Years ago my ex-husband and I used to do part time cleaning work at night (this was in the late 1980's). We cleaned 2 banks. We had to do it 5 times a week (Mon thru Thurs and then once over the weekend). Oh how I hated that job! It's kinda gross to clean toilets that aren't yours, LOL. So what was the worst job you ever had?

I have almost always had crapy min wage jobs.. lol. I dont think i've ever had a job that i liked other then what i do now. I babysit and i get to be around my daughter all day as well. Sometimes i clean and stuff, but if i just wanna sit around paly with the kids, use the computer, watch tv, anything really goes as long as i make sure the ruggie rats are well taken care of! Some of the jobs in cronalogical order that i've had are: KFC, pizza cook in a few different shops, coffee shop service person, retail in a novelty shop, Grocery store cleaner, Cold deli meats at grocery store, Cashier at grocery store, Another pizza shop, Factory grunt at PPG, prepping glass for installation in cars, Factory grunt at Seeburn, hanging metal on a line to be painted. *OOOG boring!, Cashier at zellers, (canadian version of target) and NOW BABYSITTER!! and MOTHER, and WIFE, and MAID, and .. you know all the rest of the things that go along with being a stay at home mama!

Wow sissygrl, you sure have had a lot of jobs. None of them sound like terrible jobs, maybe just boring, etc. Glad you're liking what you do now!

I suppose it would be the job I had in highschool during my junior year. I worked at a small, locally-owned hotdog joint. It was about the size of a McDonalds and specialized in hotdogs, but did serve other fast-food items as well. I can remember coming home with my hair smelling like hot grease from the french friers, my hands smelling like onions, and the smells permenantly embedded into my uniform. No amount of washing would get the smells out of those clothes! It was years before I could eat a hotdog after working there!

UGH, I never thought about coming home and smelling like fry grease. Yuck, that must have been a little gross!
