i currently work in afghanistan and last year we were at a place that was getting closed down, and eventually we were making GBS threads in the little poo poo bags and taking bottled water showers while sleeping in a tent with a bunch of fuelers who would crawl into bed with their goddamn boots on. there was always a line to use internet and there were mosquitos biting the poo poo out of me the whole time and since i finished the books i brought and mail was no longer a thing i would go to the internet cafe and load up webpages to read back in bed. this only lasted about ten days but i would read the call center rant thread in BFC and think "well at least i'm not working in a call center anymore"

Imagine working in a fall centre. You'd enter your cube and just fall continuously for 7.5 hours in a vaccuum and then clock out. Man that job would really blow!

I used to work as a sort of handyman at a tenement this slumlord I knew owned and one of my many responsibilities was cleaning out the apartments of dead or evicted crackheads (tenants). Please enjoy the following list of bizarre and disgusting poo poo crackheads do. -- A pile of jizzum tissues and syringes that stood a foot high and was behind a dresser -- Crackheads for some reason (I saw this no less then twice) like to create porno chimeras where they cut out of porno magazines different parts of women and then tape/glue them together into what I assume is their perfect spank-doll. -- I opened the fridge in one of these apartments once and there was a dead rat, a box of baking soda, and nothing else. -- Poop in the sink

I once worked in a special care home for the mentally ill/disabled. I had to clean the place, help prep meals, hand out meds (highly illegal in my country btw, me not being a registered nurse or nursing assistant), and be a counselor to the residents. Some of them were barely-functional Down's patients, some of them were suicidal, and some were prone to fits of violence. I worked for minimum wage, worked 12h shifts, and quite often was scheduled for a shift that started 8h after the last one ended. After I'd had enough and left, the owner stiffed me out of nearly a month's wages. Still better than working in a call center.

I have to steady myself and take a deep breath before pushing my cart into a line and meeting their cold, dead gaze. They work for a company that hangs up flyers saying "lol have you tried welfare!? cuz we'll never pay you more and you might be starving."

Value Village! It's a second hand store that's actually a terrible profiteering corporation and all the employees are retarded. Of the two guys I didn't mind working with, one of them would smoke himself retarded and only offer one-word conversations for his shift and the other had absolutely crippling body odor. I worked sales and warehouse during the weekends, which corporate policy deemed to be the 'slow' times. So instead of the usual 10 warehouse workers, it'd be me and someone else. A typical shift would have me unloading/loading someone's car in the warehouse, then getting called onto the sales floor by the fat idiot manager who would then inform me that there were bags of donations over at the front. Like, they would waddle over to the front of the store, see the donations and then leave them there. I got written up a whole bunch for not complying with impossible orders, like: "sort and price this entire warehouse in the next half hour" or, my favourite (and the cause of like, 5 write ups) "We don't want any couches left in the warehouse, but we have a strict rule of 3 out on the floor at any one time, you understand this, right?" Meanwhile there are no less than 8 couches in the warehouse  fake edit: it's the only job I just walked off of

stopping people on a main street to ask if they wanted to sample beer, except we had to ask a bunch of weird screening questions first to make sure they wouldnt be offended by the "do you wanna do a blind test on some upcoming summer beer brands" question which meant we weirded out 90% of potential people, also there was no pay cept commission

Sears. Electronics department. Constant drone of tvs that echo throughout the loving place, manager who never trained me, and all my coworkers hated me instantly because they were already getting poo poo hours and I didn't help. Under minimum wage cause of commission which was impossible because who the gently caress shops at sears?? Only guy who had full time was a divorced guy in his a 40s with a DUI on his record. Dude told me tangled looked good in 3d. Oh and HR lady was a huge oval office for no reason

Ride operator at a major amusement park. 14 hour days, dingy living conditions, bad cafeteria food, and working to serve people who go to amusement parks. Lots of sexy international coworkers though. I cherish all my memories of off the clock activities.

Delivering newspapers from one end of a Texas county to another in the summer. Nearly died of heat stroke multiple times because the dust from all the dirt roads choked out my ac unit, had to piss in a bottle if I wanted to save time and be done before dark, had to spend upwards of 30 dollars a day on gas alone, and at the end of the month, the paycheck was something like 600 dollars and I still had to pay them 200 for the newspapers out of that. I worked out the math once and it was something like a dollar an hour before expenses, and my wife substituted for me one day while I was sick and nearly died from heatstroke herself--my mother and I were worried that she was late and following the route backwards found her sitting in the car on the side of the road passed out from the heat. Every day I told myself, "this job sucks, but I'm getting paid." Lol. Just before the month was out I got run off a gravel road by a speeding yokel and crashed my car, which cost upwards of 1400 dollars to fix, so at the end of month one I was well over 2000dollars in debt. I have never quit a job with such prejudice.

Staples is a loving shitshow that will complete the process of becoming irrelevant and killing itself by 2020. what i thought i was doing was being a bench technician fixing computers. what that actually entails is tricking people to leave there computers there for $200 so you can run some pedestrian noob loving antivirus that doesnt work. then you tell them its broke and refo it while your fat manchild boss yells at you. then when its slow you lie to people to scare up more computer sales. staples the company only makes money on underpaying you $10 an hour for $100 an hour benchwork, on that scare-lie repair service and on protection plans. if you dont scare them into adding hundreds onto the cost of the computer they loose money, and your in trouble for being retarded. ya i lasted 3 months, started giving out my number and undercharging. gently caress those thieves, i will not be a professional liar E: i do embedded systems and automotive electronics for chrysler now, feels good HATECUBE fucked around with this message at 16:39 on Aug 14, 2014 |

Security guard. 12-14 hours outside in -22 to -40 weather during the winter. Sir, uh, sir, please don't piss on the fuel tanks or near the generator. Thank you sir. EDIT: Runners up are: Going door to door trying to scam people into letting me estimate how much it would cost to paint their house. Oh yes and food service work. I rotated between cashier, drive through and kitchen staff for two years. I remember being followed by strays on my way home because I smelled so delicious. Janitor or Day Porter. Three towers to clean and eleven thousand square feet in the plaza to sweep and mop twice a day. Oh and cleaning motel rooms. Holy gently caress. Forklift driver. I am not a good forklift driver and will never apply for such a job ever again. When I'm on a forklift, I'm 'that guy'. A trucker almost beat the poo poo out of me when I punched two holes through his trailer while loading it with cedar. His brother actually had to hold him back while I apologized profusely and ran in the other direction. When I was a janitor, my shady employers tried to pay me with pizza. I had to take them to the labor board to get my loving paycheck. tango alpha delta fucked around with this message at 18:00 on Aug 14, 2014 |

I worked at staples for a year and quit because everyone else had been there for 10+ years and gently caress that poo poo forever. Was tricked into learning how to perform copy center duties and tech bench duties, because I was told I'd get a pay raise. Instead I just got the lovely tech bench work. At least I wasn't lying to people in the copy center. One time a guy came in while i was patrolling the floor and he asked me about Corel draw and photoshop. I told him to go home and get a trial of Photoshop, and if he liked it, to pirate it. gently caress that. I never got that raise, and I moved to another staples in the city. Even through I was trained to work tech bench, I told my boss I wouldn't work it and he never scheduled me for it. I had rad bosses at that place.
