A Public Vote On Chuggers
I know it’s only a newspaper poll on this page in Her Majesty’s Daily Telegraph, but it does give a definite result. On the subject of chuggers, where 641 have voted, 621 voted to say that a crackdown on chuggers was necessary and only 20, has said their tactics were sometimes necessary. This means that 96.88% are in favour of a crackdown.
So I think that this animosity, doesn’t do charities any good!
As I’ve said before, I never support any charity that I see chugging.
These days too, I usually have a few pound coins in my pocket for coffee, good buskers and worthy tins waved in front of me
I was a chugger for a while, it’s good pay but I hated the job so I left. It’s horrible. People are really rude and I figured I’d do better for the charity doing sponsored events and such…

I’ll admit I’ve been rude on occasion to chuggers. But what do you say when someone surprises you after you’ve just had a stroke and can’t see properly? luckily, there was no accidents.
I now make sure, I avoid areas, where they work. I always wonder what would happen if the Save The Tiger ones, paraded outside the Chinese embassy.

Haha that would be pretty entertaining. I know, I was once running to get somewhere and one stopped directly in my way and was like ‘do you have a minute?’
I’m sorry but does it look like you have a minute when you’re legging it down the street?!
I think I was just overly aware of how annoying I was being as a chugger and perhaps that’s why I wasn’t cut out for it.
