Story time.
So. Yesterday during the start of my shift I had a young boy try to pay with scottish money. Call me uncivil but I had never seen a scottish note in my life, nay I didn't even know they had their own money. So playing it safe I rejected.
Later on in the evening I got a call from a very angry scott telling me what I did was illegal. I explained that I wasn't aware that scotland had its own currency which can be used throughout the UK, apologized, thanked him for educating me and assured him it wouldn't happen again. However, it became very apparant this bloke was not interested in resolving the issue but conflating it.
"Have you seen the news with Starbucks kicking out black people? You're no better, you were discriminating against my son because he's Scottish." Which is totally unfounded because his son was still served regardless. I tried to assure him that the store does not discriminate and that my coworkers include a Hindu Indian, Italian and Gay Cathlic Englishwoman. But he just wouldn't have it, he called me a fascist, bigot, racist the fucking works.
I didn't want to, nor have to, deal with his shit so I asked him to get a pen and paper and I'd give him the manager's number. "No, I'm in a car park.".... Right okay. So I asked to take his number and pass it onto the manager. He refused, saying I sound like a "psychotic weirdo" and just continued to hurl abuse. In the end I put the phone down on him, told my manager the whole story and she said if he makes a complaint or kicks up a fuss again in the future she'll report him for harassing her staff.
Money of Scotland
The currency in Scotland is not different from the rest of the United Kingdom in that it is also consists of British Pounds (Β£), although Scottish banks print their own versions. These "Scottish notes" are widely accepted throughout the United Kingdom, although cases have been reported of a few shops outside Scotland refusing them. You will, however, not have a problem when using English notes anywhere in Scotland. If you are visiting from further afield, it is usually wisest to exchange your money into the local currency.
huh, apparently we do have our own notes
How have I never noticed that
Even the Scott didn't know he has their own notes.
How the fuck was this Welshman suppose to know.
if it's just a pound anyway why do we bother
I forgot the part where he went into triggered overdrive because I called the pound "British pound"
Ah yeah
GBP
I wonder what the B stands for.
Great English Pound.
hue
Of course that's what the B stands for.
I apologize on behalf of this person
what a prick
It's okay. I ain't got nothing against Scotts.
The only people I discriminate against are assholes.
And I have concluded he's an asshole.
So I'm gonna discriminate against him based on that ground.
so I ordered that "Why Socialism Works" book, gonna give it to my dad for christmas, I think he'll get a kick out of it
*SNORT*
When did every individual become the group?
YOU REJECTED SCOTTISH MONEY
So annoying
π
It's like everyone is part of some sort of union of X. Every woman is a ALL women. Every black man is ALL black men. [sarcasm] Every Scot is... well... scottish. They'll all just a bunch of drunken layabouts. Who cares about them anyways? [/sarcasm]
at least I can post links as a lurker
Yeah it's not a totalitarian state ...yet
