This is a question The Boss

My chief at a large retail chain used to decide on head office redundancies by chanting "One potato, two potato" over the staff list. Tell us about your mad psycho bosses - collect your P45 on the way out.

Fast food
I worked in a popular fast food restaurant when I was 16. Crap money, crap hours, crap environment; but my parents made me get a job. The manager was alright, but his other-half wanted to be a manager too and so was going through the training.

One such night of her running shift we had an inspection the next day. We usually closed at 9 and we were fairly efficient since the nights were quiet and would get out about 9.15. She wanted the place perfect of course for the inspection, so kept us all back till 1am shining every surface and promised us time and 1/2.

I clocked out at 1am, went home, all was well. I'm fairly good with the old computers so logged in the next day to check she'd actually noted us as time and 1/2, to see she'd actually gone in and changed all of our clocking out times to 9pm. Cheers.

She got fired the next day for leaving the door unlocked all night and a bunch of chavs walked in and cooked themselves a meal.

Karma and all that.

I particularly liked that part.

Agreed.
That's class breaking in - wander in through an unlocked door. Cook yourself some supper & wander out again.
