3 Hamsters and 2 goldfish.

We keep them in large glass tanks as follows:

- Large tank: 2 dwarf hamsters, sisters (one is diabetic and needs herbal medicine daily)
- Smaller tank: one dwarf hamster, left from the previous pair we had. Getting old and slow, I check for her body each morning so the girlfriend doesn't find it first and I'm always relieved when she's out rummaging for food
- Other small tank: 2 goldfish, new acquisitions.

Our lease says no pets but thankfully the landlord hasn't set foot in the place since we moved in.

What's the worst job you've ever had and why?

Jamaican Me Crazy · 07-08-2014 12:23PM

All my jobs have been similar (i.e. finance positions in a particular industry). I took what I thought would be my ideal job (right position, location etc) and the other staff in the department were just wagons. They reminded me constantly that I was only on a temp contract, don't even think it would get extended and in addition to that they all hated each other! I left there sharpish.

Do you prefer to have a male or female boss?

Male! Due to recent (ongoing) experience anyway.

If you were financially secure enough that you didn't have to work, would you? Why?

The Scotsmans Lounge, Cockburn St. in Edinburgh. Two lads called 'The Roods' were/are there every Friday night and they were brilliant.

Ooh.. is it cheating to say it really depends on the type of bisuit or cake? Although if I really had to pick I'd probably go for a nice bit of cake. :pac:
