What’s the worst job

idk but doing it with ur mom gotta be the easiest


































¡¡¡WRECKD!!!

Picking large lava rock out of farm fields. For part of a summer(age 13)I would walk up and down fields after some ground work had been done manually lifting large rocks up onto a flatbed trailer and piling them up out of the way. For the super big rocks we would use the frontend loader. Got paid $6/hr, back in the early 90's. Wasnt super horrible but was pretty physically demanding.

Night Hotel Portier... working through the whole night and "missing out" on sunny summer days was honestly whack af.

I worked at a Fleet Farm back in high school. That place absolutely blows chunks.

I worked at a UPS warehouse sorting packages. Basically just standing in one spot sorting boxes into color coded bins from 12am-9am. UPS jobs can actually turn into a really well paying career but that shit was not for me. I quit after about 6 weeks.

I worked at Taco Bell for one summer during high school. Went through 3 general managers in that time and haven't had Taco Bell since.

Anywhere with a shitty boss. I've had the same job at two establishments and my superiors made the experience night and day.

I have also been a "guide" at a botanical garden where I would explain the map to all entering visitors and pretty much repeat the same 30-second speech about 800 times a day. My mouth would hurt by the end of the day.

When I grad from highschool my mom says your either getting a job or joining the army, either way your not live here so I hot a job installing insulation, it wasn't bad, got fiberglass in my cornea wuch sucked but started insulation crawl spaces after work fir more $, the worst was when they dumped the extra concrete in there, it wasn't smooth, it was a torture chamber, absolute nightmare .
Another some rich people in Medina I'd done work for before wanted me to check a leak in their crawl space day before Thanksgiving, anyway I fixed it but was on my stomach in the river of cold water/mud and everything I had to cut out and replace was on front, arms extended, led to a ton of remodeling do it was all good.
Another I put a sewer ejection system in my basement ti turn onto an apartment but every year or two it would go out and need replacing, basically a shit caked unit @MiIfHunter, and would be dry heavingheaving uncontrollably the whole time ..
Do many more shit jobs to mention.

A Ns moderator under the eheath regime

Picking dead seals off the beach kinda sucked

I did construction of industrial sorting/palleting machines. Schlepping steel all day in a 110 degree factory and constantly having to half-assed 'fix' other people's fuckups during mandated OT wasn't the best time in the world. Worst part was when I got accepted into an engineering program at school and gave them my 2 weeks, the next day they told me there's no more work for me. Dishonorable assholes. Should have just no-called-no-showed instead of doing things right.

i’ve never worked it but a few of my buddy’s have, i’d say tying rebar is definitely one of the worsts

I haven't done it but chicken catcher has to be one of the worst. Surrounded by hundreds of thousands of chickens in a giant plastic barn dealing with infernal heat and choking dust from the chicken feed and shit, working as fast as humanly possible to load the chickens on a truck.

these are all reason why you guys should think about selling weed give it a try

All the retail jobs I worked checked every horrifying box that exists. Shitty pay, shitty people, shitty bosses, shitty schedules. Fuck that noise.

Front desks suck. I still get nightmares from the ivy league college ski weeks and having to check those fucking turds in at like 2am.

Dishpits suck

Working at dog kennels. Im not really phased by awful dog shits though anymore.

Jemsthese are all reason why you guys should think about selling weed give it a try

I sold weed in a pot store and that job was terrible. Everyone i worked with was just 420% stoned all the time and it was basically working with a bunch of zombies. Also no one bought weed from the store because it was government run and everyone got better shit from their buddies.

working in active sewer jumps to mind. Got paid quite well mind you. not as bad as working with full blown alcoholics, having to babysit grown ass men when I was 18 was a bit fucked up, learned a lot of lessons and all that shit but it was way too much stress.

I sucked cock

I've done several crappy jobs but the absolute winner is cleaning hotel rooms for a summer while I was in college for $8 hr ..Nothing like opening up a room and finding the bed full of diarrhea 🤢. Also found a blow up doll in a closet and many used condoms in the drawer in the night stand.
I also worked at a dog kennel while I was in high school. Lots and lots of Poo.
The job that wasn't the worst but I hated the most and worked the shortest amount of time was working in the deburring room at a machine shop. I sat for 10 hours a day in a dungeon hunched over a desk with boxes and boxes of parts trimming imperfections off of freshly machined parts. Why the machinists couldn't deburr their own damn parts was beyond me. I knew it was a bad job when my back locked up on me from sitting so much and also totalled my truck at 5 am on the way to that job. I hated that place.

MiIfHunterI sucked cock

Did you get any tips?

ElcheapoDid you get any tips?

His cumshot

I spent a year in college working as a tire tech for Discount Tire. Hardest job I ever had. Changing wheels and tires all day, every day was exhausting, soul-crushing, and all kinds of filthy. All for a cool $9/hr.

