Typical Workplace Conversation

"Excuse me, we're going to the Notting Hill Carnival, can we get to Ladbroke Grove station from here?"
"Normally yes, but Ladbroke Grove is closed all weekend beceause of the carnival. Go to Bayswater, Latimer Road or Westbourne Park instead."
"Are you sure?"
"Yes."
"You're really sure?"
"Yes."
He turns to his missus and whispers something. She walks over.
"Are you sure Ladbroke Grove is closed?"
"Yes."
"It's definitely closed, you're sure of that?"
"I may look like a monkey who has been stratigically shaved and dressed in an Underground uniform, but I can definitely confirm that Ladbroke Grove station is closed."

Hopefully they went to Ladbroke Grove, and then the train would have went through non-stop. Good....We should be be paid more to deal with these halfwits.
