Child LabourThere is a special part of Hell I'd like to reserve for those arses that order every single Sunday paper. Do you know how heavy that makes the bundle of papers some poor kid (ie me) has to lug around? Funny how your papers always seemed to get mangled in your letterbox...
I loved my paper round, but, looking back, I was getting paid peanuts to ruin my back and cycle around in the cold and dark. How were you exploited as a child?

Fucking FarmersOne summer when my brother and I were 12 and 14 respectively our mum got us a couple of days work at the local farm.
We were promised £20 quid each and all we had to do was wonder round his fields pulling up a certain type of weed that his cows/sheep/ couldn't eat.
12 hours later, bleeding hands, seized back, heatstroke, and de-hydration(for twas mid summer) the tight cunt gave us £10.
to share.
Ok, £10 wasnt bad, but to share? and to come back tomorrow and work for nowt as he said that was all he was gonna pay us?
Fuck that.
Cheers mum!
