I once shoveled snow.

I once got a packaging job through a temp service. That sucked.

You shoveled snow in the summer? what an ass.

Yeah.

detasseling corn.

I didn't have a summer job where I got paid. In the summer I worked on the farm, which was both bad and good. These were the worst: cleaning out stalls, feeding cattle and pigs, bailing hay, husking corn, weeding...

shucking and detasseling are two totally different things....this is what i did (and that's the company i did work for one summer, btw). detasseling is NOT fun....

--had to get up at like 5 in the morning every morning, in order to ride on a school bus that would take us all out from des moines to the boonies of iowa, to whoever's cornfield we were hired to work on that day. it'd be like a 2 or 3-hour ride, dependin on how far out from the city we had to go.

--when you got there, the sun would just have come up and there'd be dew on the corn plants, so you'd have to go through row upon row gettin soaked with dew and your clothes would get all muddy n'dirty (they made sure to tell you to wear old clothing/shoes each day because of this).

--then, when the sun was up and as the day went on, it'd start to get super-hot and there'd be bugs everywhere. your hands would start to cramp up from pulling tassels, and you'd get cuts on your hands and arms from the corn leaves.

...it paid well for it bein one of my very first jobs, but it fuckin sucked ass majorica. lucky for me it was only a jinky summer job.

Well, my brotha. Maybe you should have used a SnoHoe.

SNOHOE REQUIRES NO LIFTING AND WON'T SCRATCH WOOD OR OTHER DELICATE SURFACES.

I worked in a glass factory when I was 16 which was pretty unpleasant. It consisted of the following...

-Making boxes for shot glasses for 8 hours a day. The working hours were 2pm to 10pm.

-Putting glasses onto a conveyor belt for 8 hours on end.

-Pulling broken glasses off a conveyor belt with a rake.

-The worst part was having to shovel up broken glass and crap that the factory didn't use and then putting it into a crate. One of which nearly broke my hip bone.

-Towards the end of the job it begin to get better when I was moved out of the factory and into the warehouse. This involved putting boxes onto lorries. How sad is that?! Enjoying putting boxes onto lorries.

I once packed these in hot saus.

Never felt so sick in my live

Which one's the snow hoe though?

My worst job was having to pull the lobsters out of Jane Mansfields arse.

I once worked on a tomatoe farm where I had to pull the weeds from around the plants. I had to get up at 6am and finish the job at 11am.

tomato plants eh?

They "looked" like tomatoe plants.

stuffing envelopes for the british library
while i was doing it...i actually thought...i think i can do this with my eyes shut..so i tried it


and of course i could

i worked for this horrible veterinarian who had a run down disgusting animal hospial where all the vet cared about was getting paid. He would lie to his clients and keep animals overnight for no reason at all, just so he could charge them the boarding fee. If an animal was actually sick he would either just neglect it and tell us technicians nothing about treatment or he would do some botched and unecessary surgical treatment that would kill the animal.

His kennels would back up with sewage and once a dog ended up strangling himslef because he was hooked inside of his cage with a leash and tried to jump out when the sewage started backing up into the cage. He mistreated his employees and would yell at us for his dwindling clientel when the real reason was his crappy behavior and treatment. Once when he was on vacation he made us treat the animals and contact him by phone about how to do certain procedures instead of calling in a relief veterinarian. We were not to tell the clients that the doctor wasn't there. It was fucking horrible.

This other time he was going to do a surgery on this dog but he did not have enough telazol or isoflourene to put the dog under. so he gave the dog only a little bit of telazol and then when he tried to intubate him for the isoflourene, the dog swallowed the tube! I was so disgusted. Then he tried to get the tube out by holding the dog upside down and shaking him. Obviously that didn't work so he put the dog back in his kennel and called it a night. I ended up leaving and I am going to report that sick fuck.

That was my worst summer job.

I scrubbed the blood out of chutes and hosed hog entrails out from underneath platforms in a slaughter house...for about 3 days. The tortured expressions on the hog's faces as they came by on hooks and the harshness of the cleaning chemicals haunt my dreams to this day.

I'm too embarrassed to say!
