Here in Geneva the beggers go up and down the trams with their hands out abd generally get ignored. There were a couple of 'women' who used to beg from the cars at a road junction. When the lights went red they would walk down the middle of the road begging from the drivers - they didn't even bother to pretend to clean their windows.
Chuggers in the UK are the ones that really piss me off. It must be a hrad job as being told to sod off all day must be hard but walking through Leeds is a nightmare when these lot hit the streetsRule Number 1 - Assuming that you have a valid contract in place always try to get your poo onto your timesheet, provided that the timesheet is valid for your current contract and covers the period of time that you are billing for.
