JobsworthsAll over the world there are little people following the rules and being arsey because, let's face it, it's fun.
Tell us about your experiences with petty jobsworths, or, if you are a petty jobsworth, tell us how much you get off on it.

BankersI went to the cashpoint last Sat afternoon, and there was a man standing there. He told me that he had been there for half an hour. He was on the phone, telling Lloyds about how the machine hadn't given his credit card back, with no explanation.
He didn't want to leave the machine, in case it spit his card out into the hands on any old passer-by. Lloyds were telling him that they couldn't/wouldn't do anything about it because he banked with another bank, and were refusing to do anything about it.
He couldn't cancel his card, because the cancellation number was on the back of the card, which was stuck in the machine. He was, quite rightly, very pissed off.
He's probably still there now, the poor fucker.
