What do you do for money? Accountant

You go for a job interview. £10'000 a year before tax, three weeks holiday, five days a week 9 - 5. You get offered the job, immediate start, but before you went into the room, a person outside said you'd look great in a 'glamour' magazine, and you're worth around £20'000 for one month's worth of work. Which offer do you accept? The second one! No-brainer!

You're fired! Do you get a factory job packing eggs into cartons, 10 hours a day, £5 an hour, or a job at McDonalds, where your supervisor is five years your junior? The first one.


A stupid thing that you have done: Taken people close to me for granted and regretted it later

How did you last 'put your foot in it' by saying the wrong thing at the wrong time? Can't remember a recent one, but my classic example is sending a Valentine card anonymously, allowing myself to be convinced that the recipient knew it was from me and felt the same way, and thus publicly announcing it to her and indeed everyone. Bet you can't guess the ending to that story (the whole tale even got published in the student literary journal...)
