Cheers
Long time ago , I was working in one of the nastiest pubs in Bexleyheath
all the other casuals had quit as they didn't want to work Xmas & New Year.
But I needed the money so finished up doing all the sessions in the week up to
Christmas (this was the 'Olden days' when pubs still closed in the afternoon)

So at 2.00AM Christmas morning after clearing up the spew , broken glass
and party popper detritus from the parents of the current crop of B/Heath Chavs,
whilst fending off threats from the Cro-magnons who wanted just 'one more drink
ya bastard, it's Christmas'
The landlord presented me with my wages and an envelope, with thanks for all
my hard work. Inside was a Christmas card and £20, very nice I thought, being as my
take home was only about £80 anyway.

When I got home, I found my wage packet was £20 short, the twunt had used
my own money to give me my Chirstmas 'bonus'.
When I called him on it the next day, he told me I should've checked it before I left the pub
and it was right when he did it.

I still smile at going in New Years Eve watching him try and work the bar by himself.
