I hate the fake note thing- people seem to think it's often victimless, which somehow makes it worse.
I worked a 12 hour shift with a number of other people at All Bar One on Regent street.
We'd all been working the floor, and one young French girl was in tears- the manager had cashed out her bumbag and she'd taken approx £300 in fake notes.
Worked 12 hours at £5.75, earned £69, paid 30% of that in tax, then have to pay £300 back to the bar.
She ended up having lost 250 quid for working a 12 hour day.
