I would walk 500 miles (well not quite)

We went on a “team building”  exercise in Derbyshire one weekend. 10 of us were camping in the middle of nowhere and were meant to be doing big walks and stuff like that. The boss also came along to show he was “down with troops” – but he did have a bigger tent and demanded to have the wash room to himself. On the second day of three, the boss ran out of cigarettes. He then told me I had to walk to the shops to buy some more. The shops were about 15 miles away and it was raining – and I didn’t have a car because we’d come in a mini-bus that had cleared off.  He threatened to sack me if I didn’t. At the time I actually liked the job, so I walked the 15 miles… only to get there and the shop was closed (half-day).  So i walked all the way back (another 15 miles in the pouring rain) and the boss was happily smoking away. Turned out it was all a big joke! Ha Ha. He was actually sacked by senior management a month later… probably because I told them what happened.
