working for a company called Snaxwagon - driving around industrial
estates selling hot & cold food. I hated it, put on loads of weight,
then got sacked. I carried out a childish vendetta against the
managers for ages afterwards - signing them up for all kinds of junk
mail and stuff, haha

leaving the job I had in order to work for Snaxwagon

this girl once asked me if I "was going to be much longer?". It
totally ruined the moment. I felt like asking if she had something
better she'd rather be doing!

>9. EMBARRASSING INCIDENT
my first job after leaving school was on the amusement park at Woburn
Abbey. On sundays, I used to drive the narrow gauge train. One day I
was in the train drivers shed between train rides, sat on a small
shelf leaning against the side wall of the shed. This side wall
contained a flap, which could be opened up so the shed could be used
as a pay kiosk. This flap suddenly decided to come open, and I fell
backwards and ended up hanging upside down by my knees, looking at
about 300 laughing people. After I had clumsily extracted myself from
this position, I then had to take the train out, with all the punters
still pointing and laughing.....bastards!
