» Strange things you've been paid to do

I'm glad I'm not a poor student anymore.
You know the lids of shampoo bottles that are really hard to get off because they don't screw on? Well, a few years ago I spent six weeks at L'oreal whacking those lids on with a little hammer, once the bottles had been filled with shampoo.

Also, I worked in a Sony factory for 2 weeks sticking bits on to the back of TVs, I quit when the fumes from the hot glue started giving me nosebleeds.

Misguided revenge
I was on camp when I was about 15 and there was a guy who I didn't particularly like who kept pinching my arse over the course of the week. One day I said to him that if he did it one more time I would punch him.
We were on the minibus later that day and I was sitting in front of this guy and his friend, when we reached our destination I got up to get off the bus and felt the familiar pinching, so I turned around and punched him in the nose. I'm not usually so violent so it hit home with more force than I was expecting and this poor lad had to be taken to hospital with a broken nose gushing blood all over his face. Whilst he was gone several witnesses admitted that it was his 'friend' sitting next to him that had pinched my arse that time.
Oops, I was much nicer to him for the rest of the week. (But maybe this was his friends revenge for something pinchy guy had previously done to him!)
