Buses
I'm a bus driver amongst other things. Though, I'm currently on enforced leave, after trying to fit a bus through a gap that was just that little bit too small...
Well, I thought it'll fit!

» Karma

Long time listener, first time caller
*POP!* I’ve been lurking in B3ta since Noah built a rowboat, I finally created an account.

My story of Karma,

I work in many jobs, one of these many moons ago was decommissioning IT infrastructure after the dot bomb era, testing and junking what didn’t work. One time, there was a brilliant internet server, which was “junked” to the boot of my car. I used it for several years as a hosting service for the red light district.

Righteo, onto the karma bit. Since then, I’ve only managed to have one relationship. It turned out to be a nightmare at the end of it (I was on first name basis with the night shifts of my local police station, the neighbours kept calling them on us!).. And I’ve been unable to get lucky at all since the end of that relationship

Length, Please be gentle, it’s my first time.

» Cringe!

and another
This question's tailor made for me.

This one was reminded to me, just after Movember finishes for another year. I was told that whilst on the beer, I'd said to a female friend that she'd grow a better moustache than I could.

» Have you ever seen a dead body?

Emergency Services Volunteer
I'm a member of the State Emergency Service in Victoria, Australia. We do flood and storm, as well as road accident rescue.

As a result, we're usually early on the scene after car accidents, amongst other emergencies, so one has to deal with it fairly often. Probably the worst dead body I've unfortunately had to see, or deal with, was in Frankston, a suburb in the south of Melbourne. Frankston is generally full of bogans and such (not too dissimilar from chavs, but equally as stupid), especially in the northern part, and along the railway line. A guy in his mid twenties happened to be on the railway right of way one afternoon. In front of a 40-car steel freight train. We picked most of him up with a shovel.

There's been others, and one of my fellow members once had to deal with a friend being involved in a fatal accident. We are fortunate that there is counselling available, and that the SES does look after their members.

With regards to length, it was 40 cars long, and travelling at 80km/h.
