# worst job i ever had was working for a small medical pr agency in west london...
aside from that, probably packing shoe polish. 10 of us would sit by a conveyer belt for 2 hours at a time, putting 12 tins of kiwi at a time into boxes. they's play the radio - virgin unfortunately - just a little bit too quietly to be heard over the machinery. for £3 an hour.

or possibly cleaning pub toilets.

# reminds me of a friend of mine
He was about 35 and I hadn't seen him all summer. I said, "what have you been up to Kev?"

"Oh I've been working in a factory," replied Kev, "Sellotaping boxes."

"Sounds sucky", I commiserated.

"The worst bit was when I noticed the floor was a bit mucky," Kev said quietly, "I got out the vacuum and had a go at it. My 19 year old boss stopped me and shouted, 'You don't have the authority to use the vacuum. Get back to the sellotape.'"

# excellent
i also worked in a factory that made and packaged neutralia (sp?) and john frieda hair and beauty products. £3.50 an hour, 8 hours a day packing £20 bottles of muck for rich women.

"Frizz-Ease: it costs a bomb, but makes your hair look nice*"

*knocked up in bradford by a bloke called mick. he was sacked by BNFL
