In a summer job in my teens I worked in a factory producing various things including Bryl cream (not sure of the spelling) - I ended up on the line printing the outside of the containers after an earlier placement within the factory packing toothpaste. My mate and myself were put on the end of a toothpaste line - aquafresh, but down in the warehouse rather than on the line up above. Our job merely to stack the packs of 12 toothpaste onto the pallet. Only we weren't fast enough and didn't know how to alert anyone upstairs... they started a sort of log jam with toothpaste sqirting out everywhere.... and ended up with the people on the forklift trucks having to help and sort it out. And they remained our friends for the rest of our time that summer.

At the end of the month all employees always got a goody bag made up of the rejected produce that didn't meet their standards. Everyone had multiple packets of toothpaste that month.... :blush:

I was just looking through my photos on Photobucket. The guy giving the fingers has just tried to drive the pallet through the doors without realising it had an extra layer on the pallet :blush:
Bugger, when it happens, everyone hoots and laughs like drains, i ran and got my camera. He felt bad enough, seeing me with the camera was just a tad too much....bless him :biggrin:


Someone could have warned him - "Duck! A l'orange!" :tongue:
