What would need to be your personal situation to be working class as opposed to middle class ? |

I hope your friend does not hold it against you for bringing him down and preventing his rise to stardom. Maybe he would have done better at Tesco where it would appear even the lowliest can become stars in their own lunchtime |

Errol. There are other supermarkets. Never mentioned one in particular. It could have been Kwiksave - didn't Albert Gubay have a degree in modern languages? |

I'm not a 'diamond geezer', I speak perfect English, and can do a variety of dialects - even 'posh' ones (called survival as a child due to moving so often), but I'm afraid I don't suffer fools gladly, and if someone who earns 3 times what I earn feels he/she can patronise me, as they think they are 'better' purely because of their income - they soon learn I won't claim 'ignorance' to massage their ego, and their income doesn't mean they know more than me, or are any better. |
