what the worst job you've had??

im not really liking my job all too well right now, i mean i love working with kids dont get me wrong but my boss is a TOTAL BYUTCH, she expects everything to be perfect as soon as she enters the building and if one thing is off she yells at the entire staff, plus shes always playing around with the kids and when the kids get loud she leaves it to us the hard task of calming them down after she just came in there and made them loud, But the worst part of dealing with her are the fake smiles and laughs i always have to pull out my @ss when she says a stupid joke and expects us to laugh. ugh thank god im leaving in 4 weeks. oh and the one of the worst things about this dayum job is that we get paid every 3 weeks. 3 F#KING WEEKS of having to wait to get paid, and when you do get paid your behind on the stuff you have to pay for anyways that the check just gets blown away in a couple of days and then you have to wait another 3 WEEKS for another pay check. oh and not to mention it takes me 2 hours just to get to the place since i have to take the bus, and i dont have a car right now, im not even exaggerating, 2 hours there and then 2 hours back when im done, i have to take 3 busses. if i had a car though, it would only take me about 40 mins, cause my brother has given me rides be4 but he cant do it everytime, but anyways im done ranting. what about the rest of OT? whats the worst job youve had??

In college I was hired by a telemarketing firm. My job was to call people and convince them to sign up for appointments with financial advisors for complimentary review of their finances. You were expected to obtain a certain amount of leads daily because they had a quota. I used to get all of mine in the first hour and then just mess around. I worked part time but they had these "lifers" who just worked at various telemarketting firms which there are many and they looked like zombies.

The boss used to sit on the other side of my cubicle and try to correct me as I talked to the people. She used to get angry because I didn't follow the script they gave me. I just talked to to the people. Following the script gave them too many opportunities to say no. I'd be on the phone and she'd be yapping in the background to do this and that say this or that. Know how annoying it is when you're talking to someone and someone else is badgering you.

I got sick of the place and would not show up, call in sick and began making up ridiculous excuses to not show up in the hopes they'd fire me.

[QUOTE="trastamad03"]Video Game tester... Worst. Job. Ever.DeathnoteSz

Testing consisted of looking at a checklist and going over it per level. Sometimes requiring replaying the same level ,or spot, over and over and over. Once you found a bug, you had to try to recreate it, then submit it to the Devs. (Sometimes the funnest parts of the games were cut cause the Devs couldn't fix it... namely the Harvester section in Terminator Salvation, where you would have to fight against in, running through buildings, getting captured, shooting nearby gas trucks to make it flinch so you'd escape... All those cool part, removed, cause they couldn't fix the numerous problems with it. Crashes, unsynced animation, models not loading, etc....

This is of course IF the build that was given to you was in a working state. Half the time the games crash. Unfinished content that would not let the tester finish the level or whatever. Rinse and repeat over and over and over all day long... It becomes very tedious and boring and dreadful.

THE ONLY up-side of being a Video Game tester, is the insanely hilarious bugs you sometimes encounter. The most noteable one was in Tales of Desperaux... I wanted to see what would happen if you set the game settings to low (I was on PC)... The games UI started using Wii icons, full of mis-matching buttons, graphics issues and best of all... Every model in the game became John Carpenter's The Thing. It was hilarious and creepy at the same time.

One summer way back when I babysat two toddlers and an infant 5 days a week. The infant was fine, the toddlers...:shock:

I love kids, but too much is just too much.

I was a fry cook for five years. By that I mean french fries. I just say fry cook because it at least makes you think of a variety of fried foods, but unless you count onion rings there was no variety.

I never wanted to hit any of them, but they definately ran me ragged. It's the screaming that got to me, because when one toddler started screaming, the other would as well, and then the baby would start crying.

And the poop. Infant poop is fine, but toddler poop may as well be man poop. And when you potty train them and they get up off the toilet with poop hanging out their hole while you're running another kid down because you just saw him run through the hall with the cat in a headlock...

...okay, I'd love to have kids someday, but one at a time, please. Get one out of diapers before you have another, thanks.

worked in a korean fruit market before school started work at like 4:45am the owners had no intention of speaking to me in english started stealing chocolate milks erryday eventually told them to fvck themselves because i was going to school tired and dirty and they were cutting me moneycheese_game619

Well isn't that nice.

Well, it was just me, in someone elses house with their kids 9 hours a day 5 days a week for two-and-a-half months. The two toddlers were twins (identical, not fraternal) and that just confused matters even more. "I thought I just saw you over there...wait...right."

Mcdonalds...that place drains you.

$150 a week. For a 14-year-old in the late 80's that was a lot of money where I come from.

So I spent almost all of it on video games.:D

Over the phone technical and customer support for a company that makes TV's, DVD Players, and whatknot for stores like Wal-Mart. :cry:

Farmhanding. I broke 3 of my ribs last year when a hay bale fell on me.

Worked as what was essentially a janitor at Target. They made me clean the toilets every 30 minutes to an hour, so throughout the day I'd be wiping **** off the walls (LITERALLY WTF DO PEOPLE DO IN THOSE BATHROOMS LOL) , cleaning piss off the ground, wiping boogers off the sink, etc......then when done with that I usually had to go heavy lifting in the back department. Quit after three weeks, without giving a two week notice.

I worked at Wafflehouse for a day...

I was stood for eight hours a day, in a glasshouse, in mid summer, Poking a finger into soil, counting out 5 seeds and throwing them in. Repeat ad infinitum. To top it off, the containers were made from a particularly squeaky form of polystyrene that used to set my hair on end.

"Soul destroying" doesn't come close.

I used to work for this company in their warehouse, unloading trucks, loading trucks, doing heavy work. They would take advantage of the fact that I'm big and can lift heavy sh!t. I got tired and never went back.
