I think this is funny!  Pay for a ticket and have an obligation to work a daily 3 hour shift!  Hehe!

Cute idea for the stall-holder - save on wages and get money selling the ticket!  


Mind, I'd wonder how the trader is planning on stopping the person who buys the ticket doing a runner.

im sure some people without a ticket will find the offer attractive, includes a 4 birth tent already pitched for you as well.

[guyfawkes]

Haha cheeky get has to work 3 hours a day at the stall, as soon as i had the ticket you'd never see me again.

Why? It's not as if they're touting. I don't have a problem with this sale to be honest.

Likewise, the stall holders pay a fortune for a pitch to trade, and free tickets are one of their perks. If they don't need staff 8 hours a day,  all they are doing is recouping some of their pitch money.

There's not a hope in hell I'd have someone working for me on the stall that I didn't know!
Not only could you not blame the person for f**king off as soon as they're in coz they'd already paid you the ticket price, but they could rob you blind and there's really not a lot you could do about it.

I guess if they f**k off he's recuperated the cost of his ticket, and i'm sure he'd get by just fine missing just one staff member, even if it means a little extra work on his part.

Yeah, I don't really understand why they want the person to work too - surely the ticket price should be enough - maybe they're just plain greedy.

[mouth]

maybe the offer of work is merely so that the ticket isnt being sold as such.

Yeah, possibly. I reckon they'd still kick you off if they sussed you though

[Sam.]

How would they suss you? Say you work the 3am-6am shift?

the stall holder must know as soon as the person is on site they'll just piss off and enjoy the festi. I'd guess they have put the 3 hours work as maybe to obtain the ticket they have to declare x amount of staff will be onsite with the stall.

If I was a stall holder I dont think I'd be trying to flog a ticket tho. If you were caught out you'd certainly lose your ptich.

I want to ask the seller a question, is it me or is the option not there?
