They are everywhere in Edinburgh. Ah, never heard them called that before. They are annoying as f**k. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of those people who leap in front of you in the street and try to make you feel guilty for not contributing to whatever worthy cause they're being paid to raise money for this week. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jmothecat Posted May 8, 2017 Share Posted May 8, 2017 I had a job interview to be one when I was a student, basically chummed one for the day. They were absolute twats. They were raising money for Sense Scotland that month (a genuinely worthy charity by the way) and the guy I was buddying said 'yeah when they told us we were getting blind and deaf children I instantly went online and bought a new iPhone, nothing better for getting the old biddies to sign up.'Got the job, told them I didn't hate myself enough to become one. I liked the idea of working in a way that might help people but found it was purely selling and using charity as the reason to exploit people (particularly older people). I can see why the charities hire these agencies but they really piss me off. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hedgecutter Posted May 8, 2017 Share Posted May 8, 2017 Folk leaving your office window open over the weekend so that you come in on Monday to find a bird's nest on your bookshelf. F*** sake. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjw Posted May 8, 2017 Share Posted May 8, 2017 Folk leaving your office window open over the weekend so that you come in on Monday to find a bird's nest on your bookshelf. F*** sake. One of our guys moved a bin that hadn't been touched for a while last week.He nearly keeled over when a wee bird flew out.ETA Signs you didn't expect to see at work thread for this pish. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miguel Sanchez Posted May 8, 2017 Share Posted May 8, 2017 There's invariably millions of these charity wanks on Byers Road. One tried to stop me one day. "Sorry, I start work in two minutes." "This'll just take one minute." Naw. f**k off. If I could ever be bothered I'd ask the Shelter folk on Argyle Street what they make of folk building nests out of cardboard and sleeping bags in empty shopfronts a hundred yards from where they're trying to stop folk. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
invergowrie arab Posted May 8, 2017 Share Posted May 8, 2017 Some lassie got me stopped one day to talk about donating to amnesty international. I asked her exactly how committed she was to amnesty to be asking me for money at which point she lifted her top up to show me the amnesty tattoo on her back which left me looking a bit of a c**t. I'm still paying my 3 quid a month even yet. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe not that committed. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stellaboz Posted May 8, 2017 Share Posted May 8, 2017 I just witnessed some stupid old Diddy go onto a busy roundabout then stop and wave traffic coming onto it from the next entrance that has no right of way. Although it sped up my time to get home, this ridiculous peice of driving annoys me. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmothecat Posted May 8, 2017 Share Posted May 8, 2017 I remember being stopped by an amnesty fundraiser when I was walking with my daughter. She said 'oh what a cute baby' then looked at me with an expression of genuine concern and asked 'is she yours?'I think they obviously give the amnesty international ones a bit too much literature. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have a system that the whole country can use and everyone knows where they stand with regards to who has right of way, why do these idiots feel the need to mess with it as they usually end up causing more problems.

jmothecat Posted May 8, 2017 Share Posted May 8, 2017 Were you wearing your Tony Blair - Kazakhstan Tour t-shirt? No. I look quite a bit younger than I actually am so for some reason some people have difficulty with the notion of me having a child. I mentioned my daughter in conversation with someone I had only recently met a few days ago. She said 'you are too young to have a child, my daughter is the same age as you.'I said 'OK'She said 'yes, studying hard for her exams at the moment.' Which made me wonder how old she thinks I actually am. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All was well at this point until the lady realised she had made a c**t of where she wanted to go. I shook my head in disbelief as she pretty much stopped dead and contemplated where she was going now. If anyone had been following her they'd have piled right through her.

Mind you, it was my dad's funeral procession. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe it's because you're incredibly ugly and they can't believe that any female would have sexual intercourse with you. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
