"Revenue protection agents"
The septic cunts in train stations who stop you to check that your ticket is valid, before you get on the train and someone checks your ticket is valid, and then you get off the train and a cunt checks your ticket is valid.

(nothing against conductors on the train who do useful things like give information and check your tickets when you are sat down and it doesn't make you miss your train.)

Their attitude nearly always stinks. I understand that if you do an unpopular but necessary job like, say, policing, you would reasonably object to people taking an automatic dislike to you - your work benefits society, so maybe society shouldn't be so rude. But if your job is purely inconveniencing people then maybe the reason people treat you like shit is because your are comprised of fetid faeces on a skeleton made of bastard.

The job title sounds like a euphemism for someone who attacks people for money.

The posters in the stations probably don't help the cause "I noly aksed to chekc theer tcikets, teh nxt thign I kenw tehy whree kciknig me" say to me "we can't spell, and this job is the only thing we can do. It is ok to kick us in the head because it won't impair our brain function"




Give me an angry look when I ask you to open the gate to get my bike through will you? I'll show you. I'll complain to the internet about you, and then we'll see who's sorry.

I feel your pain
I used to commute every day and had a season ticket. Those shits were rude hostile and some times openly aggressive.

Load of cunts. They would not even let a loved one greet me on the platform after I had moved away for a long time.

Clicky

It is hard to feel sorry for them
I was on a train when a very large American chap couldn’t find his ticket. After about 10 minutes searching the RPO started to fill out the penalty charge when the yank triumphantly found his ticket and handed it over. The RPO equally triumphantly handed it back because it just the receipt, not the ticket.

“This is just a receipt, not a ticket”
“But it proves I bought one right, you can see I bought a ticket”
“No, it just proves you have a receipt”
“But I did have a ticked and here’s the receipt”
“I’m going to have to charge you the full fare plus a pen…”
“SIR, ARE YOU CALLING ME A LIER!”

Followed by a spectacular punch on the nose.

Only about half the carriage cheered.

They
always seem to take such pleasure in it too. Also, I don't see why the receipt doesn't count.

Penalty charge is a nasty thing too. Why can't I just buy the ticket.

Or even, if I have forgotten my railcard, could I not just pay the difference...

over the last few years...
... many automated ticket gates have been installed at the stations i use regularly (Edinburgh, Aberdeen) ... presumably saving staffing costs on having someone check the tickets on the platform ... except they still employ a bunch of hatchet-faced fuckers to stand on the non-platform side of the barrier to make sure that no one is dodging through ...
