06.05.12 | Lucky, I use to have an awesome job that paid decent and I worked with some awesome people but I fucked it up. Now I stock shelves at a pet store at 5am for shit money. |

06.05.12 | Ya, a job would be nice. I was actually stood up for a job interview earlier today. |

06.05.12 | Jobs are overrated. I think I'd rather be unemployed but I need some form of income unfortunately so i'm stuck with this for now. |
PostModernJellyfish
06.05.12 | I work in retail. My managers are mostly cool, but some of my co-workers would be more useful if they were in a coma. And I hate all the customers, save a few of the regulars. |
KSK1
06.05.12 | That's pretty sweet foxxxy. So you're like a dispatcher? I'd love to do something like that I don't know how I feel about the overnight though. |
KSK1
06.05.12 | @Post, yeah my last job was as a retail manager and believe me when I say I can relate to everything you just said lol. |

06.05.12 | Hell yeah, Mainline is the jam, I forgot to add those guys. |
KSK1
06.05.12 | Mainline was one of the ones I stole from someone else a while back lol. Might have been you I don't remember but I'll give you the credit. |
Eclecticist
06.05.12 | There is something rather unsettling about the fact that a large portion of the users in this thread do not have a job. |
KSK1
06.05.12 | And yes Flutter that's probably my favorite on this list along with CBK. |
PostModernJellyfish
06.05.12 | @KSK, Yea man. I mean it doesn't stress me out so much. If people want to be stupid, I just let them. It sorts itself out, usually. But walking into a Walgreens and asking, "Is there a pharmacy here?" can get grating after about the 150th time. |
pmmets07
06.05.12 | i've hated every job i've had because of social anxiety. the job itself is always easy but having to be around co-workers that i don't know is brutal |
KSK1
06.05.12 | @foxxxy, sounds pretty damn chill I'd hold on to that. I'm going back to school in sept so I just gotta hold down something sucky for now but it'd be nice to have something cushy like that. |
andcas
06.05.12 | @pmmets07, I feel your pain. |
pmmets07
06.05.12 | like right now i work at a pizza place and it's super easy and delicious but i can't fucking stand going in there and the thought of it makes me so stressed out :/ |
KSK1
06.05.12 | @Post, yeah the questions are insane. I use to have people ask how to spell Target when they were writing a check. Also arguing with people and telling them they can't return stuff was my favorite thing ever haha. Helps me take out some of the hatred I had for all the customers (or guests as we were forced to call them). |
wacknizzle
06.05.12 | ^ That's what it's like with what pretty much every job I've worked, I delivered pizza for about a year as well. |
KSK1
06.05.12 | @pmmets, yeah me too. I think waking up and thinking about going to work is worse than the job itself. My boss is kind of a cunt though so that makes it suck more. |
KSK1
06.05.12 | @foxxxy, Criminal Justice. I was accepted to a school about an hr from my house but they have no housing so I need to team up with some other students and get an apartment. That would be the only thing holding me back but I think I can make it happen. |
pmmets07
06.05.12 | lol i hear you. job dread is the worst. once you get there it's bad but not as bad as the anticipation. god i hate jobs. |
PostModernJellyfish
06.05.12 | @KSK, My favorite scenarios usually involve coupons. I like screwing with the people that have Couponing down to a science. They get the most butthurt. |
GuanoBumbershoot
06.05.12 | I had a really bad bout of depression back when I was like 17, and our good friend social anxiety became a big part of it after a while. I can feel for you man. I can remember what it was like trying to work at a restaurant with that shit. So glad I got over it. |
KSK1
06.05.12 | @Post, Hahaha it's crazy how similar that is to my time at a big retail store. As the front end manager, it was always my decision whether or not to accept the coupon and I would find every reason I could not to accept them. Shortly before I was let go, I argued with a guy who is a regular pain in the ass over a penny. he wanted to use a 1.00 off coupon on a 99 cent item and he wasn't happy lol. |
KSK1
06.05.12 | Thanks foxxxy i'm gonna give it my all lol. |
PostModernJellyfish
06.05.12 | Yea I don't understand what's so hard to understand: If it's 99 cents, how the fuck can you use a dollar coupon? Where's the fucking dollar?! |
KSK1
06.05.12 | For real everyone is so goddamn greedy I swear. I also look pretty young so they didn't like hearing they couldn't do from someone they don't even think is over 18 (I'm 21). |

06.05.12 | I've always worked retail and it can be bad at times, but the majority of my coworkers have been great. |
andcas
06.05.12 | I've worked at music and clothing stores. the horror stories of costumers. |
PostModernJellyfish
06.05.12 | Yea I get that, too. More so since I am only 19. I still have yet to figure out why being younger than most of my customer base makes them more right than me. And considering that most of my customers didn't even graduate middle school, I think I should be insulted. |
KSK1
06.05.12 | Yeah the people you work with in a retail setting is the only thing that ever makes it worth it. |

06.05.12 | Just started my new job yesterday, a take and bake pizza place. Not bad pay and I work with some cool people. Alot better than my old job. |
andcas
06.05.12 | I had a woman come in during black friday and play air piano while she hummed for me to try to figure out what band t-
shirt she was looking for her daughter. I finally figured out she was playing coldplay's clocks and told her we didn't sell
those kinds of bands. she rolled her eyes then got an attitude before heading to best buy despite I told her they don't sell
shirts. |
KSK1
06.05.12 | @post Yeah they havent figured out that "The customer is always right" is a lie. One woman once said
"what are you like 15?" and y reply was "no, but just because i'm younger than you doesn't make me
stupid. I'm not a fetus, I have a fully developed brain" lol. |
PostModernJellyfish
06.05.12 | Pizza places seem like they would be nice to work at. Or the local ones, at least. Not like Pizza Hut or anything. |

06.05.12 | my cousin used to work at a candy store down by the santa cruz boardwalk, and i'd volunteer there once in a while. it was alright. he's grown and like 30 though, I was like 11 at the time lol |

06.05.12 | i work at radioshack and surprisingly enough we hav a lot of free time |
wacknizzle
06.05.12 | Not always, I worked at a local Pizza Place/Bar/Restaurant and the work load I had to do plus delivering was staggering. I only took many deliveries during peak hours, the rest of the time was portioning, baking wings, breading zucchini onion rings n fish, doing dishes, cooking food, cleaning the fryers, slicing the cheese various lunch meats tomatoes zucchini, the list goes fucking on, that job fucking blew towards the end, they just kept adding more work for me to do. |
KSK1
06.05.12 | I always wanted to do pizza delivery when i was younger. I always figured it was just driving around listening to music. but from what other people have said its not that easy. |
PostModernJellyfish
06.05.12 | I retract my previous statement. Holy shit. That sounds so tedious. |
ThroneOfAgony
06.05.12 | it was really awesome volunteering at the candy store, the beach was directly in front of us, and the store always had an overwhelming candy/taffy aroma. Still, it was amazing volunteering there, and my god it'd be kick ass to go back there this summer |
wacknizzle
06.05.12 | When your driving around listening to music delivering pizzas is pretty cool, especially when the customers are nice and give good tips. You'll have some funny experiences and some bad but good stories. |
Eclecticist
06.05.12 | [insert paragraph comment here]
Interesting. |
KSK1
06.05.12 | My buddy did pizza deliver and he would always get called to shitty motels in the area where people wqould give shit tips. You have your good days and bad days i guess. |

11.08.12 | Ya network marketing (with a good product) can make you a lot of money, but you have to be outgoing as fuck and know a lot of people that trust you. |
