sounds like over time at the supermarket dunnit

when you're 17

ringing you up on your day off, to the point where they're your alarm clock

Then you find out after tax you're getting about ?2 an hour at 17 cos you're on the lower rate, and you've been f**king yourself up for nowt

Then you stop doing it, then they get pissed off with you, then they find the next sucker
