This thread reminds me of my first summer job at Cadburys. I had to pack fudge morning, noon and night. I said to my boss 'It's so hard, I'm exhausted.' But he kept cracking the whip until I passed out, I came too on a Turkish Delight and blew my Buttons all over the warehouse floor.
After ripping me a new one, he couldn't wait to give the sack.
