I happen to be working on a day when the shop is constantly full. People keep coming in for fireworks tickets. I've done 9am to 1pm and am knackered now and to make matters worse I have to go back at 4 and today work till 9 (I usually work till 8). So I'm a bit annoyed because I can't go to see any fireworks tonight and I am going to be very knackered at the end of the day.

Anyone got any good blackmail techniques for use with bosses? I'm planning to try and win the lottery tonight so I can give up my job but I doubt this plan is going to work. Looks easy on paper doubt so in real life :/

Anyone doing anything exciting for fireworks night?
