* AlwaysSomeoneBetter: Neil ends up doing very well at the newspaper job that Will was supposed to do during their week of work experience, to the point they want to keep him on, whereas Will ends up alienating everyone at the garage job Neil was supposed to go to by condescendingly saying he's too clever for a menial job. PlayedWith in that Neil is suggested to be liked at the newspaper job precisely ''because'' he's too stupid to bother asking questions to his supervisor (who implies that all of their previous work experience hires were toadying Will types) and generally keeps out of the rest of the staff's way, rather than for any actual skills he possesses.

* JerkassHasAPoint: While Mr. Gilbert takes delight in Will's bullying during his work experience, he still believes that Will must've said something for him to get bullied that badly. In fact, part of the reason for Will's hazing is his own insensitive comments.

It's work experience week, and while Jay has sorted something for himself and Simon at his dad's plant hire, a mix-up leaves Neil at a newspaper and Will at a garage. Mr Gilbert is either unable or unwilling to change things.
!!This episode contains examples of:
* DiggingYourselfDeeper: If Will had just kept his mouth shut and not gone on and on about how he was too "clever" to work at a garage, he probably would've survived the two weeks without being hazed.
* DisproportionateRetribution: Danny physically assaults Simon at the disco for accidentally bumping into him the day before.
* HairTriggerTemper: Danny will pick a fight with anyone for no reason at all. Even after giving Simon the beating of a lifetime doesn't satisfy him, as he rounds up a posse to finish him off along with the other lads.
* OfCourseInNotAVirgin: Will claims to have had sex with Charlotte lots of times during the work experience episode, a lie that's easily found out.
* SnipeHunt: Will nearly embarks on one of these whilst on work experience at a car garage. However, the know-it-all way he reacts to seeing through the prank results in a much worse hazing by the mechanics, with Will being abducted, locked into a car boot, stripped and thrown into a freezing lake.
-->'''Jimmy''': Didn't think of that one did you, Mastermind?
