By our mid-twenties, the average person has fair understanding that life is full of pain, suffering, grief and the inevitability of our own death. And yet there’s still room for the luxury of aggravating old wounds.
Offended by a few books. Good thing the Bible wasn’t left out also🤣🤣
Edit: The fact I’m a Catholic being downvoted for having thick skin his hilarious…
Most of the Translink staff are fine but there’s some real bigoted bastards working there.
I’ll never forget the incident where my grandmother asked a bus driver in the Europa what time the bus to Derry was at and he told her there were no buses to Derry but she could get a bus to Londonderry if she liked.
He wasn’t as fucking smart when the inspector forced him to apologise to her.
Jesus h Christ.
I love an aul military history book, tho ain’t read either of these.
Work has a book exchange. I wouldn’t even consider leaving any military history book in cos someone could take it thick.
This however appears a deliberate attempt to be a knob.
Seems like if it was done deliberately, they got what they wanted, a reaction.
Real dick move. Why can’t ppl just get along 🤷🏻♂️
I’m English. Both parents are English and I was raised in England. I’m in the NI sub Reddit because I like to see about about local culture in the different regions. This is one of those moments that I really see the local differences
I understand how divided Northern Ireland still is but this is just completely normal to me. Any workplace I’ve ever had that was majority male there’s been a small stack of books in the kitchen or break area. Approx 50% SAS books, 50% biographies of famous sportsmen.
Just to add:
I’m not saying it’s therefore OK in a Northern Irish context
