You must be kidding...
One of the guys in the office just showed me this in yesterday's Sun, I had to check the date to make sure it wasn't April 1st!
Clicky I'd love to have been in the meeting where this idea was thought up!  The thing is, in the pic the kid is at least 10 feet away from the bus stop - FAIL!! Last edited by El Saxo; 15-08-09 at 04:58 PM. |

Re: You must be kidding...
Guys guys guys...
To be fair this is just "Unit 1" In order to progress through the whole course he needs to complete such increasingly difficult tasks as: - Assembling the correct change for the £1 bus fare - Sitting in a seat that doesn't already have someone in it - Not knifing the bloke behind him in the face for asking if he could turn down his mp3 player

Re: You must be kidding...
NOT knifing him? It's a certificate from somewhere in Bury you know...

Public transport? You can keep it, and your certificates for using it.
I don't know about anyone else, but I don't want to catch 'poor'. |

Wasn't it Thatcher that said, "If a man is still riding the bus by age 30 he is a failure."
Talk about preparing kids for the future... |

Re: You must be kidding...
Don't you guys keep up with the times. This government has a mandate to increase the number of qualifications held by school leavers. A target is a target you know, it has to be reached......Of course if he had actually been given a certificate for catching the bus to SCHOOL that would have been worth having.

Re: You must be kidding...
What shocks me most about this whole thing is that anyone still reads the Sun tbh.
