Toadballs- Those are exactly the places you want to go. The women in those places are perfect. They're working for no money in a dead end job. They're working for idiot bosses making a dollar an hour more than they are and their idea of a good meal is McDonalds 99 cent menu. Be nice to them. Invite them out. Then try to nail them. After they do your Western Union of course.
It is true that they will lie about the machine being down, cause I have gone to a Mail Boxes etc Place in a shopping plaza and they said the lines were down, then I go over to the grocery store 500 feet away and boom, done, no problems what so ever. Right after I left the grocery store I went back to the Mail Boxes place and showed them the reciept that my transaction went through and promptly told them, that's not a good way of doing business, especially when it's a big chunk of their business.
Also, is it any of their fawking business why your sending or recieving funds? NOOOOOOOOOOOO! Tell them to process the transaction and mind their fawking business.

I have NEVER been asked that question..."why am I sending", that would be very insulting and not professional.... I see the Western Union stories are all over the country as well
I thought it was just me, you would think all the money they make off us....They`d be a little friendlier...
A striking similatity here
I am now going to compare the Western Union worker
with the Sportsbook phone clerk
I think its a fair comparison
Why does getting a bet in have to be this hard

These stories are uncanny , I can`t believe the similarities..<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>
J man, did you get her control # or was it a quick collect? A lot of those WU girls work in lonely WU stations..just waiting to get taken in the back of your truck or behind the counter. Believe me, these girls think about it all day long and then when someone like a Journeyman walks in then it's deal closing time. Happens all the time......

I hate going through Western Union. When you do it through credit card, it's cool because you never have to literally hand over your money to someone. So wheN I go through Western Union, I use my Debit card all the time. I can't stand the thought of handing over cash to them... it just seems filthy.
As for experiences, I can always tell when the thing is going to be slow. They usually look at me and ask me "Umm, sir you need to use the green form" And I'm like "No, I'm sending to a company through Quick Collect" ... "Oh." And by this point, I already know that I'm dealing with an idiot here. I doubt many people use this Quick Collect thing, so I'm sure that she's confused already.
But I hate driving around for another agent, so I stick to this place. What drives me crazy is that NONE of these western union places have a freakin' PEN available on the outside. They've got like HUNDREDS of pens on their counters, those yellow ones.. but there are never any on the outside.
So if there's a customer already there, I have to wait and then ask for a pen, and get started on filling out the form...and by that time, two other customers will come in after me, and wait in line... so now I'm waiting like 4th in line, pissed like shit. I hate standing there. I just want to get out. I always feel uneasy.
Then finally you get to the counter, and then you get the 'slow typer'. This person is typing with one finger, squinting at the monitor. Then they ask you stupid questions like "Is this your last name? Where does your first name end?"
Once, there were about two or three clerks there. And the girl asks me "So, what is this place? Olympic Sports? I've had a few people come in here with this."
And while I'm thinking of a bullshit answer, her co-worker jumps in with "Oh, it's some gambling place on the internet." And then you see that look in their eyes... as though you're a walking asshole for even considering such a task.
But I went to a grocery store once, and the clerk asks me where it's going, and I'm like "Jamaica". And she's Jamaican as well, so she thinks we have something in common all of a sudden. And she talks about where she lived in Jamaica etc. Luckily she never asked me who I was sending to. But I did receive this question once, and I just went "Oh, it's a sports store. I send them money, and then buy stuff."
She seemed confused about the whole notion of buying things on the internet. So I gather if I had divulged any truth to the matter, she would be even more lost.
And everytime I leave those western union doors, i vow to return in a few days to collect thousands.....if not millions.

Hammy, I actually got the control number first....I`m not that quick...I couldn`t handle a direct rejection...I can`t just walk up to a total stranger and close a deal...I wish I could!
This girl was worthy of a rose! She had a baggage as it turned out,lol...
And 'man that was all she wrote' a little Springsteen reference there,lol..
I may take this into consideration, this new dating angle..

One time, I sent a WU to Paramaribo, Surinam (which according to WU should be spelled Surinama, and no Im not sure if that is correct) to play at Pinnacle.....
Later on that day, Im sitting at a Thai Restaurant here in CR where there's this really cool waiter with a funky accent that I've always wondered where he's from originally....that night I ask him, so, tell me something, I've always wondered, where are you from? He says, oh, Im from Surinam.......
So, to make conversation I say, ohh really cool, what a coincidence, I just sent money there a little while ago.....
He looks at me and says, ohhh really, what, to support some charity or something? (Now, Im not sure if Surinam is like #1 in the world in charities or what but he asked me that, if the money was for charity)....
I felt so bad......I couldnt tell him I was sending it to bet on sports..... I was like, ohh hmmm, no no, something else....
