gwhite78 Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 For those of you like me who despise chuggers and resent your home personal space being invaded by these parasites, here's an amusing peaceful technique we all should use to spook them and ensure they're unlikely to ever return. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V2cFV8QWf-0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
code word Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 Doorstep Chugging That means something completely different in Scotland. Nice to see it was nothing more than a cold caller. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IMO A total peaeful Non Aggression Priniple (NAP) is always the best option, even when you are dealing with the very worst manifestations of modern ivilisation.

For many kids these jobs are the easiest to get, so they get them. They really shouldn't but they can't help themselves because it has the 'promise' of good money (woohoo I am going to earn 16,50 an hour! All I have to do is get 3 people to sign the form!). I used to have certain... techniques. But these days it is a courteous: No thanks. And a closed door. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harrystottle Posted July 19, 2015 Share Posted July 19, 2015 I agree. It's a rotten job and a tough way to try and earn some money. I'm becoming convinced that we are being feudalised, bit by bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(If anyone wants details to send thank you letters, glitter bombs or anything else, just ask). They are, without a doubt, the most obnoxious company I have ever worked near. They simply do not care about anyone, and are proud of their tactics. We often hear them laughing and praising themselves on the systems they use to elicit money from people and their "motivational talks", all carried out with doors open so others in the building can hear, are hideous. The management are also some of the rudest, most disrespectful people I have ever had the misfortune to meet. Just thought I'd share that! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
