The fact that your old boss took the radios out of the vans is a classic, and a sign to move on.

Incidentally, the transit I bought from him has had the radio removed. 😂

I do love a bit of classic country on the way home after a good day. 
This is a great singalong if you’re old enough to remember it.

I also brood in silence in the mornings, on the way home I listen only to The Fall.

It was my first year in the job. I was keen to learn, the first job straight out of college ended badly after a couple of months. 
This (second) boss was old school, he didn’t much care for me (it was mutual)

He abhorred new fangled stuff like top handled saws (bloody flat iron saws boy!)

Chippers (load the wood on the truck)

Dealing with women, referring to them as “the female party said to me…etc

 But…he knew the job backwards. 
It’s where for a year I kept my mouth shut and my eyes open (for a change)

 

So I let the small indignities slide.

It’s only me who likes talking radio programs about anything, i lesson music only during the work!

I work for a company where one of the drivers put a subwoofer under the seats in the transit. 

Drum and bass first thing really got you in the mood to crack on with the job.

Sounds like the old codger I first worked for.  The owner of the “020”

 

Used to drive me mental, hated blacks, gays and everything in between, couldn’t read or write and was married to his cousin, but he knew his trees.

 

I kept my gob shut and cracked on, after a year and a half I had had enough when he prodded me in the chest one morning for something that had happened the day before.

 

I lost it with him and had a few choice words to say.  He never prodded me again and I left soon after.

 

@Mike Hill also worked for him back in the noughties.

 

😜

 

Fun times eh Mike?
