As do doctors and undertakers. Some professions are mostly there to be used when something goes wrong in life.

True. I still think lawyers are a profiteering cartel of scumbags however. Look at this for example.

Barristers, Years ago, my barrister was challenging other barrister on my behalf. Couple weeks later, i found them as best of friends in the pub... Unbelieveable.

That fair enough, one I found hard was having a union issue at work, we all sat down with the union rep and told him what we wanted said to senior management, the union rep states “I can't say that I'm friends with these people".

You can still be friend friends with someone you are arguing against, you don't however, let that friendship affect your argument.

Teachers...cant believe no one has said this already

Especially the bogger ones called Mairead, Sile or Mags who are all holier than thou and smug wenches who thin they are God's gift.

And then they marry an equally smug pasty faced Garda from the Mudlands.

Ryanair Cabin Crew - Why are you telling me my cardigan, draped over my shoulder is a safety hazard?

Also that Ryanair tosspost at Faro airport. Standing there just before you board the plane, making you put your bag into the metal cage. Even when it fits in he says "No, you have to pay more money or you don't board"

Arrrrrrrgggggghhhhhhhhhh

Union Spokesmen. Blood-sucking parasites who contribute nothing to society but the carbon dioxide they exhale.

In most countries taxi driving is a low paid job for the lower classes.
Only the history of taxi regulation has over inflated their fares.

They seem to think they deserve a better wage for what is in effect a fall back job open to practically everyone in the country.

Many things inflate fares. If insurance wasn't compulsory and tax so expensive you could have a €500 banger sitting in the drive and it would be more financially viable than one taxi trip a fortnight.

They talk shop all the time.
The younger ones steal alcohol and food from housemates - or from strangers at parties.
They park in your space/ block your car.
They think that their crap old 3 series BMW is a babe magnet.
They think they are god.
They think that there is a doctor discount by short-changing others at dinner out.
They dodge rounds.
They have an allergy to parting with money, so other people can pay.

If you can get over all that, they’re grand. Cos they’re great craic.:rolleyes:

Critics! F*cking can't stand them.

Their job essentially is to critique things they're clearly unable to do themselves, which really is pathetic. Especially film critics.

physios? what did they ever do on anybody?

The ones I have interacted with weren't very helpful.

They don't do scans so they seem to guess what the problem is and tell you exercises that should fix it. I get told it "could be" blah, blah(five or six different things).

How can you fix something when you don't know what the problem fully is yet?

Ah only took until page 6. I thought it would be a more specific GP hate though as opposed to all docs :P

The medical profession is a noble and beneficent profession. As a society, we would be in a bad way without doctors.

But I hate the type of people who become doctors, and I’ve known lots of them.

Some of them are okay.

physio is a very inexact science so a lot of the time its just educated trial and error. Also a lot of them wouldnt have scanning equipment available to them so they would have to try and manage without it or labor the patient with the cost of a referral

Antisocialiser

Why do people hate solicitors and barristers?

Seriously curious.

Also, Psychics/Mediums etc (that claim to be)

I don't think I need to go into how I feel about them.

Absolute scum. Oh.

To be honest I'd prefer initially paying more to get a scan and be shown exactly what the problem is.

You know, I've got nothing particularly against GPs. In fact, I'll have revise my opinion really, because most GPs I've come across are pretty decent individuals. I don't know for sure, but GPs probably make up most of the profession as well.

But I still hate the rest of that medical shower. Hospital doctors, ugh.

You could look at it that way. As I say, it's the way they act outside of work that annoys me. There is a certain: "I'm a doctor, pay me tribute" attitude that is particular to doctors.

Im sorry you've had such bad experiences with them. Some of course are clowns but any of the lads/girls I know are dead sound i.e. would always be the first to get the round in and have no sense of entitlement.

I hope to be a hospital doc some day - I dont mind people having a bad opinion of the profession as it's a thankless job by times but someone has to do it

Clampers. They're actually not even human beings in my eyes.

Ticket Wardens .... You're taking up too much space and oxygen sir.

Sales Reps .... You might as well just say you're a volunteer at Roar promotions.

TV license inspectors ...... "TV license ??" ... "Eh yeah ... **** off ??"

Band and media types who complain about file sharing and downloading when no one really agrees with them.

I used to do door to door selling sky tv and airtricity
