Once had a work experience kid in one of the kitchens I used to run, due to health and safety he wasn't allowed to do much apart from dishes as he was not trained and not covered by insurance around some of the equipment, but bless him he was so keen. In fact he was keen to the point that he pissed me off chronically especially when he bugged me for something to do other than dishes during service, one night when I was busy and he was bugging me I told him that I needed a "long weight" from my pal who ran the kitchen of a restaurant down the road. 3 hours later the work experience boy came back and told me "I think he forgot about me. When I told him what we needed he told me to stand in the corner and he would sort it out when he could." The guy couldn't understand why the other chefs kept looking at him and giggling. Looking back I feel a bit bad about it, at the time I pissed myself.
