      Hi Mayonaise Bees,

      My favouroite job apart form in science was probably working in a restaurant, as you get to meet many fun people and socialising to keep people happy is part of the job description!

      Hi Mayonnaise Bees!

      I used to work on the check out in Sainsburys for my summer job. I quite enjoyed doing that because I got to talk to lots of people as they did their shopping.

      When I left school I worked in the French alps as a receptionist in a hotel, which was great fun and challenging to understand what everyone was saying and how to answer the phone in French!

      Hey Mayonnaise Bees,

      I’ve had a few jobs since I was 16… They range from absolutely terrible to pretty cool!

      My favourite was working behind the bar at our student union in Reading. Our managers were all ex students, so we had a good laugh together and aside from it being kind of stressful at times, you basically get paid to chat to drunk people, which is quite amusing!

      My worst job was at Woolworths… On my first shift at the age of 16 I had to wear a size 19 shirt and was called Pritesh… I worked there for 9 months then decided that I would rather be poor!

      Steve
