All 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.

Much like poster "Thathitsthemark"...
I've had my fair share of run-ins with bus drivers.
Right, i used to get the bus into town EVERY weekday, and it was always the same driver. He never said much, but hey, you cant argue.
One day, totally unnanouced the fair went up 30p, i scraped around in my pockets, and was 1p short. He had seen me every weekday for the last 6 months, and wouldnt let me pay him back the day after "incase i didnt come back". I phoned up later and complained about him.
Then about 2 weeks after, on a school bus this time, the driver was at school, and wouldnt let anyone off the bus because someone had insulted him, and was sat there beeping his horn waiting for a teacher to come out and "sort us out". 3 of us had an exam, and were already cutting it close, but he was having none of it - saying it was protocol to get a name of any person who was rude to the bus driver. So yep, we fled through the emergency exit door, giggling like schoolgirls as we ran, hearing him beep more furiously than before
