My encounter with a census workers

[bodecea]

did you read it?.....the minute Pixie told her "I DONT LIVE HERE"....and was told why her mom was not there....the Census lady should have said 'im sorry to hear that,i will come back at a later date"....END OF FUCKING CONVERSATION....as far as im concerned Pixie was to nice to the woman.....

you moron. Pixie made up the story. How gullible can you be? Pixie is a 'he' in the story. Pixie is not going to tell us why shim(he/she) was home, but then goes on to tell us about a worry, a sister, a mom and a hospital emergency. She/he's all over the place in this fable.

Go to hell, you little bitch!

my sister had a brain aneurysm. She had surgery yesterday. I was not home , I was at my Mother's house when this happened, not my own. Oh and by the way this was in a different state.

That is what made this worse. I do not even know why I waste my time with some of you freaks on this forum. You are not normal in any way

Well, aren't you the one who brought this "story" to the boards?

 

[Anguille]

Should we call her a 'Censless' Worker"

I questionaire if that would be good form.

If you think Pixie is fabricating her experience, don't beat around the bush...spit it out.

Blame the victim? From a liberal? Desperate times mean desperate measures from the left I see. Any idiot that thinks every Census worker is mentally balanced, good natured and responsible is dreaming. If you give out your information without checking the ID of a Census worker your asking for trouble too. Thanks for sharing this useful information Pixie.

I am referencing her complaint about why she would waste her time on this forum...it begs the question...why would she start the thread in the first place then.


And yes...I won't beat around the bush...I don't believe her story. Period.

If this were a true story(and I don't believe it is), what does it say about the local people? That's who gets hired temporarily for this kind of work....

Her complaint wasn't with the board, but people like yourself. Pretty clear to see. YOUR the PROBLEM and people like you. Sounds like you have the makings of one of these Census workers being discussed though.

I guess you aren't aware that hospitals actually have these funny little things called visiting hours...even for family.

Fine. You don't believe her for some reason. I do as she has a great track record of honesty. Stalemate. Now what?

...She did not identify herself.....

So how do you know she was actually a census worker?

Because I decided to take the initiative and looked at her clipboard

Do none of you consider the fact that I am VISITING HERE??? AND that my Mother is at t.he hospital day and night with my sister and these freaks are pushing the limits of their power to such an extreme that they did not see the need to identify themselves, first and foremost.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

i'm working for the census. the first thing they are supposed to do is identify themselves and show ID. you should definitely file a complaint with the local office. i've found that most people have been very nice or at least tolerant of my intrusion on their space. the only question that i personally find intrusive is one regarding home ownership, but most people don't even blink.

sorry you had such a crappy experience.

 

[del]

And just think, instead of shooting them, you could have just mailed in the form instead!


Better go buy some more bullets then!

My Mom DID mail in the form.

These people looked like they crawled out from under a rock, it was like I was in a special episode of deliverance

And they did NOT identify themselves, I am out in the real boonies here

Um.... They were not census workers. Do you not watch the news?
I heard on the news about 20 times, that they will not come to your house if you fill it out. And it is a scam if they do.

actually, i've gone to a few houses where the people said they filled it out. if the census bureau didn't get it on time, they'll come to your house.

you should bake a pie, just in case

 

[del]

Good grief. I think if you call the Census office they'll pull that bitch off the beat ASAP.

Maybe they were just pissy from having people give them attitude and refuse to answer any questions.

but yeah, they should be much more nicer and respectful. But I wonder how many people treat them like shit

so far, none.

Right.
And what makes you think her clipboard wasn't a fake?

If someone sketchy showed up at my door asking questions about who lives in the house and they did not show me an ID badge, I'd shut the door and report it to the police.

And the LAST THING you want to do is tell a stranger with no ID that the owner is in the hospital.....I smell a scam, possible casing of the premises and the OP is so fogged by hatred of the government that she fails to see the real issue.

or maybe she's upset because someone she loves is in the hospital undergoing a life threatening procedure? that couldn't possibly be, could it?

nahhh

douche

First of all, I would not be a Census worker of her area....seems to me (if her story were true), she has a beef with the kind of people in her mother's home town/county. But if I were a Census worker...I'd have my ID, I'd be polite, I would not make demands, and I would follow the policy laid out by a few people here who ACTUALLY work for the Census.

Really? Can I see it, please?

So yesterday, I was at my Mom's house, in the most socialist state of our country. Why I am here is irrelevant.

Anyway, this woman knocks on my Mom's door, and I was almost afraid to answer it because she looked like some sort of creek creature/methhead?????

I opened the door and she started grilling me immediately, "who are you,?" "Why are you here?" "wheres the woman of the house?" She did not identify herself,and I had to look at the clipboard she was carrying before I realized that she was a census worker aka redcoat.

I told her I was at my mothers house and I dont live here so I could not answer her questions. She persisted, and I said it it none of your damned buisness what I am doing here. She then told me that I MUST tell her. MUST.

I became quite enraged at this point and told her that my is mother at the hospital with her daughter who is undergoing a life threatening procedure. Then I told her to get out of my face.

In the next post I will tell you of my second encounter with said census worker AND her husband AKA another census worker, on the same property, the following day.

Needless to say, I am livid, considering what is happening to my sister and my families state of affairs

I'm guessing you exaggerate. A Lot. Since you've already made it clear that you would be one who refused to mail your census form, nor answer the door if one came knocking, you were already in attack mode. The only part of your post I believe is that you became "quite enraged."

The census workers went through six weeks of training, much of it involving how to deal with difficult people such as yourself. Why would she blow her job? Get real, lady.

i had four days of training for NRFU operations (non response follow up). none of it had to do specifically with dealing with difficult people.

I can totally understand someone being upset, caught up in the stress of the moment, etc.


However, later on, using that to make some bizarre point on a message board and not following thru with "part two", etc.

 

[bodecea]

No I.D. ..... deal breaker.

 

[boedicca]

A decent, reasonable person such as yourself doesn't really need training in dealing with difficult people. Your own common sense is a better guide than anything the government will tell you.

I note by your OP that this would have occurred on Saturday. However, from the various items I've been looking at, the census workers didn't even start door-to-door until today, Monday, so it's quite possible that person was NOT a census taker, especially since your description was one of a rather disheveled person?

In any case, she should have been wearing a badge as well as verbally introduced herself. If she was a scammer, then you have a right to be upset. But if she was and your hackles immediately went up BECAUSE she was a census taker, the whole thing was not going to go well period.

2010 Census Takers Knocking on Doors: Be Cooperative But Cautious - BBB News Center

How can I identify a census taker?
First ask to see their ID. All census workers carry official government badges marked with just their name; they may also have a "U.S. Census Bureau" bag. If asked, he or she will provide supervisor contact information and/or the Local Census Office phone number for verification. The Census Bureau has also created a video on how to identify a census taker.

we started friday here.
