Decaying society

[muffa2308]

On a daily basis I see the decay of common decency. At a work meeting and popped to Greggs for lunch. 3 street drinkers walk in a bold as brass and opened a bag and filled it with the contents of the shelves. The server said we are told to let them walk out and not to challenge them. Society is broken 😞

Maybe we should start with looking at why they are Street drinkers!

Society is definitely not what it used to be. But good on Greggs for telling their staff not to challenge people who are blatantly stealing. Nobody who is employed to work in a cafe/shop etc. should be forced to put themselves in danger for a company's profits.

I find that comment very offensive. I know you have a blunt posting style at times, but I really think you need to reconsider this post.

What about ex-forces personnel suffering PTSD, or people with mental health problems, or people who come from abusive backgrounds? Are they weak and lazy? Have they made ridiculous choices?

Seriously, please re-think your post.

Agreed!
Was a woman on tv other day saying she just cant get a job and she regrets using benefits for her boob job and a horse! She did state she also has 8 children!
Wanted to work in NHS! Heres me thinking NHS crying out for staff!

Sorry but no, I am coming at this from the other angle. I work on the high street and I am sick and tired of being abused by people under the influence of drink and drugs. I could write a book on the things I have seen. Why automatically ask why are people street drinking? Not everyone that is a street drinker has had a ‘tough life’ I’m tired of a woke society making excuses for poor behaviour.