Off-road and truck tires+wheels can easily weigh 50-100lbs. Slinging those around the shop, onto and off of vehicles, tire changers, and balancers was backbreaking. Holding those wheels in place while you installed lugnuts sucked ass. And then you had to torque down those wheels by hand. An F-350 dually has 40 lugnuts total at 160 ft-lbs each. That's a bitch for those who've never torqued one. Also, one of my coworkers lowered the full weight of a Chevy Silverado 2500 onto my foot by accident once. We don't wear steel toes. Hooray for workers comp.

Our manager wouldn't let us clock in before we opened, despite being required to show up early to turn on the compressors and get things ready for the day. We were heavily pressured to take short lunches because we were understaffed. If you took a full lunch, the queue would get further behind and we'd be forced to stay late. I also began gaining responsibilities of shop leads without the accompanying pay increases.

Tires are disgusting too. Place your palm on your tire and look at all the nasty shit that sticks to your hand. After each shift I was covered in nasty black tire grime. It was all over my arms, my face, my hair. I wore Dickies work pants, and the tire grime would find its way through that fabric and it would get stuck in the pores of my legs. No matter what I tried, it never came out for as long as I worked there. Nasty.

The weather was awful too. In the summer it was so hot. The bay doors were always open and hot cars are a pain to work on. In the winter, it was just as bad. Cars would pull up covered in snow. As you'd work, the snow would slowly start melting and it would fall off as you were putting the wheels back on, covering you in freezing, wet, nasty road snow.

All that being said, I loved my coworkers. They made that job worth coming into each day. I lost a ton of weight and got pretty strong doing all that manual labor. I saw all kinds of fucked up car shit and have some good stories from it. Some customers would leave good tips and I got to drive some cool cars into the shop (like a Lamborghini Aventador SV). Apart from my manager, I truly think Discount Tire is a great company and I still take my vehicles there years later. But it's a shit job.

I was kinda wondering. I have a good friend from hs who climbed the discount tire ladder and I think he's doing pretty good for himself now all things considered, and the customer service is always great when I go so it couldn't have been THAT shitty. But no doubt still hard, dirty labor in the elements that doesn't really pay worth a damn.

Did two and a half weeks of concrete crew last summer and that was pretty bad, but the crew was good.

Worked construction landscaping the summer before that for a sloppily managed company whose owner was a douche but it was okay as long as he wasn’t around. Customer facing positions with horrible managers on the other hand crushed my soul and made me think really dark thoughts. Those jobs are basically torture if you ask me.

Got sent to help one of the plumbers at the shit plant once

Scheduled for 2 weeks and I lasted 2 days LOL

People tip at discount tire? whaat

CLQPeople tip at discount tire? whaat

It didn't happen often and the techs don't expect it. There's zero pressure to tip if you're a customer.

But, Discount will give free air checks if you just drive up to a bay. It was pretty common for people to tip a couple bucks for an air check. I'd also get the occasional tip if I did a favor for a customer.

If you have spare cash and really want to win over some shop guys, buy them a couple pizzas. You'll be an absolute hero.

BiffbarfI was kinda wondering.

But no doubt still hard, dirty labor in the elements that doesn't really pay worth a damn.

The ladder was a cool part of the company. I was only there a year and it was just a part-time thing for me, so I never expected to move up. But it's normal for people to climb from techs to managers in a few years. Discount only hires from within and the money gets good pretty quickly.

My manager used to give me a hard time for going to engineering school because he said in 4 years at DT, I could be earning entry-level engineering money. By the time you become a store manager a few years after that, 6 figures is pretty common. It's a great gig. Made me realize that trades are no-joke and it gave me a huge appreciation for jobs like that.

Who the fuck cares? It’s not all about the money.

Aren’t u a plumber?

Dishwasher in Israel on a Kibbutz. I was paid for the summer in room, food, and about 100 shekels a month(30 bucks). You learn a lot about yourself working dishwashing. I hated the smell, and fortunately they let me where some thick gloves since the water was a little hotter than too hot to touch. I learned a lot about myself though. I learned I could work hard as hell when it came down to it. It was a big trianglular conveyor belt dishwasher and from 8 AM to 4 PM(or until lunch was cleaned up after) I was running the dishwasher show. I wore big headphones blasting Immortal Technique, Eminem, Joey Badass, and many others. Usually the temperature in that room was 90 degrees and steamy. Not only did you have to clean the dishes, you were cleaning kitchen pan trays covered in fish grease from the fridge, all kinds of other gunk, and other things that smelled godawful. Because of Kashrut laws, I had to clean the entire machine too, which meant stepping inside of the 8 foot metal cylinder that was the washer drum. That metal was usually between 140-150 degrees, so you couldn't keep your skin on it too long, and you had to scrub it clean. After a month and a half of hard work on that job, the kitchen staff said they wanted me to come work in the kitchen since it was clear I knew how to work. Working in a clean, air conditioned kitchen was heaven compared to that. I appreciate that job though, since it made me realize any job stateside was better than that.

Oh no! A post that was made on this site before? I've never heard of that? All the posts and threads on this site are unique and special! No one has ever done that before!

