I've quite enjoyed the last few threads regarding the many little things that bug us and amuse us but lets get to the really interesting stuff.

Aside from the well know English Time screwing of EFL teacher does anyone have or heard any really awful stories.

Possibly another more productive way of puting it would be:
What to watch out for.......

I was going to put this on the Saudi forum first but I'm in Turkey so.....

I once saw a naked (except for his tennis shoes) midget leaving a Dead show in Eugene. He didn't seem to care that he was naked, and eventually disappeared into the shrubbery. My friend and I got into an argument over whether he was a midget or a dwarf, and nearby hippies were arguing over whether or not he was actually there.

Irrelevant. Embarassed He was definitely there. I'm just not sure if he was a midget or a dwarf.
