Reply #6: Many sucked in their own way [View All]

[Nikia]

My first job was delievering papers, which wouldn't have been that bad except it was in a bad neighborhood. I feared for my safety on weekends (It was afternoon delivery during the week), got service errors when someone stole the neighbor's paper, and had trouble collecting from about half my customers. My job at the grocery store sucked because they schedulaed me for 5.75 hours so I'd be ineligible for a half hour break. My job at as a candy grinder (for blizzrds and flurries) sucked because it involved temperature extremes and unsafe working conditions (flying chocolate and slippery chocolate floors). My job at the plastics factory sucked because it involved bad hours, rotating Thursday and Friday shifts and 7pm to 7am weekends. My order pulling job sucked because I worked with slackers who tricked me into doing more of their work and made fun of me for working hard. My fast food job sucked because some customers are truly abusive for reasons out of the worker's control. My temp lab job sucked because they bombarded me with information the first day as far as doing all of their lab tests and were mean to me when I asked a couple of questions the next day because I forgot some details (I was shown many lab (some unique to the company) tests once with no written instructions and expected to do them all the next day on my own.). My current job sucks because there is just no way that I can win (I think that is a good summary). Take your pick. Sorry about the rant. I have not had a satisfying career. I hope it gets better as I am only 25.
My best job was filing documents. It is too bad that pays poorly.
