Worst job you ever had..........?

[Times Roman]

I'm sure we've all had some pretty skanky jobs?

I remember this one job when i was 16. Selling Kirby Vacuum's door to door. Responded to an ad in the paper. My supervisor was all woman. All 300lbs that is. She was constantly trying to get me to take her to bed. She was married to boot. "That's all right.... we have an open marriage". I deflected her advances as long as I could, then i just quit.

That job really sucked!

(And then a few years later, she met Cal.....)

[Standby]

I was once a gynecologist at a senior center lol.........really the worst job i ever had was working on a mink farm. The smell in the slaughter house was so terrible ill never forget it.

[Windex]

For me it was being a cashier part time for a grocery store. Almost everything had a code, only a few items actually scanned. Took forever to forget all of the codes. So repetitive and a waste of memory.

[wmaousley]

Had a friend that worked for a Temp Agency and needed to fill a few positions fast, and I volunteered for it to help her out not knowing what I would be doing. Well I get to the place (Waste Management type of facility). They basically separate trash, and the managers of this place thought that me & my buddy were from the diversion center like the other people that showed up with us. Diversion Center is where inmates are released for work. Well I had no idea wtf was going on, just thought the manager was an asshole. Well I was tasked with climbing into a long pipe roughly 20-30 meters long and when I was standing in it I couldn't touch the top or sides Pretty big). Well this thing it like a centrifuge for trash. It spins and the teeth inside separate the trash from carcasses and other shit. Well I was given a pick axe and told to clean it out. 6" thick all around, hacking away at this shit for an hour until I hit bone. (Dead Deer) the smell was so bad I yelled **** this and went to the break room climbed on the table and went to sleep, my buddy did the same. Soon after the manager came back in and said if you dont go back to work I will write a report and send you back to jail. We said alot of choice words and he actually wrote a report on us to give to the diversion center. We laugh about it now, and learned not to do favors for friends that work at temp agencys.

Worst job was the one I liked the best. Good hard work. I did drywall for a little over 2 years. Hanging, scraping, taping, spraying, you name it I did it. Mostly scraping, hauling the junk/trash out after it's finished hanging. I also did quite a bit of stocking when needed. Moving sheet rock from one house to another mostly by myself. Now the double 1/2" 12' isnt bad, it's only 180 lbs but the double 5/8" is 240 and for a 5' 8" 155lb kid trying to keep up with 6'+ guys it takes it's tole after a while. After almost 2 years I herniated 2 discs carrying 2 5/8 12' sheets by myself through the mud and the wind caught it and POP, there went the back. Lifetime of pain ever since.

I wish I had a smarter boss who said NO, dont try to do to much... I always went the extra mile to do as much as I could and now I'm paying the price. The back isnt worth it.

Besides that job the one I really didnt like was when I was 17. I spent the summer insulating underfloors of mostly old construction and blowing insulation into attics. Underfloors = damp, dark, spiders!!!! and other things you are glad you cant see. Attics during the summer = full body paper suit, face mask and 140 deg attic. I had to pull my co worker out one time due to passing out from the heat and finished by myself. The owner wanted me to quit school and work full time... Hell no.... I didnt want to do that even part time. He ended up being my first wife's Uncle. I didnt know until the day of the wedding. LOL

Speaking of hot attics full of blown in insulation that I hate after work tonight I have to go up into my attic to install a new bathroom fan. Thanks for reminding me.

This wasn't really a job more a favour for my Dad's buddy who owned a load of Computer Superstores one time. When it was luiqudated he got all the Stock from like 10 stores. There was about 10000 ink cartridges all mixed up. I had to organise and sort all of these it was soul destroying took me over a week to do it they where all over 2 rooms wrecked my head. Got it done though and helped me save for my car.

[Eddie_m63]

About 10 years ago I worked this truck wash washing semis making almost nothing, big muddy dump trucks wet all day and yep no freaking money...We made more money when we got pay by the drivers to get the wash of course the owners had no clue we were keeping the money but still worst job ever.

[Braveone]

Shit, worst job? Working in a box factory. Cutting cardboard all day, making box dividers for xmas bulb boxes. We took that job from the local handicap center. That should tell you the skill level involved lol. 4-10hr days and I swear my brain turned to oatmeal. Hardest job? Deer processing at my cousins plant. In a month or so we do over 1500 deer. FML It's total carnage in there. 12-15hrs a day and they never stop coming in. I ****in hate the taste of deer lol.

Cleaning the beet trucks after harvest, think the thickest nastiest mud with fermented beets stuck to it.

4 times a year we would have to butcher 50-75 chickens, it sucked.

Cleaning grain silo's can be dangerous and in the summer its hot, dusty and makes you itch.

Castrating bulls, no more has to be said.

Cleaning tractors much like beet trucks except a bigger pain in the ass.

[Ernst]

Collector. When I got out of jail no one wanted to hire me. I did collections for a few months until I found a real job. The pay was terrible and you split your time between harassing good people who had fallen on hard times and dealing with ghetto trash.

