none of my jobs have ever really been *that* bad... but food places in general just make me never want to get into that business again. if you knew that your potatoes went through the dishwasher before being made into mashed potatoes... you'd never eat there again lol. i've worked in a restaraunt, for a catering company, party city (twice, a couple years ago, and the job i currently hold) and the 411 services for cell phones, a place called Metro One. I guess i'm sort of lucky. ;D

The one I currently have. Stupid Air Force, stupid Tech Control. ZZZzzzz. But the pays good. Just got 980 bucks for 2 weeks of sitting on my ***. But I worked as 411 for Ameritech. That sucked. I got cussed out daily and when the office got an outbreak of some nasty bugs they still wanted us to show up at work. Only paid 6.50/hr, but I was on a union & couldn't be fired.
Burger King was the bomb job. I got 7.25/hr to goof off and be rude to people.

All of my jobs are **** and I hate them!!!
Right now I have to go through 3 boxes of former employee records to get invitations out for company's 25 anniversary.
Thanks god I had interview yesterday, hopefully I'll be outta this shithole soon
I've been promised a raise since January 25. If I get $1000 for each time I hear about my raise I would be a millionaire right now.
Alex.

I can't say I HATED the job...but the WORST job I ever had was working for the water company, WHICH btw also operated all the SEWAGE TREATMENT PLANTS!!! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!! what a nasty place!!!

everything ends up that that goes in the sewer system....it gets strained and seperated...all the solid stuff was pumped into HUGE tanks and chemically treated and mashed and eaten up by little microbes....it turned into this green sludge....when the tank was full it was poured out into these big drying vats about 2 1/2 feet deep...and all the water was allowed to evaporate out of it...at this point it didn't smell or anything...but you KNEW what it was....lol after it dried all out it was anywhere from an inch thick to 6 inches thick...and it all got scooped up with a tractor and spread on the grounds as FERTILIZER!!! man the grass grew fast at those plants!! lol

of course when tamato's were in season....there were tomato plants growing out of them EVERYWHERE....and if you were the poor soul on the tractor...you BETTER keep an eye on the rest of us!! lol

Me and two of my highschool friends all worked there at the same time...we MADE it fun....but over all...the job was the worst I ever had.

How about cleaning the lav's (toilets) on airplanes..

I used to work for Hudson General in Toronto. Basically it was my job to empty the front and rear lav tanks when an aiplane came in.

I drove this shitty (pun intended) ford truck whith a huge tank on it, drive under the plane and hook up the dump hose. Let me tell you, we litteraly hung off of these hoses to make sure they were connected otherwise it would fall off halfway through the dump and there was no way to stop the flow unless you put your hand up into the valve and closed it.

Everyday I'd come home and just reek of airplane toilet. One day my partner didn't check the hose and was covered in **** and blue from head to toe. ("Blue" is the liquid the put in the tanks, kind of like 2000 flushes) Buddy went back to the office, changed and never returned.........ever.


still makes me chuckle
