My previous role was at London Zoo as an Elephant Circumciser, the money wasn't very good but I got some very big tips. Alas, I got fired for getting the sack....

My previous profession was a bus driver but that was cut short when a very large breasted lady boarded and said '£4.20 to Oldham' I gave her a fiver and told her to keep the change. That was the last time I drove a bus.'CUK forum personality of 2011 - Winner - Yes really!!!!

I'm not sure how you carry yourself but when I'm leaving somewhere people are going to miss me, and I them.
I have often been given a bottle of Gin and a bit of a talk-up send off, to respond with "cheers, laters" followed by a run for the door wouldn't be very polite now would it?
I feel in all working environments it is deeply important to realise they're not resources, they're human beings.I'm a smug bastard.Comment

I am adorable and get on very well with everyone I work with. I just don’t think I need to be publically 'thanked'.I'm sorry, but I'll make no apologies for this
