Worst: Working at the vet clinic! People were way psycho, especially the vets!!! The office manager was a sociopath, I swear!!! It was like working in the twilight zone, where everything that was good, was really bad. Strange place!!
Best: Where I'm at now. An office manager working for a Clinical Psychologist dealing with Autism. I love it...its such a great place and everyone is so nice. :)
Well I've only had 3 jobs...:o
Worst: I worked at an inventory place...I only went like 2-3 times lol so I doesn't really count. We went to shopko and had to do inventory, counting all the racks and trying to figure out if it was your machine beeping or somebody elses. I quit because I didn't like it but also I got pancreatitis right after I started and had to go to the hospital so I didn't want to mess with it. Anything counting/math related doesn't work for me.
2nd worst: I worked as a cashier at a gas station for about 6 months. I didn't hate it, but I didn't enjoy it either. It was rather dull. It also sucked because there wasn't a scanner or anything so you just had to memorize the price of everything in the store pretty much.
Best: Working as a groomer at Petco. I've been there for about 2 1/2 years now. It has good days and bad days and sometimes I want to strangle customers but overall I enjoy it. I like working with the animals (when they're not trying to bite me :o ) and getting to see all sorts of different dog breeds. It's nice that I can take my dog to work sometimes too. :)
I really want to start my own grooming or pet related business, I think that is a job I would be very happy at. :)
is that your worst AND best? :DQuote:

Worst: summer job at a summer camp. I had to clean the toilets, sweep the bedroomfloors,nwash tons of dishes.... . YUCH!!
Best: all my teaching jobs. The very best was when I had a group of first graders.
Worst job: I worked a summer job at the Meat Science lab as an undergraduate. I got to make dog treats; sounds great but I always ended up smelling like dead animals.
Best job: the one I have now..though I'm still a student I get a stipend and get to work in the lab all day. I've never enjoyed myself more!
Worst job: Working in a canning factory standing next to a conveyor belt where the peas (in cold water) went by. Our job was to pick out the foreign matter, i.e. anything that the machines picked up in the fields in the course of harvesting the peas (which included pieces of chopped up mice). It was wet and cold and made even worse by having to work next to my mother.
I don't think the *canning season* lasted that long, but it was HORRIBLE.
Best job: The one I have now, being self-employed doing all the office work for a remodeling contractor. I have an office in my home and my client places a lot of trust in me as I have signature authority on all his accounts. There is enough variety to keep me from getting bored and I can more or less schedule what tasks I want to do when (with the exeption of answering the phone which I have to do when it rings.:p ) This job suits my personality to a T.

That reminds me of the old joke....
I was so ugly my mom hung a piece of meat around my neck so the dog would play with me!
:eek: :rolleyes:
BEST JOB: (Well, it's a volunteer job- if that counts) Working at Camp Anokijig all summer and on the weekends in spring and fall. I work with their herd of 53 horses, doing all sorts of jobs ranging from teaching kids how to ride to doctoring sick, injured horses. Best job in the world, I don't want to get paid for it, best times of my life...
WORST JOB: Haven't had one yet, thank goodness. The paying job I have now is so-so, I have a lot of fun when my co-workers Nate and Jeff are there, otherwise it can be very boring and overwhelming- I don't HATE it though.
Worst job was working behind the candy counter at a local 10 cents store when I was in high school. I gained 5 lbs.:D
Best job was as an order expeditor for General Electric. The local
office supplied electrical equipment for contractors. I had very little
direct supervision & and the work was fast paced, but a lot of fun. :)
I've had alot of pretty bad jobs. I think the WORST was working at Core Electric. I think I was hired just so I could get out their freaking Christmas cards! I was actually SO greatful when they fired me!!! I walked out and never looked back.
The BEST job I ever had is the one I'm at now, Michigan Memorial Funeral Home. The people are great to work with and they reward their employees for a great job. Can't wait to go full time the end of this month. Good things come to those who wait!!
I've only had two jobs, so I guess one is best and one is worst:)
Worst: I did secretary stuff at my aunt's office where my mom also worked, along with many members of that side of my family. I loved working with them, they are a riot. But the jobs, for me, were boring and repetitive. I was there for 4 or 5 years.
Best: I LOVE my job now - I look forward to working, and will visit on my days off. I work at a small, privately owned pet store. I've been there almost a year and a half. And its more than just getting to know the regular dogs that come in, conversing with people who love pets as much as I do, and playing with the new 8 week old puppies that come in. I get along with all my co-workers, but I've become best friends with four of them (and they are all older than me). They are my support group, I trust them with anything, and I thank God everyday for them.
Worst job: Counting bottles. MI has a 10 cent refund on pop and beer bottles. Before those nifty automated machines, we had to count them by hand.
The summer was the worst. People would leave their bottles in garbage bags outside and bring them in. The smell!! :eek: :mad:
Not to mention the added bonuses in some of the bags..... insects, dirty diapers, syringes, dead animals, and used condoms are among the list.
*shudders*
I didn't mind cashiering or bagging groceries, but employees would literally vanish when a bottle counter was needed. :rolleyes:
Best job: The one I have now. Working at a Law School Library as a Web Tech. :D My co-workers are great and I love the atmosphere.
LOLOLOL,

I just thought of that joke today actually. They have a "your mama" jokes contest and that is one of the only ones I can come up with. LOL
