Having been a chugger I've seen my fair share of Karma
I've lost count of the number of snobby women on Kensington High Street that have tripped over/been shat on by birds/dropped all their shopping after saying something rude to a fundraiser.

I'm sorry but chuggers really piss me off. Like the ones who follow you down the street. Or worse, knock on my door at 8 in the evening.

I have spent years in customer service and am normally polite to everyone especially those in customer facing jobs as I know the shit they have to put up with. However I have had to shout at a chugger before just to get him to piss off. It's especially annoying when they are the fourth one I've encountered in a short stretch of the high street.

Rant over!

My main problem with chuggers
is the long line of them along the road. When I lived in Putney, generally walking up the high street I'd generally get approached by four or five people from the same charity.

The first one or two I'll generally be polite to, "no, sorry" and maybe "good luck though" if I'm in a good mood, but by the fourth or fifth I'll just be not even acknowledging them, because otherwise I'll just end up telling them to fuck off.

Sorry.

I sympathise with Mr Whumpus
...who is in the same sort stage of life as myself: most chuggers don't seem to understand reasoning such as "I've just graduated and am starting a job while the student loan company try to hunt me down, so I have no money to spare."

However, I have far greater contempt for the snobby women on Kensington High Street, who I think could easily make a donation without feeling any significant change in the mass of hubby's wallet. May many more birds crap upon their overpriced haircuts.
