Never really had a worst job.... been pretty lucky I guess. The one I probably liked least was working as a "server" for a family friends catering company. It was good money, no cleanup duties, free food and booze though....

Re: whats the worst job you've ever had?

i had a "tech support" job for a company that dealt with real estate agents... basically holding their hand while using our website, and the job turned pretty quickly from me taking incoming calls to making outgoing calls, trying to sell them stuff they didnt want. i very quickly became disgruntled and thank god i'm not working for that piece of shit company any more. (when i started the company had about 30 people in the office, when i left, there were - including me - 4 people left plus the ceo, who by this point is probably/hopefully bankrupt as a motherfucker)

I used to work at Bally Total Fitness as a maintenance clerk. Basicly, I cleaned the machines and slacked off until later on in the night when i had to clean the showers and sauna room. In doing so, i had to clean all the pubes off of the drains.. all that for minimum wage... not fun.

Re: whats the worst job you've ever had?

mine was my first job ever, working at burger king... Since then i havnt looked back.

Glad to hear Wendy's is working out for you!

My worst was a telemarketing job. We had to get IT directors on the phone to take a 30 minute survey, and every three questions the script would throw in a "just a few more questions..." Sometimes you'd get 90% done and people would hang up, which I don't blame them for one bit. We were treated like cattle and the worst part was this piece of shit dickhole named Neil that managed out group. The guy wore these hopelessly outgrown 110% polyester clothes straight out of 1976. He was the most brainless bean-counting pencil-pusher I have ever met in my life, completely incapable of independent thought and could only follow directions, in other words the perfect middle manager!

Re: whats the worst job you've ever had?

^^^ My previous job was somewhat similar, although we were not doing surveys.... I worked at an IT Consulting company as an account manager.... i.e. boss handed down accounts and we serviced them with Consultants and take care of client needs....

Time came in 2000 - 2001 when the .com bubble burst, and our responsibilities increased to cold calling on clients. Man did I H.A.T.E. calling IT Managers and trying to setup accounts with them, people would hang up with us left right and center. Not to mention the nice things some would say before hanging up.

THE MOST demoralizing thing I have done.

Re: whats the worst job you've ever had?

I had just been discharged from the Marines and was waiting restlessly over the summer to begin my degree in the fall. Going to school in a small town in West Virginia, I had very little options for employment so I got a short term job as a server at a Cracker Barrel.

What I hated the worst is waiting on fat fucks with undisciplined kids that abused their existence on the earth and at my table. On many counts I could remember restraining myself from snatching some of these people up.

I always tip 30% if service is good!

Re: whats the worst job you've ever had?

I used to cold call for a credit card company as well... I would try to sell the cardholders some crappy credit card insurance. Talk about mean people! Karma is a bitch though as all those people who were mean to me got a call at 2AM from me or one of my drunk buddies.

Re: whats the worst job you've ever had?

Telelmarketing, hands down. What a miserable experience that was. Apart from the normal issues of having everyone crestfallen when they answer the phone and have it be a sales call, yell at you, cuss you out, etc., I had one day when I called 4, count 'em 4, people who had passed away and I just reminded whomever it was that picked up the phone of their loved one's death. It was terrible. One call that night, I'll never forget it:

Me: Hello, is Mrs. Jones in?
Him: No, she's been dead for ten years.
Me: Oh, I'm sorry to hear that.
Him: God, I miss her. It's a lonely life. [begins to cry]

It was heartwrenching.

Didn't help that I sucked at it. What can I say, I was selling complete shit and couldn't trick myself into thinking it wasn't.

Oh well. Didn't last long, at least...

I manually masterbate caged animals for artificial insemination.

I've got a buddy who does "animal sciences." I asked him one day what that was specifically, asked him to give me a "day in the life." He said, "well, yesterday, I was up to my shoulder in some cow's ass."

Did McDonald's as well...had fun with that in a twisted sense.

Yea well...

Me and a mate used to spit on burgers made for annoying drunken fuckers, screaming at the counter, he pissed in a large coke cup, i shot all kinds of sauce thru the kitchen, another colleague threw a bottle of whisky in the milkshake machine, cheese sticking contests (cheese-covered walls), for pickles the same story, rating chicks at the counter by shouting a number of hamburgers (even if there were none coming, confusing the guy checking the bin), throwing smurfs from happy meals into the frying pan rendering it useless with rush hour just starting and so making my manager stress the fuck out....anything to fuck around basically.

Not to mention that there was usually some fucker sitting right next to you that was a born telemarketer and closed 3/4's of his calls
