I once had a temp job working for the NUS in Belfast
All I had to do was drive to various Higher Education institutions across N.Ireland, set up a table and hand out NUS student discount cards. Most students were eagerly awaiting them so I had to do very little but simply hand them out. You would however get some suspicious students away in the sticks near Ballymoney:

Me: "Free student discount card?"

Them: "No thanks"

Me: "you sure? 10% off HMV, cheap train tickets etc"

Them: "oh nonono, I'm not falling for that, I don't need a credit card"

Me: *sigh*

And they would simply walk off...or ask what HMV was. It was a great job, I got to travel to all the freshers fairs at colleges and Uni's, stock up on free condoms, lube, latex gloves (so you could wank your partner off safely without catching an STD according to the NUS handbook), pizza, books, pens etc it was great.

What did I get paid for this you ask? £100 a day + expenses. The best bit was the local record shop near me in Belfast at the time used to print identical receipts as the petrol station next door, no name or product info. So I managed to get a few albums and DVD's on expenses under the claim of:

"I needed extra petrol, had to take the B roads to Enniskillen",
