Your worst job experience
ad
Figured we have a running thread on peoples current professions, might be interesting to hear some of our worst job experiences.
My worst was a country store in the deli dept. It was probably the most depressing experience of my life. All my coworkers were basically low bottom junkies, with terrible attitudes. The deli smelled like preservatives and cigarette smoke from the dozens of breaks these people took. I worked there for 2 months, each day worse than the last.

night shift in ER department, drunk college kid, very drunk college kid, vomiting like a town fountain, all the while shitting himself with that awesome alcohol diahrea and having to cut his clothes off. oh yeah
I worked at walmart in high school changing tires and oil. My boss was a complete fat fuck duesche who thought he was the man because he was a supervisor at walmart and treated everyone like shit. So one day I got tired of his shit and shot at his car with my paintball gun while my buddy was changing the oil. That was my resignation letter to Walmart
The only one that comes to mind was my previous job and it's hard to tell if I disliked the job itself or by its association. In short, my ex girlfriend moved to another city with my children (to punish me for breaking up with her, I contend) and I couldn't stand being away from them. That my then-employer wouldn't transfer me to the city, I hastily quit my job and moved to the city where my children were at and got the first job I could get which was a contractor job for a major satellite installation company. Anyways, while the pay was decent, the benefits were horrible and while I was looking for a place to stay, I slept in my company van. Yes, I know I had other options. But, at this point I was paying for child support and trying to procure a down payment for a new rental property while paying for the rental property at my previous home. Anyways, this employer would send me all around town so that by the time I returned to the city, it was dark and I couldn't see my children.
So, basically, it was the lowest point of my life. Living in a van (no, not down by the river) in a town where I knew nobody and unable to see my children. Perhaps the job wasn't that bad, but I definitely cringe when I think of that place. Thankfully, they closed their doors over five years ago and it opened the door for me to get on with a new career.
I'm In foundation business. I had a couple of footings that were so big that we had to bring in a pier truck to drill 20 ft holes before we dug the footing. The shitty part about it is that when the drill comes out it spins the dirt off the bit and the dirt goes everywhere. So after each hole we have to cover it with plywood so no dirt will go back in the hole. You have to stand there with a come along and rake all the dirt away from the hole. Then after about 30 holes you have to go back and make the carp that goes in the hole and then fill it with concrete. It's pretty miserable.
I had over 60 jobs before I was 25..all of them sucked..
The laundry room,.....in prison
My worst job:
Age 18 mcdonalds lobby worker, cleaning piss in the toilet floors and sick on the lobby floor, one of the most humiliating jobs, especially being in a heavily female dominated job when ur a dude, i get dickhead teenagers bored nothing to do, throwing shit at me trying to start stuff, which i have to deal with "professionally" rather than go apeshit. One of the most boring unforfilling jobs you can do. Even the mcdonalds kitchen staff didnt want to do my job
15 years old, 5.85$/hr @ Burger King. The smell of BK makes me wanna puke still to this day.
Installing underfloor insulation, rolling around in cat/dog shit for 10 hours a day, getting bitten by insects and getting the polystyrene into the eyes fkn stings. Getting minimum wage makes it all worth while tho
I worked at an amusement park cleaning toilets and urinals. 2nd day of work, getting trained on how to clean the urinal. This 10 yr old kid comes up, pees everywhere except the urinal. Points his finger at me while laughing says "you have to clean my pee". He ran away before I could do anything. Next thing you know, my supervisor who was there tells ME to clean it.
I quit the next day. $6.25/hr is not worth it.
AnonBahaha and with your avator to top it..so funny
AquaManworst job experiences gave me a clear insight of what I want or not want to do, although at the moment I felt f**d
so now I look them differently
worst: insurance salesman
HardBodEricVolkeswagon Part #128 ( a part that is razor sharp on all sides) Hit the back of my right arm (tricep) and opened me up, and i didn't even feel it, AND it didn't bleed, i walked up to my manager and showed him my arm and said "This bad?" and his face turns white and they called the amberlamps, but i refused to be taken by them, instead my friend drove me to hospital and a beautiful nurse stitched up with 44 stitches to the back of my arm, luckily all it hit was meat, no nerves no veins no nothing. I don't work there anymore.
