This is a question Work Experience

We'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?

This is a QotW answer Mundaneish
I spent the summer after my A-Levels shadowing a well known QC, before I went on to do my LLB. Interestingly(ish), he was defending "Warrior" from hit TV show Gladiators in a perjury trial at the time. Slightly star struck meeting this minor celebrity.

10 years later, I now work in an office 50 yards from the gymn he owns and see him about 12 times a day - so the shine has subsequently worn off. I say grown up - I had worked in the office of a solicitor friend of my dad's earlier that year, but they were anything but grown up.

This wasn' my first experience of work as such, as I was 18 and had a few menial jobs. But my first experience of "grown up" work.
