Ah pogs-that takes me back a while-pogs were when i was in primary School a craze where you would get a pile of cardboard disks and topple the pile with a plastic disc and whoever caused the most cardboard disks to topple/flip over would win. Like everthing else it seemed so cool at the time...

Selling the Big Issue, I still do it and its crap. Another wierd job I had was back in the mid 1980s when I was on a government scheme which was making paper bricks out of old newspapers which were then distributed to people by van to use as fuel along with coal for their fires.

When I was 18 I spent the summer working as a Sandwichboard Man, advertising a local fast food place. Within a fortnight three other places had copied the idea, so there were four of us walking the streets of Paignton all summer, we were like a little gang - a very strange looking one

I collected pogs in elementary school! I had all of these girly ones with rainbows, teddy bears and kittys on them. I also had a set of the American presidents and states (my mom thought they'd be educational)... I was so cool Rolling Eyes

I quess my two months in Sydney was pretty wierd, if just for the circumstances. My boss here told me I would be designing part of the software system but when I arrived the whole project was nearing completion and I probably ended up doing two or 3 weeks worth of actual work max! Thanks for that Bob, nice all-expences-payed holiday to the other side of the planet

Awww! See at my school, you weren't cool unless you collected them. No one ever really played with them, just tried to collect as many as you could. I even had a binder to put them in... ha ha!

No, it wasn't quite that bad. Very Happy

But it was black & gold. And normally I avoid gold & black things. (Local 'soccer' rivalry)

Process Server. Not really weird, but I got to meet some interesting people, mainly by surprise.
