Left work at 6:45 pm today. I work at a hospital, there is a pond and geese live there, breed there.
The hospital is built in what was once a cow pasture and the lake and geese have been there for God only knows how long.
The hospital hires someone to scare the geese off several times a year. Today was such a day.
There was the truck (Safe and Humane Goose Chasers)
the border collie was running around the lake and there was a model boat about two feet long on the pond being controlled to chase the geese.
The only geese on the pond at this point was a dad, mom and their 5 little babies about the size of my hand.
I was watching for a while and saw the boat chase the mom and babies, dad was trying to divert the dog away from mom and babies. I was looking for who ever was controlling the boat, I was getting madder and madder.
Poor mom and dad were frantic, dog was running and chasing dad and boat was chasing mom.
Finally I hear a cherry "hello". There stands the numbnut with his control giving me a big smile.
I said " what are you doing?"
I was hired by the hospital to chase the geese away.
You can't chase the mom and her babies, that is wrong.
I am not chasing them.
Yes you are, I have been watching and I saw you. The dad is protecting his family, the babies can't fly away.
Oh I like didn't know that. :rolleyes::rolleyes:
Well I can see by looking at you that you are not too bright.
You are welcome to make a report to the hospital and it looks like you will.
Yes I will, you cannot chase a defenseless mother with her babies.
I didn't do that.
Yes you DID, I saw you.
Are you telling me how to do my job?
No but I know what is right and wrong and you are wrong, as I said you are not too bright.
I then walked off in total disgust. I wanted to hit him, but he was big, he had the dog and he was hired by the hospital. I will file a written report against him.
He watched me walk to my car which was about 10 feet away, I turned around and watched him take his boat out of the water.
What a piece of work. I am still so upset. Those poor geese, it was so heartbreaking.
Dad of course would not abandon wife and babies and was risking his own life for them and still his wife and chidren were being attacked. :mad::mad:
