Prejudice
"Are you prejudiced?" asks StapMyVitals. Have you been a victim of prejudice? Are you a columnist for a popular daily newspaper? Don't bang on about how you never judge people on first impressions - no-one will believe you.

Cabbie shopping...
We don't know what the license number is unless we ask (and they usually won't give because they know something is up, then). We don't TELL them that we're going to shop them (that would be somewhat dim), we get a receipt for the journey along with the same journey from the same firm without guide dog as a "control". If it's different, bingo. And obviously cab companies know who did what job when from their own records, which they have to give up if asked by the licensing bods.
We were contracted by the local council as mystery shoppers a coupla years back - the licensing office had had many complaints from guide dog owners in town and wanted to ferret the guilty ones out officially. We went through the local cab firms like a dose of salts. Ho hum.
