Hi to you all just curious about nick names used Dishlicker comes from following the grey hounds(not owning one)and just like there nick name how about the rest of you how did it come about cheers
My nick name was placed apron me by a work colleague when oneday was asked where such and such was, he said to the other driver ask Radar over the two way radio he will know and it stuck like glue. Mostly to do with deliveries around the Sth. East Qld area.after 20 years of working in the area there was not much I did not know and the younger drivers needed help. Ralph, Radar it has its similarities.
Thanks guys some times on a trip the one that must be obeyed and i will go to a country greyhound race and have a dinner and a small wager havent won anough to fill the tank yet but who knows cheers
Interesting Question. My parents called me Jennifer My sibling called me Jenny and somewhere along the the way they started calling me Jenza The R & L are initials of middle and last names. Hence Jenzarl.
I Have stuck with it because I never get the box that that says "that username is taken"
Worked with a bloke call Ted once. When I asked why he was called Ted since that was not his real name his reply was that it's short for sh** head after a mistake he made at work one day.
Well I believe that my father gave me mine when I were a little tackler because I liked " woody wood pecker " Woody

There was a drilling/blasting company in the Pilbara called Cervan. The full crew of 35-45 staff were ALL known by nicknames with the exception the office administrator Helen.
Dealt with some these people for over 15 years & never heard them called by their real name, many came about due to mistakes they had made like Diesel after filling the bosses Landcruiser with petrol.
Had a call from a bank while I was a manager of 12 staff asking for a bloke named "Brian" told her sorry nobody here of that name, later found out that I had been doing his pay sheets for 2 years under the name of "Stubby" & even his mum called him by that name, short round & full of beer. Now many years later when we speak on the phone he sarcastically say's "good afternoon this is Brian speaking"
