So, a new QOTD: What was your worst job ever and why?

hmm, good question.

When I graduated from college, I worked at a travel agency. The job wasn't bad, but the owner was an ***. His idea of motivating employees was to threaten them with their job everyday. He wasn't too hard on me, but he was so mean to everyone else. There were 3 other people there & they all had worked there for about 10 years apiece. Well, one girl was in a wheelchair & when it was time for her annual review, instead of giving her a raise, he told her how much he had spent to put a ramp in & widen the bathroom for her. He was awful. Anyway, everyone had put up with him for years & years....until me. I got 'em all fired up & after I quit, they all quit one by one! Yipee!
 
[COLOR=9900CC] QOTD---working at salvation army for my aunt!! i was 12, and the ladies kept talking to me like i was 3!! example----"bring your little broom right over here, and make sure you get up all the itty bitty dust bunnies, okay!!!" sorry, but it REALLY annoyed me!! and they acted like i had no clue what i was doing!!!--"no, no, no, that shirt cant go here, it has to go in this stack!!" hello lady, i was walking towards the correct stack, but i had to go around this wrong one to get to the correct one!! lol, that was horrible!!:teeth: :teeth: [/color]
 
[color=ff66cc]IHOP - International House of Pancakes perhaps? I love that place! Did you get the chocolate-chip pancake with whip-cream smiley face?!:) LOL

Too bad you didn't get to ride rides! Stupid brothers! LOL! My favorite go-carts there is Wild Wild Woody's! (Be good Rick, Joe may still be watching;) ).LOL

I thought the food at the NASCAR cafe was blah..LOL! I don't think I noticed a HardRock Cafe! We ate at Fuddruckers, it was yummy!

Who the heck is Heather!?!LOL![/color]
 
Worst job? I worked as a silver service waitress for a big hotel one christmas and hated it. The chiefs were nice but you were run off your feet all the time, the customers were rude and the pay louzy!
It was my first paid job and am glad it was only for a few months.
 

Oh yeah, one more bad job. One time I worked inside the hot dog cart thingie in front of the Krogers for a day in the middle of summer. That sucked. But they paid me, like, $10 per hour!!!!

QOTD: my worst job was waiting tables in a steakhouse.I was the yougnest and got the worst shifts and had to share tips(it was pooled)
 
Guess she's gone. And we were just getting started.:(

I have to take Ella to the doctor, again. She's been sick since last Mon., 10 days now. This will be my 3rd trip to the Doctor. Her temp. returns every 3 days or so and she throws up every single night at bedtime. I feel so bad for her. They can't find anything wrong everytime I take her they change her cough medicine and decongestant but keep saying it's just a virus. She's lost 1-1/2 lbs off her little bitty baby body since last Mon.

Think positive, get well thoughts for us.

Don't forget to watch Survivor - Barb and Lewski. I think it is one of those re-cap episodes though.

What happens if I say what my worst job ever was, and then go on to say how much I hated it and why it was so terrible, and then there's someone on this board that does that for living? Oops. I've had so many jobs, it's hard to remember them all, though I've been at the same job now for 13 years, before that, throughout high school and college, I had A LOT of different jobs. I guess the worst was peeling asbestos from the walls and heating pipes in a building about to be converted. They didn't even give me a mask, for pete's sake, but what did we know about it then. They just told me to keep the windows open!! What other jobs...let's see...I've had run of the mill jobs...gas station attendant in South Jersey; movie theatre manager/projectionist (that was one of my favorite jobs of all time); painter; bronze/steel cutter (the pay was great, but the work was really, really hard!!); teacher.
So I guess peeling asbestos had to be the worst job ever!!
 
Hey billysotherdad, did you like Dawn of the Dead? Was Starsky & Hutch as bad as Rick said it was?
 
worst job was cleaning banks. it was just so boring and when I first moved to Orlando, I had to do something for money. quit doing it after about 3 weeks. no, actually that wasn't it. it was being a greeter at meijer, similar to a greeter at walmart. boring job and my feet hurt bad. i don't do standing jobs.
 
