Default So much for the rules on ticket collection

Signs over every desk and all over the front of the ticket office saying "PASSPORT ID ONLY"...
I was in line for less than 5 minutes yesterday, I heard the following stories in that short space of time:
"No, he's on holiday, so can't be here and I don't have his passport"
"My Grandad is 80, he doesn't have a passport, so I'm going in his place"
"My passport is off for renewal, I don't have 6 months left on it"
"I can't find my passport, but it's me that's going"

...and all got tickets. Why bother?

So you post a thread on getting a ticket and post a thread about getting euro's in advance...

Going to the final perchance?

Absolutely. My old man picked them up today, got 3 that he had passports for, the 4th is paid for, in an envelope on a birds desk waiting for the lad to go back with his passport.

Unfortunately, the lad whose ticket it is doesn't share the name of the ST holder despite him having the ST for 5 years...

yes but not for that reason, they are more likely to do what you want under pressure. the guys are better at the jobs and wont be arsed and the older ones are bitches but the young girls dont know what there doing as much and are more likely to try to avoid confrontation and give you what you want(minus the bj behind the desk)

Every single person seems to be kicking off in here when they get to the window. Good job they've got the glass-one lad would have been over the counter if he could! Bitch was having none of it.

Not looking good for me.
