immagration officer rant

[paintball_scots]

im on holiday in New York at the moment. got here yesterday and we go to immagration.

After getting through the huge cue were greeted by a jumped up tubby little prick by the name of Klinker, we went up to the booth to do our
fingerprints and stuff and we had'nt filled out the bottom part of the form mainly because it said goverment use only so common sense says not to fill it in.

He tells us to Gtfo , doesnt even explain what we should do so we have to go ask the immagration customer services for what to do.

So we fill out the bottom of the form and go back to him he tells us to gtfo again because my brother has a different sir name from the rest of us.

At this point my dad starts to rage saying to us "see if he was in Glasgow he'd probaly get ****in chibbed"

So we decide to not bother with him and go to the guy next to him. he was absolutely fine had a bit of a laugh and got us through too baggage with no problems he told us hes always a dick and he hates working wih him also asked about deep fried mars bars which we though was pretty awesome

tl;dr jumped up fat bloke was an ******** to us, dad said too us he'd get stabbed if he was in Glasgow.

Oh and also we went to an irish pub across the street for dinner where i think everybody was american and took classes on how to act Irish and talk Irish

The little Hitler syndrome is definately rife in the US.

Over there, if you work in most jobs you have to be sickeningly nice and polite.
If you arent a people person, your too unstable for the police force and too dumb to do anything else, you end up as a security guard or similar.



You have to remember most Americans are different creatures to you and I.

Inside their heads is an overwhelming urge to whoop and cheer and wave giant inflatable pointy fingers in the air.
So much mental effort is requred to surpress these urges, that real life goes by for them as a hazy blur of shapes and colours and sounds.

i say you deserve what you got for going to that sh** hole of a country in the first place.

I was considering holidaying in the states
However my mrs being romanian apparently has to go to the embassy in London and pay £100 for the privelage.

So fack that idea. American ****s charging entry? In this "global recession"? They are having a w4nk.

Surely £100 is insignificant compared to things like flights etc.
Compared to many places, you would save £100 per week on food and petrol.


I lived over there for a few months and I acompanied a Romanian friend when he went to pick up his visa.
Its quite amusing how the part of the building for non Americans is like some Dickensian orphanage and the part for American citizens was immaculate.

what you on about

its £100 extra on the holiday simply for the right to enter the border

you dont have to do that to go to any number of cities around europe. ergo, spend the £100 on somethnig worthwhile, like some nice meals / booze / stuff in a country that isnt a cnut to certain nationalities.

also flights to NYC around £250. so its 40% of the travel costs. which like I say can be put to better use elsewhere.

What I mean is the living costs are generally cheaper in the US compared to an equally nice european destination.

So it costs £100 for one memer of your party to enter the US.
But you might save £40 per person, per day on general costs over the course of the holiday.




Or, following your logic to the extreme, you should have a holiday in your own back garden.
With all the money you save, you can eat nothing but caviar and drink champagne.

 

[Lovetone]

I see your logic but its a matter of principal.

and I live in flat so no back garden
