I work in a clerical position at the DA's office. Not only is the job incredibly mundane, but my coworkers are psychotic and petty. It pays decently and I have good benefits, though. Bleh.</p> <p>Best: I worked at American Girl Place selling the historical dolls. I loved it! It actually paid really well, too, for retail, but my commute was nearly an hour and parking at the Grove in Los Angeles was expensive. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/best-or-worst-job-ever#post-7012 Fri, 28 Oct 2011 12:29:47 +0000 Mrs. Marbles 7012@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Best: My current job... I run a seafood distribution company. I get to work in the food industry and work with chefs every day. I also get to work with my family (which is a blessing and a curse!)</p> <p>Worst: A marketing coordinator for a very well-known, highly-regarded art museum in NYC. It was terrible pay. Terrible team. And just a downright negative work environment. Turned me off to working in the arts and nonprofit immediately. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/best-or-worst-job-ever#post-7004 Fri, 28 Oct 2011 12:18:03 +0000 katdevargas 7004@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Best: the job I'm at now - "Duty Manager" - I'm really not a fan of the job itself, but I love the team I'm on &amp; that makes such a difference.<br /> Worst: CSR at a small airplane insurance company - it wasn't the job so much as I was in a really bad place in my life &amp; that kind of reflected. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/best-or-worst-job-ever#post-6841 Fri, 28 Oct 2011 06:27:52 +0000 hreichard 6841@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Worst: Maid at a motel<br /> Best: Fiscal Assistant </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/best-or-worst-job-ever#post-6839 Fri, 28 Oct 2011 04:26:04 +0000 mediagirl 6839@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Best: lifeguard.<br /> Worst: Telemarketer. First day, I made a call and asked for a Mr. X. The woman on the phone started crying and said he had just recently died. My boss yelled at me for not asking her name and if she wanted the product. When I left for lunch that day, I never went back. Never even went back for my paycheck. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/best-or-worst-job-ever#post-6780 Thu, 27 Oct 2011 20:43:26 +0000 Mrs. Sunglasses 6780@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Haha. Yup! I had to pack them in boxes or even in the prepackaged 12 hotdog packs. I smelt like hotdogs all day long. Ew (hence why I cant eat them anymore) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/best-or-worst-job-ever#post-6770 Thu, 27 Oct 2011 20:35:11 +0000 mrbee 6770@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I used to do a lot of temping to put myself through school. One time, I had to clean out an industrial oven. The person who owned it hated cleaning it, so she never cleaned it and then hired a temp once a month. One month, that was me... that oven was truly disgusting.</p> <p>Another temp job I had was with a chainsaw. With no training, I was supposed to chop up a wooden platform that I was standing on!! I refused to do that, so instead I did light industrial work with a sledgehammer and stepped on a nail. There was no health insurance either.</p> <p>Two worst ever temp assignments ever were when I got sexually harassed by my temporary boss.... and later when I got fired from a job and nobody told me, and I went into the assignment the next day. Very embarrassing. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/best-or-worst-job-ever#post-6764 Thu, 27 Oct 2011 20:30:13 +0000 MaisyMay 6764@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Packing hotdog sausages? Wow, that's a job that you don't hear too often! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/best-or-worst-job-ever#post-6761 Thu, 27 Oct 2011 20:28:05 +0000 Mrs. Sunglasses 6761@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Worst - I packed hotdog sausages in a warehouse.<br /> Best - when I was a cashier at a furniture store. (while studying graphic design) That's where I met my husband ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/best-or-worst-job-ever#post-6745 Thu, 27 Oct 2011 20:04:18 +0000 MaisyMay 6745@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Just for kicks, what was your best or worst job? My best job was teaching junior high and high school, even though my boss was horrid and they didn't renew my contract. My worst job was also the teaching job.<br /> How about you? </p>
