JobsworthsAll over the world there are little people following the rules and being arsey because, let's face it, it's fun.
Tell us about your experiences with petty jobsworths, or, if you are a petty jobsworth, tell us how much you get off on it.

DTII was at the DTI (or, as is now, the Department for Productivity, Energy and Industry) a few weeks ago for a conference. I left the building to try and find a van that we were expecting to take back some demonstration equipment we had been displaying. I walked past the security hut. I then walked back, as the van had not come yet. The jobsworth inside the hut asked to see my badge. Fair-enough. Having seen it, he then refused me entry, for no clear reason. It took me about ten minutes to contact someone on the inside to get this pillock to let me back in. He saw me leave the building, I had my badge, but he wouldn't let me back in. Cranberry.
