Not the worst job but......I worked at Pizza Hut for 4 years and 51 weeks (not 5 years, there's a definite distinction), and halfway through a shift I told them I was going to the toilet, which was around the side of the shop, and I never went back. Just kept on walking. They thought I'd been kidnapped; highly likely, a 22 year old Pizza Hut kitchenhand kidnapped...

everyone should do that at least onceI got on the train to go to work at a crap coffee bar once when I was 19, but instead of getting off at my stop, I went all the way to London and sat on Primrose Hill for the day. And they still gave me my wages PLUS holiday pay :)

When Scotland played Brazil in the world cupI was working in Safeways, and I was the only male person in the store (except the weirdos on the checkouts) since everyone else had phoned in sick. And naturally there were no customers in. So after a little while chatting to the girls on the bakery and deli, I pissed off to the pub to watch the game and have a pint. When I came back nobody had noticed me missing. We still lost the game, though.
