Mine was "fry girl". No matter how many times I showered I always smelled like fries and/or onion rings and that smell lingered in my car, room, etc.....

Haha kat. I worked as a soux chef for 3 years. Some of my junk clothes still smell like fryer grease. That was 7 years ago. My least favorite was a cashier at Citgo. Why did I hate it? It wasn't the monotony, it's just that some people are really freakin dumb.
Hands down, with out a doubt, was one of my High School jobs: I worked at local version of "Chuck E Cheese". That job was Hell on Earth. I would sell crack to preschoolers before going back to that job.
Second is any other job I had in the food service industry.

dipars

brats
since then its a toss up........I worked at a half way house that lasted about 3 weks before I walked or my last job, two crazy bitches over me and both control freaks.
Cleaning and waxing floors in a hospital one summer when I was 18. When I first started, that big floor waxing thing would always get away from me, haha. The only good thing was that I worked only 20 hours a week but made more money than my friends who were working 40 hours a week. But then I didn't have anybody to play with until after 5, since my workday ended at 11 am.

Working with fiberglass. You think smell is bad. Try a 24 hour itch!!!! The only time your entire body didn't itch is sunday night, becuase it would take all weekend to work its way out. Hot showers make pours open, which made it worse, and cold shows just suck no matter what time of year it is!!!!! I would take a bath in that french fry grease and BECOME that smell before I ever went back to that fiberglass job!

Waitress. Lasted a week. I decided to quit before I killed someone (almost poured a steaming hot pile of spaghetti and sauce on a baby). Apparently I'm not meant to do that kind of work.

Nope. The parents just didn't give a rat's ass.
The worst was when a kid would piss or shit in the ball pool and I had to clean it out. Then there's the kids who have the birthdays and turn the sheet cake upside down and mash it into the table. Then there's the kids who have contests with their little kazoos to see who can blow them the loudest.
ARRRGGGHHH!!! I NEED THERAPY AGAIN!!

My worst job was when I was a temp at the Mallard's pasta plant. The supervisor didn't speak very much english, I was handed a broom and told to "clean floor" and that is what I would do for a whole 8 hour shift. Sweeping up half frozen pasta in a 40' X 60' room, and 5 different pasta lines running. I was one of only 2 white girls on that shift. The rest were hispanic, they would get pissed off at me if I bumped into them while sweeping and the next time I would come by the sorters picking out the bad ones would have purposely missed the garbage buckets so I had more to sweep up! I temped there for 6 weeks one time and 4 weeks another time! I learned what it was like to be in the minority for a change!

I worked in a non-union die cutting shop for 6 bucks an hour (union $26 back in 1988) making boxes. At one point the shop ran out of orders and the boss had us "gluing" to keep us busy. So what we did for 8 hours a day was sit at a table with a white glue and popcicle stick and glue together the seems of 6 inch ginseng boxes. Once we had glued five boxes glued we'd feed them into a little compressor machine that would spit them out the other side.
So, during the second week of the the slow down, I put that tape cassette in front of the clock radio when we started at 7:15. So finally, after what seemed like a couple hours, I moved the cassette to see if it was almost coffee breat time, and it was 7:45. A lousy half hour had passed! I stood up and went in the owners office and told him that I was finished and if I stayed I might die.
And that was the end of my die cutting career... hahaha

My food is in the kitchen can you pick it up for me.
I believe everyone has to experience a food spot, so I worked at a pizza ranch for about 9 months, wasn't bad. I didn't know what a good job was but the one I hated the most was a telemarketing job I worked at for TWO days only. I didn't even make it passed training period.

Let's see...delivered pizza's for Domino's and Pizza Hut for many, many, years but never had to work in the kitchen. UGH!!!
Worst Job is a toss up between Gas Station attendant and Security.
Worked at the Gas Station when they still had Full Service pumps. So I would have to go out and pump gas for other people. Always came home smelling like Gasoline. The boss would never stand up for his employees, when they were right. Usually 90% of the time.
The worst part of working Security was that the clients I worked for hired my agency to provide guards. Usually as a insurance write off. Very boring job, usually worked at factories and such. Would go on rounds and if I discoved something that presented a hazard or possible break-in I would turn in a report and/or notify someone. Problems usually never got fixed. Then when something did happen they would always blame the guard. Then I would show them copies of my reports. Why is it when after something happens then the problem gets fixed. Got tired real quick of being used as a scapegoat. Or just being used in general. One plant I was at I had a client that would make policy, change it two weeks later, and then two weeks after that try to bust you for not doing it the way you were originally told. Always got copies signed off by this client on changes of orders. When we showed him the paperwork he would always brush it off. Some people never learn.

Those that make things happen.
Those that watch things happen.
Those that wonder what happened.
Which one are you?
I've never done the fast food thing, but have had a few jobs that sucked...but not necessarily because of what I did. (hanging drywall for instance...but I liked the work)
Mostly I have worked for myself....so the 'job' that I hated the most would prolly be insulating houses after I built them. Econ is right about the fiberglass...it just sucked and there was no way around it.
Once I built a house and the inspectors would not make an appointment for like 3 days hence...so to keep my crew busy, we started putting in the insullation in the catheral cealiings of the place....leaving LARGE HOLES to easily see the roof framing and bracing. Inspector walked in...and said "call back when you get that insulation torn out of the ceilings" I basically asked him if he was shitting me...he assured me he was not... I pointed out the HUGE FRIGGING HOLES we had left for him to view ALL relevant framing and bracing....he said he didn't give a shit and the sooner I called the sooner they would send someone back out and left.
So we were able to get another appointment in 2 days...and tore out the shit trying to not damage it. This time the inspector walked in...GLANCED UP....and started asking questions about the building system we were using (it was new to them then) .......after about 20 minutes of answering his questions....I asked him about the fraiming inspection since he hadn't even glanced up a second time. He says "Oh...thats just FINE! Your guys can start insulating now"

Zap, now that would suck. I have similar problems in the boat industry. Inspectors are complete assholes. They know they have you by the balls and love to take advantage of it. After the first couple of years of putting up with that I got “CERT-ed” to do it my self JUST to get away from that shit. So, I feel your pain on that one. Don’t you wish you could just send them a bill for the extra labor and material? LOL
