While rambling on about my beloved friends the Curry-munchers, it suddenly came to me that we actually have an immigrational occupation issue in this country.
I mean, you read a credit application form filled out by our ethnic friends. Under “occupation” the Italian puts “Concreter”, the Curry muncher puts “Taxi-Driver”, the Maori puts “Scaffolder”, the Greek puts “Shop-keeper”, the Vietnamese put “Farmer”, the Romanian puts “Doctor”, the Japanese put “Student”, The Pommie puts “Store-man”, and and the list goes on.
What goes on here, are the Italian Concreters a legacy of Roman building times? Sounds feasible, even Japanese Students always learning, I have no problem with that. The Greeks have always seem to fancy the “Fish-n-Chips” or the “Fruit” shop, so that seems normal enough to me. History tells us the Greeks were great traders. I can also understand Vietnamese market gardens in a flower pot, but i am fucked if i can understand how the curries scored the role of taxi-driver!
