I excepted a job in an apple and pear packing factory at the end of the summer a couple of years ago. I was offered the job on the condition i arrived at the other side of Denmark the next day at 7:30 in the morning. I had never done this kind of work before and didn't like working inside with machines. I also found the realionship between the staff and workers a little strange.

To make things worse when I finally got paid I was taxed 60%. What is the most important lesson you have learnt throughout your career? All employers appreciate honesty punctuality and hard work.
