Wow, I've had some really bad jobs. But the one that comes to mind is "label inspector" at the ketchup bottling plant. This was a summer job while I was in college.

I watched ketchup bottles come off the labeling machine at 100 bottles/minute. If they were not on straight, why, I would pull them off the line before they were packed.

Duh!

Can you imagine doing that 7-1/2 hours a day for less than minimum wage? Since I didn't work full time, they didn't have to pay full wage.

Best job? Working for a public television station.
