Okay, Some people call me a bit of a loner, others say I am unsociable, i beg to differ, I like my own company and like to work alone simply because people annoy me. I find there is nothing more stupid than the general british public, they are like lemmings, they are dumb and generally I try to avoid them whenever possible. Here is the reason why, I stumbled upon REAL British customer complaints to Thomas Cook the holiday agents about why they have had a bad holiday. I only pray some of these are wind ups, however I have a feeling that most of these are actually genuine callers that expected compensation or an official appology. So sit back and enjoy British stupidity at its finest
