I've worked HARD and LONG days in the newspaper business and in my hardwood flooring store and with my previous company in the DC area but never were they shitty or crazy awful.

Never working hard or having a shitty job is win-win. Congrats on that! :clap:

Well they are micro managers. There's signs on the doors saying "No cell phones in the bathroom". They have plastic baskets to put your phone in outside the doors. I take mine in anyways. Such a joke.

The job itself is worse than working a drive thru window as far as repetitive things. It's a call center desk job. I'm too young to be sitting stationary all day. They wont give me a standing desk either and if I have to ask a question to someone in the office I have to type in a code so they can track what I'm doing every second when I'm not on the phone.

This would be a great job for a Walmart door greeter who's content with taking it easy and making some extra money after retirement.

Most people don't. Not anymore. Just look at the labor participation rate in this country. But hard work used to be expected and was a badge of honor among young men.

As a kid: cuttin' rakin' and balin' and fillin' the barn with hay/straw. Oats straw really sucked.
Filling the manure spreader with 13 stalls of horse 'droppings'.
worst - using a corn shovel to scoop about three inches of soupy hog **** from the rather large but low hog shed.
Putting hog rings in sows noses. The other sows react rather aggressively when one of those girls starts squealing.

As an adult: Using an air hammer to clean slag from the inside of a 2 x 3 by 30 foot long heat treat furnace in the dead of summer. Full Tyvek suit, goggles, ear plugs, mask, gloves. Couldn't go more than about ten minutes at a time. At least the furnace was turned off and locked out.:)

I have a job offer on the table to be a water damage removal tech. Not sure if that's the direction I want to go either. Being around mold all day might not be fun either. I do need something that brings a challenge though.

Detassling. By far. Had to get to the corn field at 5am. Be soaked and exhausted by 2pm. All while making dick. Life as a 14 year old in Iowa.

ADT. 1st job out of college. It was a sales job, but was basically 8am - 5pm. Can't do "9 to 5" thing for the man.

I'd have died. Once corn starts pollenating, I'm done scouting it until it is finished.

One time, our pivot broke down. Dad was growing silage corn at the time, and it was probably 12-15 ft tall, and shedding pollen. I was yellow when I came out and felt like I was going to die. It did it again the next day and dad let me drive the sprayer out there.

**** allergies.

Until people started realizing you're just a number and big wigs who chill and don't get their hands dirty dgaf about you. If it's a family environment I'm down, but I get one life to live and I'm not wasting it being your dog

I've had 35 jobs in my life and I wouldn't say any of them were preferable...

I remember that plant out there. It was a choice job when I was there.

This place missed you, Frazod.
