Sounds nasty, and you didn't even get to meet George Michael.

Can't say that I've had a worst job really, just boring ones.  Some office 
cleaning work.  Worked with my Father, he made driveway gates, aluminium 
castings, security grilles, ornate lamps etc..  Basically anything you 
could fabricate from steel.  Interesting if dirty work, but he's a hard man 
to work for.  Short temper, runs in the family.

BTW, did you ever devise a way to get him out of his little "joke"?  Like 
bagging it all up and dispensing it on the bathroom floor in his home? :)
