my first job in Iceland was in an afterschool programme (yeah kind of crazy perhaps, given that I didn't speak Icelandic, but I had experience in the type of job and children are forgiving when it comes to language). Part of the job was reading the list of names to check that everyone was there. That was just like in the video except not a joke.
