8. In the Office, Bristol

Female student on work experience in admin department (16):  See, if I could take home all this filing, I could sort it all out when I’ve had me tea, and bring it in all done tomorrow…

Office Manager (40):  I can’t possibly allow you to do that – you’re on work experience and you’re too young to do overtime.  And anyway, why would you want to take work home?

Female student:  It’s me boyfriend, he won’t leave me alone – always pawing at me.  If I tell him I’ve got work to do and I’m too busy, he won’t hassle me with all that kissing and stuff, will he?

(Office Manager is speechless for once in her life)
