1st C'mon Rich! My Saturday job while at school was in a cake shop and I spent most of my time picking dead flies out of the window display during the summer. Posted by Mr_Miyagi
Greetings wise Sensei Master (!)
Are you sure you didn't spend your summers painting fences for some old fella? Wax on, wax off-stylee?
Thanks for your confident prediction that I will win tonight- it's actually a very clever guess because it will probably give you numbers 1 all the way to 250th!
Oh, and nice Saturday job. Did you put the dead flies straight into the mince pies? That's what I was told they were made out of, when I was little, and I've never been able to stomach them ever since...
A very respectable 37th place awaits you. My Saturday job involved serving in a Fishmongers. Despite showering vigorously the "Captain Birds Eye Effect" did not vanish until the Tuesday at least. Had to knock it on the head when I began to smell like a cod when sweating at footy training ;0(

Yes, I hear you never quite manage to shift the smell of fish once you've been a fishmonger.
I assume Tikay must have been one at some stage back in the 40s, as he often whiffs of stale halibut.
Then again, that might just be an old person smell he's packing there...
171st. Worked in the local Wimpy restaurant. Posted by Mohican
I did a summer in McDonalds. Never quite managed to work my way up to serving customers at the counter- I was kept on trash duty and flipping burgers.
I left after 3 months with no stars on my badge. I don't know whether to laugh or cry about that.
Wimpys? Weird chain. One always assumes they died out in the 80s, but every now and then you see a random one knockng about in a forgotten high street.

After 2 decades, regular jet-washings and a skin graft, the smell of cod has now been neutralised.

I think you will reach the pokertastic heights of 101.
I use to be a sky poker analyst on a Saturday, but I just could not live with the shame, so resigned and went to work in Woolworths as a store room boy and floor assistant!! Hours on end talking nonsence to people, dealing with confused old people and chatting up the female staff...............no difference really !!
Cleaning up maggots ( 3 gallons of em at a time) for the customers and other such wriggly bait things.. (poooooooooooooooo Hence why I never had a girlfriend till I left school and that shop. )

Oi!
They were THE original burger chain in the UK, long before those upstarts from MacDonalds & Burger King arrived.
It was a big do to visit a Wimpy when I was a teenager, & trying to impress a girl. I had my first shake in a Wimpy, too.
There was a Wimpy in Richmond, & we went & saw the Rolling Stones at Richmond Jazz Club - before they were famous - & then bumped into them in the Wimpy later.

good luck
