ST Poll: ugh I very much dislike my job. a lot. What was the worst job you've ever had?

Posted by Hotkiss (aka hotkiss7348) Jul 2 '09, 08:36

can't say this is my *worst*.

I hated giving campus tours. It was always shitty weather and annoying parents.

Second may have been serving at a steakhouse but I think I learned too much from that job to look poorly on the experience.

Normally I'd say "the previous one", but technically, it was a long time ago - dishwashing and pizza delivery. - Beryllium Jul 2, 08:39 5
- I've always wanted to deliver pizza, heard it's amazing tips (on a college campus) -- nm - Hotkiss Jul 2, 08:44 3
  - Actually, generally speaking, college students are pretty mediocre tippers. -- nm - Don Homer Jul 2, 08:48 2
    - Not so at Indiana U. If you delivered fast they tipped quite well. Plus, you would get regulars. -- nm - Spawn Jul 2, 08:53
    - I think my friend said what he lacks in actual dollars per order he makes up for in quantity of orders -- nm - Hotkiss Jul 2, 08:52
