Is it time to get a Gun ?
-
That's John M's area......time to get a part-time gig with your local Shan Mohangi or Soon Phat deliverer.
-
No Army, No Gards , next it will be Taxi Men

Shan Mohangi
Does he work for 98fm?
-
Recruiting more Yellowpacks..........pushing the guys and gals on big poke out..........nice WAT for 40k etc etc...
19 sub-units in a country this size???? The old Dublin Metropolitan Police boys sons and daughters must be laughing at the 5' 2" hybrids being mass produced for the job....
-
I doubt they'd pass the test.Nothing to worry about.
-
A simple matter of pressing one button in 4.....if indigenous drivers think it's difficult there are many from afar who prove them wrong. A Chimp can pass an online Mensa test now.......
-
I thought you sat the new test with yer giant fukking brain Ll?
Multiple choice are only easy if you know the answer.Even if statistically you got 25% or even 50% by accident correct by guessing.....the pass mark is still is 75%.You gambling lads aren't great with the sums.Gerup the yard..
-
You see Merc, ...no giant brain required or claimed,....as you correctly avered once, being articulate has fuck all to do with intelligence and I agree.....I couldn't possibly pretend to be able to figure out what made Pythagoras or Kingdom Isambard Brunel tick.....because I'm ok with being limited....the test is a money racket as we both know, but a curried parsnip would get it right eventually without knowing anything about Dublin...as several chaps posting here have proven.
-
If both of us are wrong, Merc....could it be argued there's an algorithm running different questions based on a person's birthplace. Bear in mind, IBM could determine a person's ethnicity long before Big Blue kept beating Kasparov et al....
-
It can be beaten but still needs some study.
When I failed mine and went back for the resit I deliberately didnt learn the names of every school in the city.Too much effort.So I was prepared for one question to be wrong.As it turned out there was no question on about them in my second sitting.I did have some easy ones that repeated.
I think it's random but you never really know for sure.One thing I am sure of is it's not the amazing job the candidates think they're getting themselves into.

A drunk lady leapt into a taxi stark naked. AliBaBa, the Indian taxi driver made no attempt to drive off.
"What's wrong with you Luv, haven't you ever seen a naked woman before?"
"I'll not be staring at you lady, I am telling you, that would not be proper, where I am coming from..."
"Well, if you're not bloody staring at me Luvie, what are you doing then?"
"Well, I am looking and looking, and I am thinking and thinking to myself, where is this lady keeping the money to be paying me with"
-
Swipe your card through that luv!!

The new test is a bit tough alright......give you that, but it's pro-symmetric based and therefore is not wholly reliant on memory or intellect. Too many people who can't string a sentence together passing for algorithms to be dismissed.
