Everyone needs to work a shit job at some point so they understand what other people are going through when they're working a shit job.

I was working seasonal, that got to close 4 times a week by myself, and our cart pushing machine broke 2 weeks before Christmas. They probably didn't keep me on cause I had a pretty bad attitude due to the whole "being expected to work the busiest time of the year by myself while the machine was broken"Originally Posted by whitefox
Fun times.
Yea, I'm still waiting for that prime swampland in Florida you said you were going to sell me.Originally Posted by Butane
I spent about 10 years on the phones in call centers...hated every min. People get even more ignorant when there are no repurcussions for their actions. They can be shitty and then just hang up and its over for them.
Then i moved into call center managment. On top of the horrid task of manaing entry level morons that dont know their head from their ass, taking escalation call after escalation call is the frosting on the cake. The reps on the phone get to the piss them off and then hand it to me the listen to the customer yell for an hour...ugh. And it is a banking call center, so they have plenty to yell about.
Now I am relaxed in a project manager role which basically means I drink coffee and troll online forums all day...yay.
Worst job I ever had was working day labor tickets mid winter in Buffalo. Get in line outside the building by 4:30 and wait till they open at 6:30. You get tickets based on order you were in line....minimum wage. Generally srat a ticket around 8:30-9, get back around 5:30-6...so 14 investment for 8 hrs of crap pay...lol. Glad those days are over...
I worked in gamestation for 3 years >.<GOD>.< going into management @ krispy kreme soon so hopefully donuts + coffee will prevail ^^
