    Red face Lessons learnt last night.

    Lessons learnt last night.

    • We need a lot more people collecting
    • We need to have at least 4 clip boards each so we aren’t waiting.
    • The train stations need to be covered by at least 8 people (hunt in packs)
    • We need to announce loudly why we are there to get people’s attention. (adding some humour seems to work)
    • Passing around the blocks works well, especially if you are in crap seats or gold seats where vision was obstructed.

    Before the games

    · Train stations proved to be excellent hunting grounds (who would have thought) but we were quickly swamped.
    · JB’s was packed with rugby fans and proved fruitful.

    After the games

    · The member’s tent was extremely busy and proved to be an excellent place to collect signatures.
    · Train stations once again we were swamped.
    · We managed to collect a fair few by standing on the roads out side the gates.

    20+ cocktail shots and about 8 beers in 2 hours.
    i knew there was a reason i didnt drink much.

    i thought i was going to end up in the emergency room last night because i was still sick at 11pm.
    fell asleep at about half 11 mum said and didnt wake up till my alarm went off at half 6 this morning.
    i still feel like crap and am yet to eat.
    i'm having a quiet 18th! will still be at jb's but i will only be having one or two.

    We got harassed by some wanker in a train coppers uniform for handing out theWeNeedCorners flyers I'd printed up.

    He said "You can't have a petition running here"

    "I'm not asking anyone to sign just handing these out"

    "But it says Petition"

    "NO. You're wrong look again"

    "You can't hand out printed material without the permission of the CEO of Transperth"

    Shasta pulls out a petition folder and bluffs..."OK, this is a democracy and the law says I have the right to collect signatures"

    "Well don't hand out any more printed material then" and walks off.

    Fulvio or Jehna, any opinion on this? I'd guess he was right about the flyers.

    Some of the transit guards signed ours

    and i think GIGS got 4 or 5 pages signed on the train on the way up alone.

    Tell him to piss off and actually do his job instead of harrassing people peacefully collecting signatures for a petition

    Not surprising. There's always one or two wankers on a power trip in those jobs. Probably failed the psych test for the police force.

    I saw one the other week that look like he failed the panel interview, because he ate the examining board members.
