I did both. Love MC D's. Hated telemarketing. I never felt so much rejection in my life

Sorry, Soror that you had a bad McDonald's experience. Knowing that company like I do you should have been rotated to learn something else.

My worst job was Burger King. They never trained me. They just told me to put the pickles on and then gave me a broom and a mop. I quit 2 days later!

I feel you all on the telemarketing...I did it for a week and quit. The money and the rude customers weren't worth the time and stress.

Sorhors and sisterfriends,

My worst job was working on the front line and second line at good ole - Roy Rogers. We had to wear these horrible cow girl straw hats with these denim wrap around skirts and white shoes with thick nylons.

The pay was terrible and you smelled like their nasty roast beer at the end of the work day!

I worked for UPS one summer so that I could buy my first car. The place felt like a boiler room and I had to unload trucks, (at that time I was about 110 pounds), so a lot of the packages weighed at least half my weight and more. I can also understand the sucky time of working for McDonalds.....(HORRIBLE). I would get teased by my friends and family for smelling like fries

Working in an animal hospital....in the kennel!

Although I love animals to death....smelling like crap and attending to mean, diseased cats and dogs was not my thing...the pay sucked too!

working at this market research firm where I had to call people to conduct surveys. It was so boring and required no effort what so ever. We had to work long hours for very little pay. For those of you who have done telemarketing, I feel you! Although I wasn't selling anything, people treated us as if we were! And although there were a few respondents I spoke with who were nice, a lot of them were arrogant and borderline evil! But the worst aspect of the job was that anyone could get hired there. Therefore, the workplace was EXTREMELY ghetto! For example, people were fighting at the job and pregnant women were smoking like it was going out of style. I did managed to stay there for about six months.

My worst job was my first job. I took over a early morning newspaper route when I was a jr in high school. I had to get up at dark-o-clock

to pick up the papers, then fold them and deliver them to roughly 30 houses. I had to be at school by 830 am and I was late to class a couple of times so I couldn't risk a bad grade for cash. (I didn't need to work at the time) I was already running low on energy because I was on the track team, assistant coaching a gymnastics team, a cheerleader, school band [flute] and girl scouts. I quit after 2 weeks and a PITIFUL paycheck.

Okay my first job was at Chuck E Cheese...not only did i have to dress up as Chucky in 80 degree wheather i had to sing and dance to spoiled brats.......i had to get on my hands and knees with a brillo pad and clean all the gray spots because my manager though we were not cleaning well with the mop.....if you think that is all.....for 3 months i was only making $4.25 an hour they call it training pay a.k.a "slave labor". i had fun with my friends but i still have back pain this day from carrying buckets of ice to manually fill the salad bar....... " Bad Chucky,Bad Chucky" instead of "where a kid can be a kid" " where a kid can scrub toliets " ::somebody hug me::

Everybody?? The worst job ever... has to be... a KIRBY VACUUM SALESPERSON! It was truly the worst experience I have ever had! Customers were under the impression that I was coming in to shampoo their carpets, not sell them an overpriced (yet useful and very durable

) piece of equipment.

Needless to say, I never made a sale. That job definitely didn't last long.

P.S.- I heard Oprah tell her audience that she used to sell them too! Nice to know I'm not the only one.

SigmaRhoyalty2K1,

That definitely has to be the worst job! Ha! Ha!
