Well as many of you know (or don’t) I quit my work experience because there was nothing there for me to do, just to fold 500 letters and put them into envelopes...
Any way two of my mates quite too on Monday and came in to school, the head teacher said to the first:
"Charlene why are you back"
"Because I didn’t enjoy carrying shoes around all day, I found it boring and I was not learning anything"
"Oh, ok well fair enough ill try and find you something else to do"
Well that was ok, that made me less worried about seeing him.
Then my other mate goes to him and he says
"And you quit work experience because"
"Well there was nothing there for me to do atall, all the people sweared and it was too busy and they just thought it would be best for me to come back to school..."
"Ok, well that is understandable"
Now I was not fearing him atall I thought I would just go in there and get things sorted, but nooo, he had to be different to me...
"Robin, what the hell do you think you are doing quitting work experience?"
"Well folding 500 letters in half and putting them into an envelope is not very educational, I was not enjoying it and there was no room in the office, once I even had to just sit there and watch this lady work on her computer for 2-3 hours"
" I DONT CARE IF YOU DONT LIKE IT, YOU STICK AT IT, DONT YOU THINK I HATE MY JOB SOMETIMES"
"Um yes all the time to be honest"
"WELL WITH PEOPLE LIKE YOU I DO, WHEN YOU ARE OLDER AND YOU CAN’T GET A JOB IM GOING TO COME UP TO YOU AND LAUGH, LAUGH AND POINT"
Hell was that really necessary, I mean why he didn’t do it to the other to people, so the girl a fancy (Charlene Bolton) just started saying what a fool he is, made me feel better...
I just don’t get why he done that to me, I have never really been in any trouble, I guess he is just a sad old man...

telling you he will come and point and laugh is a bit harsh.
as for your friend saying "people were swearing and busy". WHAT THE HELL? so when he leaves school and gets a job, and people are *gasp* swearing, will he leave his job?
also, no offence, but we ALL have to do jobs we don't like some times, which includes folding 500 envelopes or whatever. You wanted experience of work? I'd say its a pretty accurate simulation.
I've had some pretty horrible tasks to complete at work recently. If you start whinging about how you don't like it, pretty quickly your workmates will see you as a work-shy fop. It's pretty much a case of put up or shut up, and you can't quit a job just because you had a bad day, or didn't 'learn anything'.
If you really want a job where you have to do sod all all day, and everyone is nice to you, then you are going to have to either
A) work extremely hard at education
B) work your way up from the bottom
C) fall into a good job*
* = as likely as winning the lottery
get used to hard work chief, cos it doesn't get any easier. If the worst thing thats happened to you is getting shouted at by your headmaster, consider yourself lucky.

Teachers are funny. It was funny to watch them when they got all agitated over nothing.
That's teachers for you.
That's teachers for you.
hahahaha
I doubt that happened.
