Pad Patter: 3/25 - Worst Job?

I actually enjoyed working fast food after high school LOL! I was just a people person and I always worked the drive thru but probably the worst job I ever had was working a summer pulling tobacco...I was probably 11-12 and a friend of my mom's had a tobacco farm and was always looking for just summer help, so she said I could do it...thought it would be some easy money and of coarse I was 11-12!!! Little did I know I would have to be up before sunbreak so we could beat the heat and not only did we pull it, we strung it and hung it in the barn to dry....hardest working summer I ever had!~I was born and raised in VA so it was definetley tobacco country!

 

Working retail at Christmas time and Back to School time

 

I worked at McDonald's for years, and I actually really liked it. I loved the pace, the people...but once I got into upper management, it was horrible. Very little pay for the extra hours they expected of you. I was on salary, but working 12-14 hours a day. I was literally exhausted when I went home, physically and mentally, because there was just no end to the amount of work piled on me day after day, with no actual time allotted to do it (being scheduled on the floor working instead of in the office doing the admin work). It just got so stressful, I got so resentful, because I actually loved my job, but I couldn't deal with that crap any more!

 

Telemarketing for MCI. It was just a mind-suck and I was awful at it. Thank God no bodily fluids were involved!
