I hesitate to contradict you, but trollies and I have barely a nodding acquaintanceship. Good afternoon.
Ex Brother in law of mine , Seargent in the Police , said they hated dealing with the gippos ( like these ) . They close ranks like you would not believe .
I respect them for that. Not for criminality, but for being pretty much the last community in the modern world where no one grasses. Old school values. Maybe it’s a good thing they’re dying out - maybe it’s a good thing Old gits like me are too.
Me too, was the same when I grew up, you never grass. Actually I remember some years back it stuck with me that mentality - It was at a job I was doing at the time, basically something went tits up, and the reason it happened was because someone didn't carry out a specific check. Anyway, next day, I got called into the bosses office, he wanted to know who was responsible, my simple response was, 'you know I'm not going to tell you that.' (could have been one of a number of people, but I did know who) - the reply came back, then 'I'll stick you on the warning' - you can imagine my reply 'do whatever you have to do, are we done now!?'
Yeah I had similar. Was getting treated like **** by a boss so made moved to leave the team I was in taking a drop in grade if I had to. Her boss, former TA big shot, found out and out serious pressure on me saying I was letting the team down. Just told him I wanted out as it wasn't for me and I was suffering from stress. He forbade me from leaving but I did anyway. When he found out, and someone else told him the real reason, he went apeshit. My telling him I hadn't grassed on anyone since primary school and wasn't about to start again in my mid 40s probably didn't help
The term grassing though, is it right to not call the police if you know someone has committed a crime against someone? I'd happily grass any criminal up so that the wronged party may get sone justice or their belongings back or whatever.
Breaking and entering Assault (I don't mean a fight but someone being attacked for no reason) Stealing a car Mugging I'm grassing all day long. Probably loads more, why should people be victims to these ****ers and why would people not want to help right that wrong?
Depends on what it is doesn't it? I wouldn't grass anyone up for criminal damage or something similar, but I had no qualms going to court when a good friend of mine was killed.
