Yes, it’s their job. And that means they *chose* to do it, so no sympathy from me.

That’s not true, unfortunately. I was once sat in a pub when a stranger offered me a tankard of ale. I heartily accepted, until I found the King’s shilling at the bottom. I was thrown screaming into a potato sack, and woke up the next morning chained to a telephone, while the slavemaster beat his cruel drum.
Luckily I escaped. But that’s another story, for another time.

It was indeed. I did say it was a CRUEL drum… But only with success were we fed scraps of bread and fungus. We sold or starved.

Urgh. I was accosted in the supermarket today by a man with a smile far bigger than his face. He tricked me by saying ‘would you just look at this for a minute?’ and about 5 seconds later I heard the word ‘credit card’ fall out of his mouth. I just said ‘see ya’ and walked off, which he found hugely amusing. Weirdo.

This is how it goes in my house.
“Hello Mr GreenThing, I am pleased to announce you have won a holiday to the foreign destination of your choice”
“Thankyou, however I do not have a passport and under the current circumstances it is highly unlikely that I will be allowed one”
“Sorry to have troubled you Sir”

Just had a phonecall:
“Hello, is that Miss Sarah Kennedy?”
“Yes, speaking.”
“I am calling from HSBC, may I take your date of birth?”
“Um, why?”
“I am calling from HSBC.”
“So you said. Why do you want my date of birth?”
“It is a matter of security. I am calling from HSBC.”
“Well, how do I know that?”
“Know what, Miss Kennedy?”
“That you’re calling from HSBC.”
“I am calling from HSBC Miss Kennedy. I need you to answer the security questions.”
“Well, for my own security I’d rather not give out my personal information to a stranger.”
“But I cannot tell you why I am calling if you do not give me the answers to my security questions.”
“And I cannot give you my security answers until you tell me why you are calling.”
“I am calling from HSBC.”
:rolleyes:
