The worst job you EVER had
 

What was it?

Oh the memories.......
 

Bank CSA

That mess was so stressful and mentally abusive, I never want to do it again. The whole "The bank is a laid back easy job" bit is a CROCK:mad:

Value City.

It's a retail department store that sells dang near everything dirt cheap. I worked in the back putting clothes on hangers and it was the WORST. I only lasted two and a half hours.

I was a waitress for all of 2 weeks. HATED IT!!!!!!:mad:

Worst Job Eva!
 

My worst job was at TJ Maxx. I was about 16 years old and it was so manual labor intensive...hanging and folding clothes...organizing the fitting room..and doing inventory. We couldn't leave the store at night until it was spotless...often keeping us an hour or two after the store closed. I was there for a short period of time...about two weeks. I thereafter worked at a department store during my senior year of high school where I earned commission and had more help in organizing clothes...I worked at Macy's and it was fun making "that good money" (for the time at least).

I worked as an "usher" at a movie theatre when I was 16. That was my first and worst job. I hated cleaning the theatres after a movie, i hated cleaning the snack area before we closed, and I hated having to wear that ugly little black vest with the red bowtie. I really hated doing all that for $5.15 an hour. The only good thing that came of me working there was the free movies.

shortest job in history
 

The job was advertised as a public relations specialist for a restaurant. Come to find out, it was door to door sales selling coupon books for a fast food chain. Lasted only 1 1/2 hours!!!

The worst job I have had was at a Human Service agency doing crisis intervention with families who were dealing with the welfare/foster care system. The people who ran the agency were the most unprofessional folks I have ever had the displeasure of working with. Right from the director to the other administrative heads below her position. When my boss hired a group of us to jumpstart a new part of the program, she also hired an interim supervisor who turned out to be the wicked witch of the west, broomstick up her butt and all. Everyone I was hired with slowly but surely quit, one by one..until none of us were left. That was one job that will never show itself on my resume lol

THIS IS A LONG ONE!
 

i answered an ad for a management trainee program that deals with missing and exploited children. I get to the place and they had a group seminar to discuss the different programs they do (like fingerprinting, going to schools to speak to the kids about not talking to strangers, working with local police departments, doing the "have you see me" mailings.... lies, lies). All of the speakers were well dressed, college educated, well spoken.... and they were looking for college grads to come in entry level and then work within the management trainee program to ultimately become manager at one of their branches... SOUNDS GOOD?

Well, those of us that were seriously interested in the position were invited to spend a day out in the field with a few associates to see what a day would be like. My day comes and im dressed semi casual (cause i dont know where we're going) and i walk in and the most CRACKHEADISH folks i'd every seen are splitting up the groups! They put me in a group of 3 ladies and we're driving... the whole time i kept asking where are we going, WHERE ARE WE GOING, and no one would say anything! Finally they pulled into a plaza parking lot (yeah this is a good spot) and proceeded to BEG PEOPLE FOR MONEY!

NO TABLE SET OUT IN FRONT OF KMART, NO BROCHURES STATING THEIR PURPOSE, JUST ASKING FOLKS FOR MONEY FOR MISSING KIDS! and the kicker was that they didnt get an hourly wage, just a percentage of whatever they BEGGED for that day!

I was like WTF? and since i didnt drive i was stuck. I sat my happy A$$ in subway for the rest of the day.

(did they really think that anyone that went to college for 4 years was going to actually WANT that job???)

To ClassyLady:
I loved Value City - but then again, I worked in the Loss Prevention department. Great job!!!

I reserve a place in my heart for hating Burger King. First jobs suck!!!

The Public Library
 

The summer after senior year, I worked in the children's section shelving books. HATED IT!! I mainly disliked it because a girl younger than me got to shelve the real books and do check outs and I was smarter than her. As soon as I would straighted/shelve a section, some kid would come, grab 20 books randomyl (PICTURE BOOKS) and only take 1 book so I would have to reshelve the mofos in ABC order. :mad:

Those were the longest 8 weeks of my life.:mad:

Tsk, Tsk, Tsk
 

Y'all, don't ask me why, but when I was 16, I took a telemarketing position at Fred Astaire Dance Studio. The job entailed calling people at dinner time to tell them they had just won free ballroom dance lessons IF they could answer three simple questions about Fred Astaire. Well, out of the 100 people I would call a night, maybe 5 wouldn't hang up on me. Out of those 5, only 2 would actually entertain answering the questions. I was so happy they stayed on the phone with me, I would give them the free lessons no matter if they answered the questions correctly or not. I think I only stayed at that job for like 3 weeks, but it was by far the worst one I've ever had.

I musta Blacked out these other ones
 

Thanks Bamboozled for reminding me :D

1. Last summer, took a job grading standardized tests. Now I can barely grade the papers for my kids that I see every day so I really don't know what in the BLUE blazes possessed me to work here. I sat next to 2 of the most annoying azz old azz people in the world. We sat on a computer all day but it was against policy to get on the InTERNET. :mad:

2. PIZZA HUT, late summer and early fall. 2 words: HATED IT. I know I talked about it in the how comes from back in the fall.

3. Phonathon @ Wittenberg.

This is, hands down, THE funniest post I have ever read on GC

You're making this up, right, cause that mess was TOO TOO funny!

You could have used that last line of your above post as a rhyme to get some $$ (I was like WTF....I was stuck).

LOLOLOLOL. Pretty Poodle, you know you gonna get clowned royally for telling us that one--but we still luv ya anyway
:D

I'll post mine after I laugh at a couple more of yalls. Whooo!!

Honorable Mention in the funniest post category
 

LOLOLOL

That post was SO FUNNY.....

(HOW FUNNY WAS IT??!!)

....that I am actually going to use that as a wisecrack punchline the next time someone tells me that they are a PR specialist (modified based on the actual business, of course).

Now you got to be bulljiving with that story, cause that does sound like a joke someone would say on Comic View, albeit a funny one.

Keep em' comin', yall!!!
