So this footage[^] purports to show a shopkeeper being hypnotised and then robbed. Is this possible? I always thought of hypnotism to be a stage show pulled of with stooges. Has anyone here been hypnotised?

There are techniques like rapid induction which anyone can learn and do not take too much skill.
Derren Brown is particularly good at this and he does not use stooges.

I was going to mention Derren Brown. I saw a TV show of his once where he went into shops and tried to pay with sheets of plain paper, or stopped people in the street and asked for their wallets and so on.
I have seen people I know hypnotised on stage before.
Some men are born mediocre, some men achieve mediocrity, and some men have mediocrity thrust upon them.

I was a little surprised by the side-effects last time you hypnotised me, I was expecting severe head-aches, nausea etc but all I got was sore bum and an empty wallet. strange.

No pain, no gain.

Were you being hypnotised? or just drunk?

Under the right circumstances I'd even accept a salary reduction.

Better working environment, better quality of life, walking distance commute, shorter working hours...any and all of these can easily be worth a lot more than money.

Under the condition that you have a reasonable salary to begin with, of course...

Yeah, but it could have been better. Instead of having to drag himself all the way to the living room, he could have worked from the bedroom (if it hadn't been for coffee cravings, that is!). Unfortunately, his boss is a mean bugger that won't allow that...

Oh, yes!
Which means I have a good working environment, good quality of life, very short walking distance commute, short working hours...
Well, not the last one.
And I won't give me a pay rise either...

You have to go to the boss instead of the manager, but she won't give you a rise either.
