Speed posting - key points from yesterday's food bank session -
1. They made us all sign indemnity waivers, people felt a bit put out. Also signed away photographic rights.
2. Old guy told me he went to Stamford Bridge after work in the 1960s and saw Peter Osgood's first team debut, scoring both goals in a 2-0 victory over Workington Town in a Cup replay
3. The same old guy was later propositioned by a drunk middle-aged client with facial tattoos, who touched his hand and asked if he could "take him home and shag him". I totally failed not to piss myself laughing.
4. Client-facing team reports a small increase in "entitled" behaviour from clients. You always get one or two fussy eaters sending stuff back, I actually quite respect that, it's dignified in some way, and we certainly don't expect them all to tearfully thank us, but it seems a growing minority of clients don't really differentiate between charitable food banks and government social services, it's all just one big blob of people who have let them down or screwed them over at some point.
