Work ExperienceWe've got a work experience kid in for a couple of weeks and he'll do anything you tell him to... He's was in the server room most of yesterday monitoring the network activity lights - he almost missed his lunch till we took pity on him.
We are bastards.
How bad was your first experience of work?

What we did to themWe horrible military types used to play various tricks on the work experience kids - Like send them to tool stores for a 'Long Weight'. Some of them used to wait quite a long time before they cottoned on.
Or we'd send them to the medical centre to collect some 'Fallopian Tubing'.
Or give them an empty bag sealed with tape, and tell them it was contaminated oxygen which needed testing.
Or send them to get a new bubble for a spirit level.
Or send them to have their I.D.Ten-T photo taken whilst wearing a respirator - shortly after that we would present them with a picture of them wearing a respirator holding a board displaying the legend 'ID10T'
The best one though involved blindfolding someone, staking them to the grass and driving a Landrover very close to their head, leaving the engine running. Someone would then roll the spare wheel of the Landrover over the victims chest while the Landrover was driven slowly away making the naive youg fool think they were being run over. Hehe.
