Cheating cheaty cheats
I'm rubbish at cheating. I was asked to help run a stall at a local fair. We sold squares on a treasure map for 10p a go, with the one closest to the "hidden treasure" winning stuff.
I told my sister where it was. I'd not really thought through how obvious this would be. I've kind of avoided cheating since, what have you cheated at? Confess all, it'll make you feel better.

...but when this callcentre I work in first opened, the management could not analyse the stats for the teams correctly (actually, they couldn't at all). So some teams would start they're shift at say 2pm, and deliberately sit about 100 yards apart so that it was difficult to see if everyone was in. Some clever bastards would come in, sign in for 1/2 an hour then go on a fag break. For 6 hours. Then come back and work the last hour off, completely un-noticed by anyone. Well at least for 6 months, until someone noticed and fired their asses lol.
Another guy who used to be on my team was a legend. He'd put someone on hold as soon as the call would come in, then sit there playing java games on the internet until he got bored with it, or the customer would hang up. What he said was that the customer would only hear a change of hold music, then would either get bored and hang up or stay there for as long as half an hour. He done this for months until again he got caught and fired. He was more upset by the fact that he almost beat his high-score on java kickups, rather than being made unemployed :) Straight afterwards, he sent our team a leaving e-mail from his house, stating that how some people get fired and break down crying, for him it was the 1st time the chips in KFC tasted nice :D