Anything related to food can be pretty gross sometimes. I worked in a kitchen for a year and got rashes on my arms from being covered in food grime all day. Food attracts animals and insects. If you work in a busy kitchen like I did, nobody has time to clean shit ever so it just piles up and goes rancid; we worked with a lot of milk based ingredients so the whole place smelled like sour milk.

If you have a restaurant you like, never go in it's kitchen.

Dishwashing

Idk personally but it seems like being a NS mod seems like a pretty pointless, needless job

I only made it like four days working at Chuck E Cheese as a teenager lmao.

backcountry warehouse

I'd hate to be the one who goes in the sewers, be like working in the colon of society

I work at McDonald’s and am not a fan of it when it gets busy it can get pretty stressful and the managers r dicks

Heres my worst jobs I've ever had...

Worst job ever: worked in a bucket factory for a summer. Literally made me want to not quit school. Buckets come down the line. You cut the nub on the bottom, do a quick inspection and snap a handle on the bucket. A bucket goes down each line every 10-20 seconds (can't remember exactly). And the lines were a dead end so if you got backed up bad enough buckets would jam in the machine and they'd have to stop everything. Rarely happened but stressful to avoid. Then we did food buckets for pickles and they had to be literally perfect. And they were short staffed that summer most days so fuck it, they gave me two lines to do, so I was assembling a new bucket every 5-10 seconds for 8 hrs straight in a warehouse that was easily 100F. Paid $9/hr. Steel mills are 100x worse per my barber but this experience was the pitts. All my coworkers had purple hair and go-phones if that gives you a sense. Only cool thing was they didn't care if we took buckets home; when you change colors it makes a super cool swirl effect. They eventually caught on and didn't allow that after they realized they could sell those too.

Second worst job: Phantom Fireworks. My hometown is the headquarters of this and we have the 2nd busiest store at least when I worked there. The owners are cheap as cheap can be. It was all high school and college kids that worked here so we had a good time. Most of the cashiers were smokeshows too. But working in the warehouse was a bitch and a half. The week of 4th of July was insane. We would get a semi full of fireworks every hour or less (maybe 20 pallets worth?) and had to empty it, unbox everything, then restack on the pallet, and rewrap or stack on the warehouse shelves all day long. We made so many osha violations it's not even funny. Ever seen someone get inside a baler machine? Or have their arms inside while it's operating? Lol I have just about every day I worked. I can't even count how many times we jumped across aisles between shelving or stood on top of 15-20ft piles of repeaters to stack them as high as the fire code would allow (well actually the fire code was probably violated every day except when the fire marshall visited which of course we were given a heads up for the "surprise visit"). I could talk all day about the violations that were allowed/encouraged and known about with both workplace safety and damaged products.
I made minimum wage and we got $0.10 raises each year we returned. I worked there 3yrs in a row and then took a summer off. When I went back the year after they started me off right back at minimum wage again. Fuckers. We had to wear phantom shirts which naturally they took out of our first paycheck. The owners were always at our store so we had to basically make work if there was none or we would be sent home. When the week of the fourth hit, they would literally bus in people from the ghetto warehouse to supplement work and prevent us from getting too much overtime. God forbid we make $10.50/hr for a few hours. I worked an 18hr+ shift pretty much every 3rd of July delirious as fuck by the end. We saw so much volume I had nearly every product number memorized. They took out money for our lunches regardless if we took a lunch or not. All of this was so ridiculous cuz most of us were aware of the insane markups of products and how much money they were making. I saw the margins on paper once- oof. One July 3rd, the store pulled in over $1mil. They own the entire supply chain from China factories to the shelves so their costs were as low as possible. Only perk was we got 60% off which even then they were still making astronomical profits. Your buy one get one free coupon is garbo. This business is literally the definition of cheap tactics. People complain about medical bills or pharmaceutical markups but don't think twice about dropping 3 months worth of income on fireworks (not kidding). Nobody pays better than a redneck looking for fireweeerks and dem m80s (illegal btw). Fuck I remember when I got injured and the assistant manager tried to persuade me not to file workman's comp- I'm like 19 so how tf would I know anything about that. I guess another perk is they have everyone over to their house every year for a party and we all got drunk af and watched them light off $50-100k worth of fireworks like it's nothing. Basically a 30min nonstop finale. Really eye opening experience to work and see corporate greed first hand. Even their corporate office positions are shitty for salaries and benefits. I could go on all day about that place but I still know too many people connected to it and should probably just keep my mouth shut lol. This summary is a fraction of the shit I saw/dealt with.

Tldr: never work in a factory or warehouse. If you want any deets on fireworks ama but they're a rip off. It's basically like any other multi-billion dollar industry that relies on temporary workers they don't owe benefits to.

Damn they sound like some really shitty people, sorry for your experience with them, glad I don’t buy their fireworks, ours come from zambelli, used to set off our country clubs fireworks when I was on the board, fuckin blast
