Yeah I’d have to say that’s one of my worse jobs too…though i am still working there
At least you lasted 10 minutes. I quit KMart my first time before I even started :rofl.
I was just turning 16 and it was gonna be my first job. 2 days before I was too start, my highschool offered me an IT job doing basic PC work. Obviously, that’s better for my career so I quit KMart the day before I was going to start.
3 years later, they still hired me to unload trucks that’s how bad the situation was at KMart in Glenmont. Needless to say, it is now Tractor Supply lol.
:rofl
Vertical stump splitting in the middle of a field.
Precast concrete prebatch mixer.
Two jobs that will have you considering education as a better option to
a broken back and concrete-particulate filled lungs
Working for the Lia’s Property Managment(Working in their actual houses) Fucking rich people make me sick. “My TV doesnt sound right when it slides out of the ceiling.” Give me a fucking break
The worst job was the best job for me. Alpin Haus when I was young. I was a lot monkey, so we cleaned rv, moved shit around the lots/locations and did what ever else needed to be done, deliveries, loading unloading new units. It sucked becasue we got the crappy jobs, crawling under used units and painting the frames, cleaning out used units coming in on trade, cleaning out the rental RV’s. Lots of nasty shit. Found rubbers, drugs, cloths, lots of dumb shit left behind. But it was also a blast, powerwashing rvs in the summer, shorts no shirt, goofing off, having fun with friends, chicks with their parents looking at rv come to hang out/check out he inside of $400k+ rv’s. I have sooo many stories from that place its nutty.
didnt get paid too well, but it was a fucking blast at times to be there, other times it was hell and really crappy.
I worked at a carboard making company called Norampac in Corps Park in Scotia, with all the machines it ws about 150 degrees at all times, werent allowed to leave AT ALL, and no cafeteria had to bring your own lunch, and on top of the sweating, you would be covered in sawdust all day. Oh…and we were working 7-7 Monday thru Friday, sometimes Saturday with no breaks or lunches.
But it was also a blast, powerwashing rvs in the summer, shorts no shirt, goofing off, having fun with friends,
Sounds like a sweet time in
THE DANGER ZONE
:rofl
Yeah now that i reread that it did sound a little gay.
Twas a good time though. Many new class A units were “broken in” while I worked there, not in a gay way.
Stewart’s. Oh my God. I thought of new and inventive ways to off myself every shift.
Broadway lunch in Schenectady as a waitress. The pay sucked, and there was a ton of drama. The cook there was married, his wife about to have a kid…and was sleeping with my co-worker almost every night in the stock room LOL. Also, both the cook/dishwasher both tried to corner me in the stockroom and make advances toward me(I was 15/16 at the time, they were early 30’s). They even followed me out to my car one night and wouldn’t let me leave. NOT COOL.
You mean a demo-saw? Probably one of the sickest power tools on the planet. I wouldnt complain about getting to play with one of them :lol
My worst job?..:ponder
Probably working for safelite. Worked in their warehouse for about six months. Loading/unloading trucks, stocking warehouse shelves, making deliveries, and occasionaly throwing a window in some p.o.s. that the techs wouldnt do. Leaving every day with a nose FULL of dirt, dust, cardboard particles. Cuts on my arms and hands, either sweating like crazy when its warm out or freezing when it was cold, with a 15 minute lunch break, all for $10 an hour.
Ive been lucky otherwise, and have been able to work mostly easy jobs or doing things i enjoy. Ive been working Construction for the family business for years on+off, always loved it. Worked at Planet Fitness, doing NOTHING as well as becoming very close with the owner and regional manager and getting to do pretty much w/e i wanted from the time i was 15-18. My current jobs work out well. Decent pay along with paid benefits, garunteed hours and overtime whenever i want it.
Just to add to the discussion
America Worst Jobs
If you think your job is bad, think twice… unless you’ve got one of the “worst” jobs in America today. It isn’t much of a surprise that many of these low-rated jobs overlap with the most dangerous jobs. What’s more, none have an annual salary above $40,000. JobsRated.com has released a comprehensive ranking of the worst occupations, based upon several key criteria, including salary, stress and physical demand. What are the ten worst jobs in the country?
10. Iron Worker
This job requires you to work with hot metal, usually at great heights and for little reward. The Bureau of Labor Statistics lists the median hourly income of Iron Workers below $20. Work can be irregular at times, because of bad weather, the short-term nature of construction jobs and economic downturns. Beware: This job category has the fourth-highest fatality rate in the country, at 61.0 deaths per 100,000 workers.
9. Roustabout
If you’re not sure what a Roustabout is, you’re probably not alone. A relatively specialized field, roustabouts perform maintenance on oil rigs and pipelines, using hand and power tools. The BLS expects the demand for roustabouts to decline slowly over the next decade. Median Salary: $29,000
8. Welder
The job of a welder involves melting metal joints together, usually behind a protective mask and visor to prevent serious injury. The BLS says only the top 10 percent of welders earn above $22.50 an hour.
7. Garbage Collector
No need to describe this one. Although wages vary significantly based upon experience and responsibilities, the BLS lists median hourly earnings at just $13.93. Garbage collectors also rank as the sixth deadliest job in America, with a fatality rate of 41.8 per 100,000 jobs.
6. Roofer
The BLS reports that most job openings in this field “arise from the need to replace those who leave the occupation because the work is hot, strenuous, and dirty, causing many people to switch to jobs in other construction trades.” With a median hourly wage of $15.51, being a high-flying roofer is still near the bottom of the barrel.
5. Emergency Medical Technician
People’s lives often depend on EMTs and other first responders, so they’re on-call 24 hours a day, which tends to result in quite irregular hours. Although wages vary by region, median annual pay is $27,070, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics.
4. Seaman
A broad category, it includes boat workers and fishermen, who tend to spend long periods of time at sea in cramped circumstances and poor weather conditions. Fishermen also have the deadliest job in the country, with a 141.7 fatality rate per 100,000. Not the kind of odds most people would take for a median salary of $34,000 per year.
3. Taxi Driver
Although many taxi drivers and chauffeurs have extremely flexible schedules and generally work unsupervised, the job still ranks near the bottom. The BLS estimates there are approximately 229,000 jobs of this nature in the country. Although wages vary greatly based on location, type of company and amount of tips, the median hourly wage is $10.62.
2. Dairy Farmer
Raising cattle for milk production entails strenuous labor, long hours and poor working conditions, Various government estimates put net income at just over $15,000 a year. Wages do not include government subsidies and can vary with fluctuations in commodity prices and market demand.
1. Lumberjack
]
That’s right, being a Lumberjack is the worst job in America, based upon the study by JobsRated.com. These workers spend all their time outdoors, in poor weather, and often in isolated areas. It’s also the third most deadly occupation with a fatality rate of 82.1 per 100,000 jobs per year. Long hours, a high -stress environment, strenuous work and low pay - often starting at minimum wage, with a median hourly wage at $13.80 - all contribute to make this the #1 worst job in the country.
