A large DIY chain has a store near us
Every couple of years it "Goes out of business" and then opens up again shortly afterwards. I presume its some sort of scam in itself but hey ho no idea really. One year I was temping in my Uni summer holiday and the store was reopening. I was asked by my agency if I fancied going down and joining the team cleaning the store and restocking the shelves ready for the reopening. First thing in the morning there were a good 40-50 of us. I set to work and as temping jobs go it wasn't bad, better than working cleaning a naval support ship at Falmouth Docks.

After lunch about 10 of us were missing. I wasn't that shocked as I had worked many temp jobs where people just decided the money wasn't worth it and had gone home after a couple of hours, but this job really wasn't that bad. I finished up for the day got my paperwork signed and left, the store opened that weekend and I thought little of it until the following week where the local paper had a story about temp workers clearing out a shitload of powertools and various other items of stock. They had pretty much been filling up their cars and bags all morning and then just drove off at lunchtime. Quite the work ethic they had, all that heavy lifting.

Hey, you forgot the bit where you answer the question; What's the naughtiest thing a boss has ever asked you to do? And did you do it? Or perhaps you are the boss and would like to confess.
