I was a petrol pumps attendant on the weekends. I got paid a pittance but didn't get called into action that much (hardly any traffic, it was in a very quiet village), we used to sell the sunday papers, so most sundays I'd sit listening to the radiio reading through the sports sections...
still my favourite job ;)
I was a sand-based, beverage-container logistics technician in a tavern in Cork. Hated it.
Cushiest number I ever had was a security job for eastern Electrical. Just had to be there, there was a video player there and I brought my playstation. Crap money, but easily earned!

Worked at a garage, changing oil filters, spark plugs, repairing punctures etc.
I liked the fact that I was doing a good honest hard days work but tips were unheard of. I did a host of jobs when I was young.
From collecting glasses in a bar for a few pence to running youth discos for a small packet.

Worked in a golf shop a few evenings a week and on the weekends, had to listen to some tight feckers asking for discount all the time (BMWs, and Mercedes cars parked outside).

Powercity working in the stores, fcuk was it hard work ! lugging round fridges, dishwashers etc all day. and my boss (who is my uncle) was a ******* ! lol
best number i had was running a Garden Centre, very handy number ! loved it ! and the pay was pretty good as well !
Lounge staff, then barman...
Also did a few nights security like Gary above. There was two blokes per night and we got there at 11, played football games on the playstation until about 4, then fell asleep and got woken about 7 by builders before heading home.

Child labour in Cork. It really is sad
better than the dole in dublin, or drug dealing.
or pimping your sister (not that you'd get much)

Are you not taking the bait too by assuming that he was serious?
The Dubs haven't the mental ability for mind games Peader leave em off

Of course he wasn’t serious but even jokingly, jokes about “your sister” are poor, 80s style playground stuff…
