mushroom 12,450 Posted May 19, 2014 Report Share Posted May 19, 2014 The majority of my jobs have been rubbish I've been in call centres, factories, catering and they have all been absolute bollocks. My current employment isn't my worst but it's up there. The repetitiveness, bullshit (stupid training modules, 'procedures' etc) and generally taking the whole thing far too seriously does my head in. Some managers walk about thinking they're the dogs bollocks, and business / area managers??? You'd think their shit didn't stink. Arseholes. Can I get fries with that :laugh: Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RemyBolt 420 Posted May 19, 2014 Report Share Posted May 19, 2014 I have had some rubbish jobs, but I always used to have fun with them. For example, at a chem factory, I used to draw funny patterns on my clothing in bleach and tell the boss the bleach had splashed in that smiley face pattern...totally by accident. I would put bottles on the conveyor belt the wrong way too, so that I could get extra time off, when the machine screwed up haha. Got fired from McDonalds on my first day. The customer said they wanted a BigMac meal. I asked what drink. They guy said "I don't care mate. Surprise me." So simultaneously shouted "BOO" as I lunged forward at him. How was I supposed to know he had a dodgy heart? He laughed, but his wife complained and I was told to go home, and not worry about coming back tomorrow. I did get a free McDonalds lunch from them....so who got the last laugh really?! That'll show them! Did security work for a while. That was hysterical! For minimum wage, did they really expect me to stop anyone from stealing? I'm not getting a blackeye over a tin of beans! Screw that. Pay me more and I'll take more risks. For minimum wage, you get minimum effort. Everytime a manager told me off...well, needless to say, there was less effort put in on my behalf. I once leaned in and told a guy, "I know you have vodka up your shirt. I'd suggest putting it back and coming back in 4 hours when I finish my shift." That was a lot of effort to do that, so I naturally had to take a 2 hour lunch break! Obviously. Working with a couple of Kurdish guys at ParcelForce loading and unloading lorries, at the night shift, was harsh. But it was good to learn Kurdish and be able to chat with them in their language. The things they used to say about the boss were hysterical! Propper laugh. Boring job, back breaking effort, but highly educational on Kurdistan. Other than that...not sure really. Just general low paid boring jobs that you just have to make fun of. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

abarrett 462 Posted May 19, 2014 Report Share Posted May 19, 2014 The worst job We got a call from a housing association asking could we clean a flat out Wash the walls and the wood and Lino floors Yes no problem was the answer We turned up the following day to the flat only to find out the bloke that lives there had a strange habit This was to push his finger up his rusty sheriffs badge to the first knuckle Then strike it on the walls and floors and any other flat surface The whole place looked like leopard print We cleaned it out when the chap got back he was happy with the job He hadn't been back 2 mins before his hand went down the back of his bags ready to prod the Chocolate star fish Takes all sorts could of been worse he could of offered a hand shake this has got to be the only time I would have refused Cash for a job 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
STRANGER 948 Posted May 19, 2014 Report Share Posted May 19, 2014 (edited) Good topic. Ive had my fair share of 'shit jobs'. Most involve farm work, like the time the vacuum on the slurry pump blew gallons and gallons of rancid shit through the back window of the tractor before I could bail out. Or pressure washing (never again) for weeks on end, tractors, cow sheds, cubicles, mats...basically anything covered in shit. The worst is when you accidentally point it into a corner and get a face full Done a full season on a rearing field when I was 15, working crazy hours bitting putting sheds up taking sheds down, the whole lot, only for the boss not to pay me at the end finally managed to get 600 quid off the c**t for what must have been hundreds of hours of work, funny how quick you grow up when shit like that happens. Still rather do that than a job like Rubys to be honest. Cant do 'the customer is always right' pish, no their not, most are c**ts Working in Maccys must be the most demoralising soul destroying shit known to man, everyone you meet on a daily basis thinks your a looser, even your co workers lol Edited May 19, 2014 by STRANGER 5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
