Being told off as an adultWhen was the last time you were properly told off? You know: treated as an errant child rather than the sophisticated adult you are.
The sort of thing that dredges up an involuntary teenage mumble of "Sorry, Miss" whilst you stare at the ground.
Go on, tell us what childish thing you were up to when you got caught.
Oh, and can we have more than one-line answers this time? Cheers!

Dole ScumI usually keep my head down and stay away from the spotlight as much as possible so rarely find myself in any bother.
It would be about two years ago during a lengthy spell of unemployment.
I was hauled in to see the supervisor and questioned on my job-seeking, or lack of same.
For half an hour I was basically called a fool, an eejit and a lazy gobshite for not being able to find work despite providing twice as much proof as I was asked for. She lectured me on my responsibilities and the like and kept dropping in tired cliches such as "No such thing as a free lunch", "When are you going to wake up and smell the coffee?" etc. All delivered in a "I've had it up to *here* with your antics young man" tone of voice.
Not wanting to lose the only source of income I had, I had to sit there and take it going "Yes ma'am" and "No ma'am" at appropriate intervals.
I was bursting to let fly at her but couldn't. Especially as, those lazy cunts at the job centre had basically outsourced (unofficially) all their work to cunting agencies (those cunts that they are). So there she was, her and her colleagues doing sweet fuck all every day but sit on nice civil service 'job for life' arses and lecture me on all the hard work they'd been doing on my behalf while I just spent my days watching tv.
