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?

Schoolgirl freshWhen I was in school we all had to sit cross-legged on the floor of the hall in our tiny little green skirts, and invariably they'd run out of space at the front and would get us all to 'shuffle back' at least three times every morning.
Me and my friends swore that it was a surreptitious way of getting us to polish the floors for free with our bums!
