[Marylin]

Had a bad day.The complex I go to for the cinema and where I buy my scratchcards has some nasty people.The Indian guys at the newsagents kiosk where I was getting the scratchcards were being rude and abusive and ridiculing me for being a woman and gambling,I stopped using that kiosk and used the other newsagents at the same complex but there is an indian man in there who is obviously friends with the other Indians and he is making fun of me now for playing the scratchcards and even the security guards and cleaners are joining in and abusing me.So I rang the lottery company that sells the cards and complained and the man who answered told me to stop going to either outlet that their attitude and behaviours are unacceptable and he has registered a complaint against the shop whose address he found but can't do anything about the kiosk because there is no address or name for it.If I get an address I can give them they will investigate.I said to the lotto man loads of people buy scratchcards and they don't abuse them and turn them into a laughing stock why are they picking on me,he said I don't know why they do it but its wrong,it's unacceptable and they should not do it.

It 's embarrassing and humiliating and made me so angry and I have been dealing with these difficult emotions all day.

I'm sorry you had a hard day, Marylin. Sometimes there are mean-spirited people out there and it's no fun having to bump into them by chance. With people like that, I walk away thinking, "Thank God I don't live with him! I feel sorry for whoever that has to live with him..."

I hope you meet good people today.
