    I cleaned horse stalls for 2.5 years in high school, but the worst job i've ever had was being a bus boy at a family mexican restaurant. They treated us non family members so bad they went through 3 other bus boys in the 6 months I worked there lol.

    the worst job i ever had was a temporary assignment in a mayonnaise factory. my job in the assembly line was unfolding boxes for the mayonnaise to go in. i worked right night to the 200 gallon vats of mayonnaise being made.

    i stunk BAD when i got home after a day of working there.

    Not many women will tell you they are high maintenance. Most will say they are not. You usually find out along the way.

    Here's a better way. Take her to a Tacoma event and show her all the trucks. If she says, "I'm bored." Get rid of her. If she says, "You should do that to your truck." Marry her on the spot.

    I have the best and worst job. I get to climb cell towers and do maintenance on the antennas/ electrical equip/ wires/ and change the light bulbs.

    Awesome in the summer. Sucks balls in the winter. Most of the towers are on top of mountains. Fun getting up there in the snow, but it sucks climbing ice covered towers with 50-60 mph winds.

    I am on call 24/7, I stay gone from my family at least 25-30 days at a time with maybe 1-2 days off. I work 7-12 hr shifts, mostly nights. My job is to follow drilling rigs around and to log the holes that they drill so they know what type of formation theyre drilling in. I never see my family, I dont have time to keep many friends anymore, but its all I could find and to make sure my kids have food on the table. I guess it could be worse, but this job sucks.:(

    I do root canals all day, everyday. Some may think that's the worst, but I think it's the best.

    when i was 16 and 17 i worked in the flooring buisness. i was the bitch boy that did all the hard work. like bringing up pallets and pallets of heavy asss tile to the 7th bloor of buildings. on my hands and knees all days scraping the floors to lay new tile and go home with practically bleeding hands. and worst of all i have 3 disk buldges, scolosis, 1 degenative disk, and degenative disk disease. (this means my back is fucked up) and i think that job took about 5 years out of my back for the 5 months i did it... i dont think its the worst cause i still saw my family every night but still...

    My previous job was pretty bad, well for me anyway. I did food safety inspections for (a store you probably shopped at in the past week) and various grocery stores all over Tennessee. Had no time for a personal life because I was never at home. I lived in Murfreesboro TN (Pretty cool town although I never got to check it out) I paid rent for an apartment that I was only in for about 9 days a month. In the year I worked for (un-named company) the only new people I met were employees for the stores I had to visit. I'd visit 4-6 stores a day with hours of travel between each one in a company van that sucked to drive. I had 145 or so stores that I had to visit each month. I'm about to puke just thinking about it. Since I quit that job over 4 years ago, I've been in (a store you probably shopped at in the past week) maybe 4 or 5 times. Can't stand the smell nor 80% of the people that shop there.
    Some folks might say they'd like it, but for me, absolutely not.

    P.S. I can't stand Hampton Inn, Holiday Inn, Comfort Inn or any other 60-120 dollar a night hotel. Hampton does have fluffy pillows though.

    Not on purpose. They would be hidden in their pants leg or burried in the pile. But always check your pockets before you go. Don't know how many times I found money, bank statments, credit cards, drivers licences, drugs, and other crap. Don't worry though everything but change and trash went back to the owners. The best was when someone gave you the $20 bucks you found in the pocket for being honest.
