What are you babbling about? Do you think I'm Ashley Cole?

I used to work with LT when he was manger at Heathrow (5 years ago) and there was a Yank called Matt who was area manager. Between the two of them it was bloody nightmare! I wasn't there long.

Matt was in tears the day I quit, not because I was a hard worker, but because he had "just bought a house" and as his retention was shit it meant he might be demoted....

I don't remember his last name but would love to know what that prick is doing now! Is he still with the green machine?

I think he's still there. Were you working for Luke when all the cars went walkabout after the keys were left out in an open office?

Yes, that was extremely funny! I think it was two or three Vauxhall Omegas. The day after, Matt and Luke were so stressed out!! It was entertaining to watch...but then also sad that these people were my superiors! Shortly after this incident Luke got moved manage another branch.....how he was kept on after this I do not know!! Is Luke an area manager now? lol!

Heathrow was just a disaster to work at. I remember we had a leaky roof for months with water going all around the lights, because Matt and Luke didn't want to fix it (of course this would eat into their profits...). When bringing in customers we had to make sure no-one walked under the drops of electricity water!!

Luke got moved to Guildford when that came up. Before he went there it was a making an absokute mint, but as soon as he walked through the door it started dropping. However, the place was making so much cash already that even he couldn't screw it up to the extent that meant when an area manager position came up he was the clear favourite.

I remember Gerry the U1 driver telling me about how he went to pick up some cars from there and Luke was eating cornflakes but forgot to open his mouth and poured a spoonful down his face and clothes!!!

He's doing well!!! LOL!

I am glad someone from u2 has mentioned Dave Parrot. As well as the nose all he does is Squawwk bribes, bullshit and bad management. He has a keen smell for anarchy in the ranks and will find out what your toilet pattern is by GENTLY leaning on his other apparently loyal staff.

Dave would be a better manager if was a little more trusting, trustworthy and listened when you spoke. Watch out for the head nodding when you are talking to him, and also your words going in one ear and straight out the other. A good manager listens to his staff and can communicate on all levels....

BEWARE

Just so he can keep his eyes and ears in more places Dave has recently split himself in 2. His 2nd half 'mini me' now disguises himself as a mid-twenties, white male, living in the Erdington area, who claims to be your colleague, friend and supporter.

Do not be fooled by the camp voice on the end of the telephone, he is just as ignorant, self-centered and full of Green Rubbish as his other half.

Money... money.. money.. something funny... in ERAC world..
