loading and unloading truckloads cement blocks in the middle of summer. not the small ones, either. i didn't mind the heavy/constant lifting as much as i should've, hell i still do something close to it now. doing it in fucking 90 degree or hotter weather though is completely unbearable.


That sucks. I used to be a loader with Lowe's, currently overnight shift receiving...I remember doing 30 bags of 80 lb concrete in 30 mins and fucking my back up..it's still fucked up.

unloading 500 bales of hay and bringing them up to the top floor of a barn and having to stack them neatly up to the top of the roof to preserve floor space.

Bale of hale: scracthy as fuck, twice the size of my chest area, prolly 60 lbs each. Hold them by two tiny lines of twine, which after carrying about 100 of the 500 you gotta do start to dig into your hands and cut you.

Did i mention that the hay gives you a rash/super fucking irritated skin? And since it falls everywhere despite being wrapped up tighter than a good catholic girl, it covers the floor of the massive fucking trailer so that its slippery as fuck.

Its also dark in there, no windows so the hay doesnt fly everywhere, longer than a semi trailer. So you're walking carrying 60 lbs that are digging into your hands, every inch of your arms and wherever else that hay got burns like poison ivy, your feet fucking slip because some idiot spit shined the floor and didnt put in a single fucking window. Then you go up a flight of stairs, still holding it and then climb on the other bales of hay up there so you can get the one you're carrying to the very fucking top of the pile so it looks neat and tidy. And if you're lucky enough to get a mouldy bale, smells awful.

Did i say there were 500 bales of hay?


I am THE man.

That's not too bad. I'm used to doing that at home.

those and the 70 pound bags of sand are always such a joy when the truck pulls up. can instantly turn a group of guys who are having a somewhat enjoyable day into the most hateful people ever

my new place isn't that bad though. we don't have as many of those days, and even when we do, the warehouse area has those gigantic fans all over the place, so it's always pretty cool.

I work at UPS and do this all day. :) Were you unloading box car trucks or actual semi trailers? Hogs? Got my trusty 1 gallon water 'bottle' with me during the summer.

unloading trucks full of frozen meat weighing approximately 25 kilos each sucks, especially in winter

working in a veterinary hospital has good and bad sides to it, as well


If it's true that our species is alone in the universe, then I'd have to say the universe aimed rather low and settled for very little.

I've only worked in kitchens, so I've always had a job I've loved.

Except for dishwashing, that was pretty gay.

Thanks for reading my post.

Best Buy computer sales. You want to sell the customer a good computer but he company wants you to push some giant box of shit because the vendor give a kickback. Plus you have 37 different options of extended warranties and the one that you believe to be best is not the one that the company wants you to sell. And oh by the way, they change the sales plan and product layout pretty much weekly. You may not literally be, but you feel like you are knee deep in shit all day. I am so glad I left that place when I did.


Best Buy pisses me off. I'm NEVER buying another computer from them. They try to sell you computers that have been "cleaned up" by the Geek Squad, and it's a goddamn ripoff. All they do is remove a few programs that start up, which you can do by yourself (with decrapify or an equivalent program). Then...this Geek Squad guy tells me "oh yea, well this also comes with added security programs blah blah)...so I buy into it and i'm like...well yea i need some antivirus software. I spend an extra $150 bucks on the laptop to get some shitty security software that expires after 2 months.

Fuck Best Buy.

When I worked at the college bookstore we'd 'rash bomb' guys that were blatantly hitting on the coeds.

Dude would be helping.
SOmeone would walk by, and say "Hey, hows that rash?"

I spent a winter collecting sap to make maple syrup. Easily the worst job I've had. 40 gallons of sap to make one gallon of syrup. Some sap is drawn out of the trees via plastic tubing and nozzles and empties into a 500 gallon container, but most of what we harvested was from buckets, hundred and hundreds of buckets that were hanging from trees. Buckets on hillsides, buckets in ravines, buckets buckets everywhere. And snow, because it is western mass, and it does snow.

Worst trip for that ever was further up north after a big snow storm into one of our syrup grove things. Close to two miles of our plastic tubing from trees was buried under an Ice/Snow/Ice mix (you know what I'm talking about if you're from here), we had picks and chain saws to chip away the ice and cut the many fallen branches out of the way, and it was sub 25 degrees.
