Colleague- possible charity scammer

[keybored]

skydiving bellends, come on. there's no competition there.

We've all had that guilty, fleeting hope that their chute might just fail, haven't we?

 

[killer b]

yeah, apart from the 'guilty' or 'fleeting' bits.

 

[farmerbarleymow]

I’d go with the work dress up enforced jovility and collection tins. I just can’t...

These people should be defenestrated from the nearest skyscraper.

We will have a wear a Christmas jumper day and I will for once, out of a sheer desire for survival, wear one.
A Karl Marx type jumper is on its way.

Ok. "Burning desire".

Can't you get (or knit) one that has 'santa is a cunt' on it?

 

[Edie]

There’s this one I want to do. It’s a three day walk for Mind across the Scottish highlands. I like the charity, and I so badly wanna do the walk and be in a group (could never do it on my own). But despite all that I just cannot bring myself to raise funds. I just cannot ask people to feel obliged to pay for me to have a holiday

I must see a photo of this. I want to see the hate in your eyes.

You have done it now.
I'm in for a tenner (straight up).

I will consider showing the selfie I will be obliged to Yammer holding a note with the amount I have raised whilst wearing the jumper.

Or maybe this understated one...

I bet there is an urb who can!

 

[D'wards]

Can any of the U75 church-going contingent confirm nor deny that churches collect for Children in Need?

I thought they have their own Christian Aid or new roof bollocks fish to fry normally.

That is really full on!

 

[Lord Camomile]

People who relentlessly collect for charity at work live for the thank you letters and certificates that get given out.

I do a few every now and again, and have to say this thread has nudged me to remember to share receipts and certificates and the like! I always forget, but obviously it's good practice.

I don't think food banks don't really give receipts, so they're just gonna have to take those ones on faith

I am speculating admittedly but I think all their activities money raising wise are for bibles and church stuff. Plus for legal fees lately.

 

[existentialist]

I think you are all being cruel, this innocent girl dressing up and prancing around for the sake of charity is undoubtedly an angel of purity, how you could suspect her of wrong doing is beyond me, anyone who dresses up to seduce their work colleagues to make small donations to save children should be beyond criticism. What oh what are you thinking?

Whatever anyone else says, I think it was shocking that they removed the word "gullable" from the dictionary

No they would like that jumper. Worse, they would like me more for wearing it.

Count me in for a tenner. But I want photos. And a certificate.

Churches or church congregations can collect for literally anything they choose to.

This'un?

There's another one doing the rounds, but can't remember what was on it.

Don't forget to insist the walk is done in a Pudsey outfit.

(If this is genuine, sans Pudsey, I'd be in for a tenner too)

Nope. If she does the walk in a Pudsey outfit, I'll be generous and make it 10p.

Well it's a jumper rather that sweatshirt and in rusty red rather than green but essentially yes.

That's the one I was looking for, but found that and couldn't be bothered looking past the first link

Plus GPS tracking. So we can (monitor) enjoy your walking experience remotely.
