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?

Once a doormat, always a doormatNot me, but my girlfriend.
Between the ages of 14 to 18 she did a paper round for £4 a week delivering to 200 houses, worked at a kennels for £2 an hour picking up shit, got paid a measley £3.05 for working at McDonalds(serving shit). Fast forward 6 years and where is she working? In a kennels getting paid £5.05 an hour to pick up shit!! Sigh
