Grrrrr... :evil:

Just come across a right one in our security office. I have to register my access pass with security to gain access to the changing rooms/showers. I also have to register my bike, which needs a security tag. Simple enough? Oh no...

I ask innocently enough if I need a specific tag for each bike I'll use to commute on? "of course you will" was that rather curt response. "Okay, can I have 5 then" as I potentially have 5 bikes that I could commute on. I then received the spanish inquisition on why I had 5 bikes (I actually have 6...) and needed 5 security tags - erm because you said I did...

Upshot is, I've come away with one tag, which I can swap between bikes. Took 15 minutes rather than the 2 or 3 it could of.

I was soo tempted to ask how much the tags weighed... :twisted:

ha ha, i have to go to cathays park quite often, i get this all the time with the security there, even though i turn up in the same van everytime with the name of the company in huge letters down the side, the question is always asked "which company are you from?" and then get quizzed because my name isn't down only the name of the company etc etc

they're a nightmare

LMFAO. Yes, been there done that with security staff. Sadly most of them lack imagination which causes those they are meant to protect nothing but grief..