I volunteer for this when I had the time.

[kalspic]

first job was at a super market. i had to clean peoples shit up in the bathroom over a corse of 9months i found 3 pairs of turded up undies and one guy managed to get shit on the walls all over the floor and doors. it was a shitty job( pun intended)

[Renesis]

1-800 got junk 9 terrible dollars an hour for 14 hour shifts. You work in peoples hot attics or freezing cold basements. You have to crawl into the basement storage areas of law offices where the stairs going down are literally crumbling under your feet. You ever try to pull out a cast iron heater from Jesus Christs time? I'm 5'5 and at that time weighed maybe 130lbs.. sure I was strong for my size, but cast iron heaters and radiators? HELL NO was I not going to lift that crap. Best part if I was scheduled to work M T W TH F , but hit 40 hours before TH or F they made me take the rest of the week off so no overtime pay. I nearly killed myself taking down cubicles when they forgot to turn out the power to them and I grabbed a live outlet. Damn I'm mad now thinking about it again.

[Times Roman]

I'm surprised we are not hearing from former roofers.... in the hot sun all day, on your hands and knees

that is one rotten job!

OK fine, I did that when I was 15 on a couple houses. Carrying bundles of shingles up the ladder all day long. Hell it wasnt that bad though. Young, dumb, got a good tan, good workout and a little extra money.

Now bucking hay sucked especially early in the morning when it was still damp and weight an extra 40 lbs. It takes a while to learn how to grab those wires and throw it up on a truck.

One summer I unloaded semi trailers freezer cars full of frozen pork butt. It would take only 1 1/2 hrs of busting your butt and I would wear through 1 NEW pair of leather gloves with each trailer. Max I could do was 2 trailers in 1 day and usually needed help with the 2nd one. $150 a truck for 1 1/2 hrs was not bad money for an 18yr old in 1981 tax free but you would sweat and freeze all at the same time.

Worst job was when I cleaned equipment for a local gym..... did it for 2 days and quit. I cleaned the entire fvcking gym and the asshole manager came oer and asked why I wasn't cleaning..... I told him I got it all and he told me to doit all again...... said fvck you and left.

The next worst job was doing tree work. Toughest fvckin job i've had..... lugging heavy logs and chipping large branches. Back breaking work for sure! I was at this one job where the property owner had a backhoe and had to use it to bring some dead tree's and branches uphill to the chipper. This guy was impressed with the way I worked..... I was drenched from sweat and every vein was ripping outa my skin. The guy calls my boss and goes "where the fvck did you find this kid?" my boss says "Yea..... we put him back in the capsule till morning after he's done." bahaha

Worst job I ever had was owning a design firm in the middle of the worse economic crisis since the Great Depression.

Fish packing plant, gutting salmon, taking off the heads, ripping the guts out from the esophogus, standing up to your shins in salmon eggs, guts, blood, and tapeworms...

Seriously, you people wouldn't eat fish if you knew how it was processed, or what it looked like before gutting.

Lmao I did this too! I totally forgot about this. I went to a job interview where they wanted a "Floor Attendant" for a gym. I went there and went through the interview and got the job. Showed up and they wanted me to clean equipment. I cleaned 1 window and then quit. No joke, 1 window and I walked out.

Been fishing all my life, never seen tape worms in the fish

now as far as physically difficult, I worked at a saw mill for two years pulling lumber off the green chain (long side). Rollers were non mechanized. Only two of us on the long side.

I'm not sure how many of you would even know what the hell that is?

Just watch a couple episodes of the Waltons. LOL

I did. that was a puny saw mill. Ours was industrial size. when we were cutting 2x4's, I had to pull 16' and over.... literally hundreds would come down the chain at a time, and If you stopped the chain, you got fired.

we cut pine. eight quarter, so in the green, it was probably at least ten quarter. Random width. So here I'd be, pulling a piece of wet pine, couple of feet wide or more, 16 or more feet long, and anywhere between 2.5 and 3" thick. Just me. These boards would easily weigh 800 lbs or more. and when we cut pine, these were the boards I'd have to pull all day.

we had some big dude get hired to help me out on the green chain one time. claimed to be an ex 49'er. Never heard of the guy. But he was huge. Anyways, i put him in the back of the chain, behind me, to just pull my slash (trash). it was a normal night, but this dude wasn't pulling the slash quickly engough, and we had to keep stopping the chain. after two hours, on our break, this big boy just starts laughing, and says we are freaks. How the hell do we just stand there and pull lumber all goddam day? He said he was freaking whooped, and quit on the spot. In fact, after him, I went through about ten other guys until I found a guy strong enough and fast enough that could handle the job.

I've moved furniture, long haul and local

I've done alot of physically demanding jobs, even threw a little hay there for awhile, but nothing evan came remotely close to the two years I spent pulling lumber on the green chain.

Bro dont misunderstand me, I was just stating I had never seen any, not that there wasnt any. I have heard many stories of worms infesting fish.

No sweat bro; just showing how prevalent it is in salmon. My experience with that fish is why I'll never eat it again.
