The WORST job you've ever had

I once worked in a lutefisk factory.

I guess that was pretty bad.

I have only had a few "regular" jobs in my life and they all sucked......I'm not cut out for the "regular" job life......but I once worked part time in a tobacco warehouse....brutal...horrible.....

someone, somewhere, right this very minute.....is cleaning the monitor screens, walls and floors of peep show video booths.......for minimum wage....

Yeah, but I get free movies, Bear.

And someone else is hand-sorting recycled trash. YUK!

I'll have to give this thread some thought. I've had a lot of really bad jobs. It's gonna be hard to narrow it down to just one.

Yeah, especially when they run into skunks and stuff, lol!

My worst job I thing was McDonnalds. I lasted 3 days.

Montana... my first job ever was at Jack-In-The-Box, and I worked 1 day. About a week later I got the balls to quit... (over the phone.. tee hee hee ) They're blue polo shirt and cap was sOoOoOoOooOOooo unflattering!!!

I got a job in telemarketing, when I was seventeen. The job description required me to call people from a phone number roster and convince them to buy magazines. Over the course of six hours, I was called more than a few nasty names and hung up on a number of times. I quit at the end of the day.

Honestly, I didn't put it in with the recycling. It'll go straight to the landfill and be given a proper burial.

The worst job I ever had was living in Mexico as a foreigner trying to sell South-African pastries to people in stores walking from store to store. In Mexico if you are "white" then you would not have any need to do these things, so in turn these people treat you like crap and you know that it is something you have to do, this was a self inspired business since I was living without my uptaded governmental paperwork so I could not work for any company. That experience kind of blew!

The worst 'job' I ever had....it involved a lady lawyer with very sharp teeth.

funny, very funny

Thanks, I'm here all week.

When will you be doing an HBO special?

Hmm...well, I love Chris Rock, and invited him to write a routine for me, but he thought that white folks doing edgy black humour just wouldn't be funny. He mentioned something about "Malibu's Most Wanted", but I can't remember who was in that. I'm hoping that Jackie Mason has some time on his hands.

Hmm, well not counting working for a certain respiratory manager who hit on every woman in speaking distance, then making life miserable for those of us who told him, "No.", and not counting a long time gig at a major Motown evening news paper where the dragon lady manager even followed us into the ladies room to make sure we were actually "going", I'd have to say the worst, was a brief stint I did as a waitress/car hop in 1965. I was 14 and worked sometimes till 0400, for fifty cents/hr.
The nephew of the owners worked there and was forever stealing my tips and hitting on me. I kept saying, "No", because he was just not type, thank-you.
One night a car load of drunk men came up to the curb service side and ordered practically everything on the menu. When they decided they didn't have enough money to pay for everything, they invited me to join them. I said, "No, thank-you", and took back the items they couldn't pay for. Then I put the "closed" sign in the window and went inside to sweep up. Then knocked on the window and asked for to get out. "The same way you came in.", I replied. "Just turn around and go back that way.", I pointed to the highway. "OK, honey bun.", the driver said, and he turned his car around the wrong way and drove into the lake. I called out to him to tell him he was going the wrong way, but he just waved.

The cook called the police and a tow truck to help them out. I stayed inside for the rest of my shift and quit the next day. They had the dumb, old boy call me repeatedly to try to get me to come back.

Finally I got fed up and told him, "Look, you're part of the reason I quit. Don't call me anymore!". Finally they gave up. Yep, that was the worst.

Yeah, and that McDonnads get up didn't do me any justice either, lol.

Phew!!! Good thing. I was worried about the poor trash folks for awhile there

I had two worst jobs.

One was cold calling for a recapped truck tire company. I left after a few weeks, and actually did not pick up my last few days' pay.


Job placement in a personnel agency- It took me a couple of days to realize that what the boss (who always was dealing with a sinus problem :wink: ) was more interested in hooking people into ANY job in order to get the commission, rather than to try to place people in jobs that were actually suitable. I knew that I was working with sharks the first time that I got a listing, and another employee was on the phome with her contacts, even before I was off the phone!

Jesusgirl- Is that you? HI!
