Security Guards and their whistles.

[Robert_Smith]

what is it about these morons with blowing their whistles?

do they do it for the sense of power? does the uniform make them feel like they are something, even though they probably get paid less in a month than I make in an hour.

is it just to show off?

is it just to annoy people?

 

one was blowing his whistle this afternoon for nor reason at all, there was no traffic or pedestrians crossing the street, he was just blowing for blowings sake...

 

absolute wingnuts if you ask me!

 

regards,

bob.

Bob, mate, have you ever, just once in your miserable career as a human, gone outside without immediately finding something to throw a tantrum about in Thailand?

 

Yesterday it was the missing seat belts in taxis. Today it's whistles, is it? That’s the great social injustice that’s sent you shuffling to your keyboard? Not the corruption, the crime, the heat, the traffic, the pollution, the rising price of bar fines, but a man blowing a whistle?

 

So you were walking down the street, minding your own business (for once in your life, allegedly), when suddenly, a security guard had the audacity to…do his job.

 

And your first thought wasn’t something normal like “Oh, maybe he’s signaling something,” or even “Ah well, not my problem,” but rather:

 

1. “This man is doing this purely to annoy me, Blagging-Bob, personally.”

2. “I must document this outrage immediately and moan about it online.”

3. “I shall call him a moron and a wingnut and take this to the highest court of public opinion in the world: an anonymous expat forum where nobody gives a toss.”

 

Bob, you absolute whinger of the highest order, it’s a whistle FFS. This is Thailand. Noise is part of the deal. You live in a place where motorbikes with afterburners fly past your window at 3 AM, where street vendors announce their presence with loudspeakers strapped to their pushbikes, where bars pump out EDM at jet-engine decibels, but no, this guy’s little whistle is what shattered your delicate corner of blissful paradise today.

 

And the best part? We all know exactly what happened next. You didn’t just walk past and carry on like a normal person. Oh no. You stood there. You glared. Maybe even puffed up your chest like some furious little pigeon, composing in your mind your next shocking forum post about another horrific injustice you experienced in Thailand.

 

Because that’s what this always comes down to, doesn’t it? Bob vs. Thailand. Bob against the world. Every single day, some minor inconvenience sends you into a frothing rage and you go into a tizzy acting like it’s a personal attack against you.

 

So here’s a little idea for you, Bobby Blumpkin. Instead of fuming over a bloke doing his job, consider some mental health therapy for your crippling, all-consuming rage at the tiniest inconveniences. Because at the end of the day, the only person truly blowing hot air for no reason—

 

Is you.

I remember that song ,was it early 2000's?

"You can blow my whistle baby,blow my whistle baby "

[GammaGlobulin]

I actually enjoy it when Thai girls whistle at me.

Says the obsessed snowflake, the serial stalker with no life who churns out 1,500 meaningless posts a week that nobody cares about. You really can’t make this stuff up, can we, Susan?

With 16 of those hours wasted on AN, posting utter rubbish while sitting there in your tasteless Hawaiian shirt. Nice!

[EVENKEEL]

I hate the whistle blowers as well. Especially when backing in to a parking space. Can't stand em.

OP, please avoid walking under any trees.

 

I want to be spared a tirade post about how the birds crapped on you, thereby displaying good judgment.
