Census follies

Nov 12, 2009 12:50

Those who cannot get access to LJ at their job often Gchat me their observations of life. Here you are!

teratologist: A loud person in the office behind me is confused by the fact that census people are legally allowed to stop by your house and that this does not constitute "stalking" or even an unusual situation.
She's asking her interlocutor "What do I do?" You answer the nice census lady's questions, numbnuts.
She's been going on about this for over fifteen minutes now.

teratologist: There's three people in the office and they're all engaged in an epic struggle to figure out what the hell the census is! Using the vast powers of the internet!
All us rednecks knew what the census was! It was the people who came by who weren't the JWs!
I'm out of exclamation points and despair.

teratologist: She threw out the questionnaire!
What the fuck is this unnatural bubble-like Manhattanite existence bullshit?

teratologist: Ok, so with a crack team of five people and google, they talked this girl into calling the poor census taker back and complaining about it being "invasive".

teratologist: One of the people was her lawyer.
Shit.

teratologist: "I understand you have a job to do, but get a better job where you don't have to invade people's privacy!"
