I've been complained about
The school I went to between the ages of about 12-15 was reached after a 40 mile train journey every day. Since the school was mediocre, and most of the pupils inbred wankers, I spent this time generally listening to music or reading. This gets boring after a while of course, and after a couple of months I began joining in with the daily poker game. Since there were very few of us from the same school the age range was pretty much from me at about 13 to a couple of sixthformers. About six or seven of us in total.

The poker game was very innocent. We were all broke teenagers, the general raise was about five pence, and the pot was very very rarely more than about a pound. It whiled away the time though.

While in class, I got a summons from the headmistress. Arriving at her office I was informed that an old lady had complained to the school about the gambling, prostitution and filthy swearing that took place on this train journey, and had made known she suspected alcohol imbibage. The way she made it sound, it was a den of iniquity rather than just a poker game. Of course no matter how I protested, the headmistress was having none of it. Guilty I was. I was the only one identified because I still had very blond hair and at that young stage of my life wore a black leather trenchcoat over my uniform.

The next morning, having duely passed the warning on, the poker was stopped. Knowing it was an old lady I had a quick look around, and sure enough the old fucker was staring at our table with beady eyes. A really miserable looking bag she was. I was far too young and shy to either confront her or take proper revenge, but satisfied my need to do something by stepping hard on her foot in three inch heels.

Taught me a valuable lesson though. Some people will complain about absolutely anything at all

"When you wear your school uniform,
even outside of school hours, you are an ambassador for the school". According to my old headmaster... Come to think of it, we should have done whatever the fuck we liked then claimed diplomatic immunity.

You should have...
... complained about the weird old sex pest woman on the train that bothered you and your friends every morning.
