I used to make tea, no not cups of it, but where they actually produce it. Every year for 6 years I would say 'I'm not staying here another year'. You wouldn't believe the places where tea dust and tea leaves can end up, I had to clean places on my body that I didn't even know existed LOL, I finally got off my backside and found something else......the money was good tho LOL.

I worked for an Indian psychiatrist for a short time, and I hated it. He was an egotistical little blowhard. He worked at the hospital, but he wanted to start a private office, too, so he hired me. I started out creating files for patients. He spent most of his time at the hospital, but would blow in once in awhile to give me an oration about something. He wouldn't let me keep the office door open. He wouldn't let me leave the office at all except for a restroom break, he wouldn't let me make friends with the other girls who worked in the clinic in the same building. There was nothing to do. I brought a small TV and spent the whole day watching TV and trying to keep my feet warm. I was glad when he felt he had "lost face" in the community and discontinued his practice.

I was not cut out for day care. So with all those 3 and 4 year olds running around, I about went nuts. I did not have the patience or calling for that job and quit it after the term.

Working for a lawyer's office, although I am very much thankful I work there for experience, my complain is that I never really have real work there, most of the time, we would just be sitting with nothing to do.

I worked one summer detasseling corn. It was the most miserable experience of my life. I was covered with bug bites, blisters, sunburn and a rash the entire time. I would turn to crime for money before I would do that again.

The worst job I ever had was when I was fourteen I used to catch chickens. You would have to run around a barn in the middle of the night with hundreds of chicken running around and try to catch four of them at a time and shove them in a little crate. Boy was I glad when that summer job ended. lol

I was working once for a foreign guy. He had a marketing company on the internet. He was the kind of boss that was ruling by "divide et impera" (divide and rule), doing all kind of things and saying all kind of bad things to just not let us become friends. You can imagine how was the work environment. And also he was never in time with the payments: salaries, rent, expenses.... It was a mass. After almost 2 years I quit. I couldn't stand him and his business anymore.

I did telemarketing too and I agreed, I don't like them either. That would have to be the worse job I ever had in my lifetime.

i used to work for a guy who sent me door to door collecting donations for multiple things and i made 30 dollars everytime i collected 100 dollars i didn't like it because i felt that the person's donation was not going where they thought. plus there was this other girl doing it too, and she stole peoples mail and anything that was sitting on their doorstep i told the boss and he told me that i was lying so i quit. he forced us to do this for 6 hours a day no matter what the weather was like!

The worse job I've ever had is being a waitress. I totally hated it! It takes a special person to do that job and it's definitely not a job for me.

Well, I tried to work as a home health aid once, and it could have been a wonderful job except I wasn't trained at all for it, and had no idea what I was in for. On my first day, I was dropped off to spend 2 days and 3 nights with an older lady, whom I was told right before I arrived and no sooner, suffered both Alzheimer's, and Dymentia. I was told she had recently fallen and damaged a hip, so she wasn't supposed to walk around, but she doesn't remember and she had been a busy homebody her whole life, so I had to somehow control her from moving around and doing housework. The old lady wasa sweetheart, although the job proved quite difficult and I shouldn't have been doing it, I wasn't qualified. The diseases progressed quickly, and within 2 weeks she refused to take her medication, thinking I was trying to kill her... and as a reaction it worsened quicker and quicker. She figured out how to get outside, despite the childproof doorhandle covers, and in the middle of July she ran down the street, wearing winter clothes over winter pajamas (she dressed herself before her escape) screaming for help, that I was trying to kill her! It hutr to see someone sufer the way she did, and htis job is one I will never forget!
