    Its ok for the Fat cats to laugh all the way to the bank

    TFL transport boss Peter Hendy made £652,000 last year

    Ahhhh, I think I can see where the animosity is coming from now, because the poor tube driver are only on a £52,000 basic

    Before you go any further, you may want to read this:-

    Especially the bit about him starting off as a graduate trainee and then working his way up the ladder

    You have hit a sore point with "graduate trainees"

    We get this idiots employed at my place and most of them dont have a clue
    Because these clowns have been on some "wonder" degree course it makes it ok for them fresh out of university to be put it charge of people who have been doing the same job for years

    Any decent company promotes from within with people who have worked up through the ranks
    Not wet behind the ear ignorant x graduates

    Peter hendy's salary is obscene and offensive to any traveling passenger

    It's a democratic country. It's a choice whether you join a union or not. Of course there are people who believe the bosses should take all of the profit and workers should be on the poverty line. Mediaeval views in my opinion.
