Abusing freebiesA friend of mine recently attended a 'Champaign Lunch', where he was compelled drink as much fizzy stuff as he could between the first and last courses. In an ideal world we'd ask restaurant staff to tell us stories about fatties stuffing themselves at All You Can Eat places, but we recognise that our members don't all work in the catering trade, so for the rest of you - tell us something about abusing freebies. BTW: Bee puns = you fail.

Bindun?In the IT world we have trade shows. Lots and lots of trade shows and the majority are ball-numbingly boring so I came up with a wee scam to make sure that I only attend if it's worth it.
I've mentioned before but, wherever I work I normally find myslef an appretince geek, a protege. Someone amongst my cow-orkers who shows that little extra spark that means that, one day, he'll be a proper BOFH. My PFY (Pimply Faced Youth).
Now with trade shows, I make sure that my PFY is scheduled to attend the first day and I'm rostered for day two. PFY has one instruction. Find the stalls with the best fruit, the best freebies, write down the company and stall and email it to me.
Not terribly funny but well worth copying.
Cheers
