I thought it would be kind of fun for us to post the worst job we ever had in our life.
I will start #1 worst job ever
I worked on a pig farm as a farm hand when I was a teenager. My duties included cleaning pens (by hand with a shovel) Feeding the pigs and running the stable cleaner 2 times a day. If you have ever been around a pig farm you know it stinks but when you work with pig crap for hours daily the odor seems to absorb into your skin and especially your hair. It took weeks after I quit to totally get rid of the smell....
Needless to say IT WAS A SH*TTY JOB!

I think (After careful review of the jobs I have had) being a nurses aid in a retirement /nursing home was the worst. Especially when holidays would come, many had familes, few were visited and if they were, it was only for 30-45 min then gone. It was very depressing. Also, to see what was once vibrant people reduce to shadows of their former selves, lost in their own worlds.

How very upsetting Genenco. My worst job was working on a fish stall as a teenager. The fish were still live when the fisherman brought them to the stall. I lasted just a few hours and one hour of that was waiting for the owner to come and let me go as I had quit. blue

My worst job definitely was the one I had in my first year of college, I was a waiter at a rather popular restaurant. The money was good but the amount of work was next to unbearable (the shift was starting at 10 am and the end was around 6-7 am the next morning, then a day off and then the same drill all over again).

working in a nursing home the patients were great but the staff was horrible i felt i was doing everyone elses job from changing pampers to brushing hair.We actually had an opera singer there that would sing the sweetest songs.She woud say come here baby do u want granny to sing to u and i would always say yes.I often wondered why the other staff didnt realize that one day if god is willing they would get old 2 and need someone to take care of them.Would they like someone like themselves to do the job?
