So am I, I think. I started boiling an egg earlier, went off to do some sight singing practice and forgot all about the egg. Next thing I know there's a weird burning smell in the kitchen, and the sound of a mini explosion. I went in to investigate and there's bits of hard boiled burnt egg all over the kitchen.
Bang goes my reputation for being a good chef. (Literally!) Can't even boil an egg.....

PS. Then later on I was wondering why I felt so hungry. Completely passed me by that I'd hadn't actually eaten the egg I'd been boiling. Sometimes it's hard being blonde!

You start with a wage of £0 per hour, but each day you work here, the pay multiplies! e.g. 1st day: 1 x £0, 2nd day: 2 x £0, 3rd day: 3 x £0!Think about it, you'll be rich in no time!
My wages as church organist are like that... double every year too

Hey Amber, dont worry, with all that money to spend, you'll have to eat... I don't know, 10 000 tonnes of albino caviar a day to get rid of 1% of your pay! There's is absolutely no chance of poverty for MY staff! You'll earn faster than you can spend as they say! My, how generous am I!
