I used to drive a vehicle at work worth around 5 million pounds, don't hear me banging on about it, because nobody cares!

I use the intranet ....oh my trousers have a zip, the guy who made that must be rich. Riding on the shoulders of giants

No, you don't. Lets assume you were working for 8 hours. That would mean you've spent 7m15s on each car.

That 7m15s includes walking between the cars, getting the keys for each one (I assume they're kept somewhere semi-securely?).

Unless you work in a car wash that exclusively valets TTs and A6s and you 'drive' the cars 20 meters each I can't see how you could possibly manage it.

I assume there's some nugget of truth in there... but why exaggerate so unconvincingly?

You joined in 2008... How long has your hiatus been to not know the joy of a 'warped thread'?

Warped, thank you for helping me appreciate that no matter how insane I get, there are sadder individuals convincing even fewer people of their delusions.

Playing devil's advocate, he may have a job loading cars onto transport ships (or off). However, those mostly go to older chaps who aren't mental.

Grimsby docks is apparently the UKs largest car handling port - BBC article click here.

Allegedly it's also the place where fish fingers can be welded to within fractions of an inch whilst standing in sewage.

I've worked in a couple of distribution centres.... and with the amount of cars moved around daily it would not be possible to put all the keys somewhere semi-securely (can you imagine how much space 20,000 sets of keys would take up or the time it would take to find a particular set).... so the quickest and easiest way is to leave the keys in the ignition of all the cars.

Not sticking up for Mark or anything, just wanted to clarify that little bit.

Oh and for the record, the cost the government puts on a human life is £1.5 million.... so during rush hour I'd be driving around with £100 million of meat screaming and shouting behind me

Is that 1.5 mill the total of the taxes we'll pay in our lifetimes? That's probably the only reason murder is illegal.

You just haven't worked out how the karma system works. Razz

Being warped brother/lover, he's probably got more enemies than you so I wouldn't worry about it too much.

There's always some nugget of truth - I don't think he has the imagination to do it all by himself.

The geyser kraft incident... he worked in a factory.
All the hot girl stories... he once was told to cock off by a girl.
The welding... he's seen someone weld.
This one... he or someone he knows moved a car.
