At least you had water nearby. We had to walk 4,657 miles across the Gobi desert to the nearest puddle...

You were lucky, I had to get up at 6am each morning, clean the lake, go down the mill for 14 hours a day, for 6 pence a week, and when I got home, my dad would thrash me to sleep with his belt. 😞

So you did have a job at one point.

Why did you give it up?

Child labour laws. 🙁

We dreamed of havin' a puddle.

People who don't like minimum wage could always start out at the Top.

I was evicted from my hole in the ground, I had to go live in a lake. 🙁

You were lucky to have a lake! There were a hundred and fifty of us living in t' shoebox in t' middle o' road.

For clarity, I haven't had the job, working down the mine was part of the monty python sketch. 😵
