What's the worst job you've ever had ??
Most mind-numbing was putting letters in envelopes....that's all I did.....all day.....for three months.
The repetition.....the boredom......THE PAPERCUTS :cry:
The one I hated most.....customer services - in a department of NO blokes and 14 women.
*Cue every male saying - sounds great to me !*
Think about it in real terms tho.....these weren't 14 baywatch babes....these were 14 REAL women.....with REAL moodswings.
14 different moods at any given time - all changing from second to second.
HELLISH.

Hmm, 14 overweight bints asking "Does this skirt make me look fat?" No, the excess stones you have accumulated through eating shite and not exercising at ALL makes you look fat. Jesus H Christ, its as simple as that, eat equal to, or less calories than you burn and you will NOT put on weight, it simple arithmetic that a fucking child could do it. And they wonder why we withheld the vote for so long!!!!
Hmm, my worst job, it's a toughy. I think I've been quite lucky so far in that I haven't disiked any job I've taken. My nightmare scenario would be a bit like Amos', a well repetitive boring job that has no meaning to its existence and allows your brain to waste away, now thats a nightmare. As soon as I felt was regressing, time to give the boss the finger and get that P45 and move on. In no way do I EVER want to be caught in the trap that I work to live, I'd rather live to work.
Peace out

when i was a student 4 or 5 years ago, i got a summer job, sorting 1cm squared white plastic cubes on a conveyor belt (looking for imperfections!) on 12 hour night shifts. believe me, when you've smoked a shedload of skunk, and you are then forced to look at white cubes on a slow moving conveyor belt, you really don't need acid!
i thought that was bad
a mate of mine is from grimsby, and he had a summer job impaling fish, through the eyes, on spikes on a conveyor belt
top that!

My worst job - Painting the wall of a warehouse white.
The warehouse was around 1/4 mile long and 10m high.
When I walked into work in the morning I wanted to cry :(
Or - in the same warehouse - I used to push an industrial dust bustin' machine around all day - there was no particular pattern to the cleaning - just someone had to push it around all day. Even worse though the guy I was working with was the head of the Clash fanclub. At the time I could proberly tell u anything about them - now I find it hard to name the lead singer, although I did get his autograph. :)
Last year i got a summer job testing grain for silos, worst job ever.
Had to lay out 100 individual seeds stick them to tape, squash them, then count how many green ones there was. All day
ahhhhhhhhhh

what a man
what a group
what a loss to the world of music
I think one of you talented producers on here needs to nick the bassline from Radio Clash and turn it into a dnb tribute monster

Being a skint ass bitch all my life ive had loadsa shit jobs.
Heres my worst 3 startin with the shittest...
1)Packing Nuetradol toilet cleaner and carpet cleaner all day... it was the funny looks you got on the bus on the way home that was the worst (Due to the frousty smell)!
2)Putting Plastic caps on a conveyor belt and then putting a rubber ring seel inside 11pm - 7am
3)Starting at 7am, in a field picking roses or sitting in a shed de-thorning them with a knife... end up covered in cuts, bruises and embedded thorns.

When i left high school i got a job with CJS roofing contractors to line my pockets for the summer hols.
My job consisted of getting a stack of tiles about 7-8 (weighing about 15 Kilos),and then carrying them up a ladder abd placing them on the scaffolding! Id do that all day long from 7am through till 5. At the end of a week they would put £100 in my hand which almost brought tears to my eyes every time. :cry:
By the end of the summer my right arm looked like a steroid infested lump of muscle and my hands looked like they had been smashed up with a large hammer!
And, i had a supremely unhealthy smoking habbit wich the nice workmen had taught me!
Every time i even look at the roof of a house it makes me shudder:(
I also worked at maccys for about 3 years - but worse stilli was dish washer in the post house hotel at haydock racecourse and that was just one big fat fucking shit of a job. My milkround was better.

Sure that wasn't from engaging in too much of another type of right-arm exercise? :p

I lasted about 2 months at Burger King before I left after having a massive row eith my uptight bitch of a manager
Sample quote;
Her; "You're fucking useless, you'll never amount to anything!"
Me; "You still work in Burger King!"
Her; "Get the fuck out!"

i had a six month stint in Maccy Dees, when i was 16.
Uniform , some skin tight pocketless trousers and a gay shirt with a shit cap, nice. saved up to get some of the shittest plastic decks tho.
other shit summer job.. lasted one week .
similar to Arsta far i. taking plastic from a mould and checking it. put in bag... with one 15min break all day. working along side a (real) spastik who'd been there for two years, saying have you done this before?
:drewl:
i spent one day work in a pig abbotoir. they're lined up by thier front hooves one after the other and you basically slit their throat. now this isn't difficult if your used to it - they're still rattling and screaming however so not only do you have to listen to 30 pigs screaming, the one your prepping keeps kicking you in the bollocks. And the feeling of warm blood oozing over your hand and up to your armpit - not nice. never wear baggy t shirts. but the worse thing was that the pigs knew what was happening to them; so added to the fact that their digestive system was held in the wrong position for something like half an hour they shat themselves as well. so blood shit, add to that farmers and lorry drivers. and the wanker who pushed me in. i lasted three days.

Not including 1.5 days training.....I lasted 3 hours at B.T.
It was a temp job, I was told it was going to be customer services,,,,it was actually "cold-call" telesales.
I saw the training through and gave it a bash to see if I was any good at it.
2 hours later - and not a single sale - the guy who was supervising me started telling me to "Just pretend they said yes"
So I was billing people a tenner, for a service they clearly didn't want - after they clearly said NO.
That's theft as far as I'm concerned - so I told my supervisor (an Australian bloke called......Bruce !) I was off for my coffee break & didn't go back.

I have to own up to having a shite job, 5 years in maccys, its a killer. Starting to drive me insane, I just go in and buzz off how shit it is to myself. Have to work weekends which causes me to miss countless beastly drum & bass nights, bastards.