I didn't see DAWN OF THE DEAD, but I want to see it. But STARSKY AND HUTCH since I didn't read Rick's posting, I can't say if it's as bad as he says, so I'll say...yeah, it was pretty awful. DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY. As for as the other question about favorite chocolate bar (I thought I saw something about that...) Well, it's really hard to say. I like different chocolate for different moods. I love the traditional Hershey Bar. (almonds will do too). I love a Reese's Peanut Butter Cup. Nutrageous is so good. I'll take a Peppermint Patty for that kind of mood. I'll eat just about any kind of chocolate bar any time.

And ICE CREAM. EVERY DAY. PLEASE!
 
Thank goodness for friends in the doctor's office. A neighbor of ours works there, I called her and got a later appt. time. Poor little baby is napping and I hate to wake her up to take her in, knowing that once I get there I will be waiting for a while to see the doctor.

billysotherdad, eh, don't worry about saying anything in here. We don't get mad at each other on this thread. Now the dark side, that's another story.

Working at KFC sucks!

See, and nobody will come in here and argue with me or make me feel bad, 'cuz all my peeps are here and they got my back. K?

Lewski, I used to clean a bank too! It was a little bitty bank in a little bitty town. No one really ever went in there, so it wasn't hard work. I did it after I quit working to stay home with Daniel when he was 4 months old. I went 5 nights a week for b/w 1/2 hour to an hour and it paid $120/month! It really sucked, but it paid two bills at the time, the electric bill and the fuel bill. And I got to be home with my little baby.
 
Thanks for the pixie dust [COLOR=9900CC]oddball27[/COLOR]. I'll sprinkle it over Ella when she wakes up.

I had a good time playing, er I mean talking with you today. <a href='http://www.smileycentral.com/?partner=ZSzeb008' target='_blank'><img src='http://smileys.smileycentral.com/cat/7/7_2_107.gif' border=0></a> Don't stay away so long anymore!

QOTD: Answer - KFC, no explanation necessary.

OMG, OMG, OMG!!! :Pinkbounc :Pinkbounc You are my soul sister. I was waiting to read the rest of the board before I answered this QOTD, but I can't wait.

My worstestest job?

KFC! :teeth: Back when it was Kentucky Fried Chicken -- not KFC or Kitchen Fresh Chicken. :rolleyes: 1983 to 1985. $3.40 an hour. And it was in a bad part of town. I always knew when it was welfare day. The teenage girls with their two kids and missing teeth would come in. I'm sorry that's mean, but even as a high schooler, I thought it was wrong to be spending welfare money on overpriced fake mashed potatoes. ;)

The good part was that I worked with one of best friends. Oh, and with most of the managers we had, we could bring home leftovers. My neighbors loved me when I brought them boxes of chicken. ::yes::
 
[COLOR=9900CC]LoL, I won't!!!:teeth: :teeth: Hope she feels better soon!! I absolutely LOVE that name, Ella, it's just so pretty!!!:teeth:

Ever had Swoops?? The Reese ones are GOOD!!!!:teeth: :teeth: :teeth: :teeth: :p :teeth: :teeth: :teeth: :teeth: [/color]

Ok let me just say that, yes it did. BUTT, DHB with a wide *** is like me on a good *** day. You know what I mean? She thinks she's fat if the scale goes over a buck, twenty-five. She really has no idea what a "real" fat *** is.:rolleyes: Does that make any sense?

Sorry, I keep quoting you llebrekniT, but I had to respond to this too. Shhhhh, but don't you just hate people like that? :rolleyes: ;) I haven't seen a buck twenty-five since before I hit puberty. :teeth:

Oh shoot, shhhh, here comes DHB. :happy1: :angel:

Ohanafamily, you didn't sound like an old man at all. I love hearing peoples' stories. Especially when they grew different than me. ::yes::
