Some pupils got scammed and their teacher complained to the press that ‘it wasn’t fair’ well it turns out that this is enough to get you free tickets to to see the World Cup. Perhaps I’m being harsh, they are children after all but surely it would be more productive a lesson to tell the kids that if you’re dumb and don’t check, double check, and triple check that ‘too good to be true World Cup for the kids trip’ you don’t then get your own way. Apparently British Airways are flying most of the pupils back to Germany and the head of FIFA has said they can have tickets to a quarter final match.
Perhaps I should call the BBC and tell them someone tried to open an account with Argos and a credit card with Mint in my name in order to by a ticket to the final. The trauma of opening new bank accounts and joining CIFAS, which will cause me inconvenience in the future when I try to obtain legitimate credit, can only be offset by someone bailing me out of my misery with free tickets to the World Cup.
The eagerness of companies to jump on the ‘giving’ band wagon is sickening especially when it’s not my bandwagon. I’m adamant that a better lesson would have been ‘tough shit kids your teacher didn’t check properly and you wasted your weekends for nothing, life shit sometimes deal with it.’
