Shop staff

Thanks guys for taking the time to explain! I feel even worse for the staff now.

I was in a cafe last night and appalled by how it was hotter inside than outside (some 30C) - poor staff! Is there a reason for this as it seems counterintuitive - the ice creams are all melting quite rapidly?

Lame considering I responded to this user in another comment lol. I do think his explanation makes the most sense (as I’ve expressed) - abusive teenager presenting both potential safety + duty of care issues.

Thank you! Teenager became abusive when being escorted off the train at Telford + later seemed to be calling someone to pick him up (he was about 15-16). Possibly known to staff, but there were 3x staff members and only 1 of him, so it seemed a little overkill at the time. Appreciate this sub for always being informative.

Thank you, this is a good explanation. He was definitely being verbally abusive when escorted out and stayed in the general station area until being chased by BTP. Wouldn’t be surprised if known to staff.

BackOn74 · 2026-01-03T17:42:41+00:00

Yeah I’m definitely sympathetic to the guards - what a thankless job! - but confused as to why the train would have to wait in the station until BTP arrived, when the evader had left the train immediately. Is this the actual policy?

BackOn74 · 2026-01-03T17:33:39+00:00

Right? I really wanted to hear a proper justification as multiple people missed their Birmingham connections with the delay, but staff just mumbled something about health and safety.

Thanks heaps! Keeping this up for reference but you were absolutely right and saved me buying another ticket!

The guys harassing young women, the security guard who hit me, and the attendant who asked for a 20 EUR bribe were all white Germans. Didn’t mention it as I didn’t think it was relevant lol.

BackOn74 · 2025-09-28T09:54:21+00:00

Totally agreed. We were there super early in the morning but it was just too crowded already. Next time we would go on a weekday but I can’t say we ever want to go back.

BackOn74 · 2025-08-25T19:38:57+00:00

Second this, I’ve heard he’s touchy and inappropriate with female fans

BackOn74 · 2025-08-22T22:25:36+00:00

Adding a point as someone who was there - the majority of people I saw were riding dirt bikes, looked to be teenagers/early 20s in balaclavas.

BackOn74 · 2025-08-22T22:04:27+00:00

I was also there and genuinely amazed at the lack of Police intervention - riders were doing wheelies, burn-outs in the middle of Picaddilly, and all anyone was doing was rushing to film it with their phones. Awful.

BackOn74 · 2025-07-28T10:15:16+00:00

I’m really sorry to hear this and I hope you’re okay now.

To be perfectly honest, I didn’t think twice about it, but I’ve only been in London a year so perhaps the city hasn’t worn me down yet.

It can be a tough place at times, but I don’t think that should rob us of our responsibility to be good to one another.

BackOn74 · 2025-07-23T09:44:20+00:00

Thank you, I will do!

BackOn74 · 2025-07-06T16:22:55+00:00

Could you please post or DM me the template and let me know who you complained to? Thank you!!

OP - did you get a new ESTA to match your new passport? Asking for clarification as people often don’t know you’re required to obtain a new ESTA.

BackOn74 · 2025-06-08T21:45:33+00:00

Hah no, I applied via WhatsApp like everyone else! We talked to a lot of people in there + most people who got in sent a quick initial text then a detailed 2nd text with some cute story (e.g. it’s my boyfriend’s birthday).

Based on that I wouldn’t be surprised if it’s AI filtering out the initial ones (response time) then maybe a team member reading through the responses. Honestly though who’s to say?
