The position that I am currently in is very close indeed, in fact the saving Grace is that working from home with an internet connection, this forum has probably helped me to keep my sanity, I think wibble.
The repetition and boredom is oppressing, and the absolute "Dead endness" makes it that much more unbearable.
At least when I accepted the job I knew that it is just a temporary solution until I find something suitable and so I am safe in the knowledge that it was on no way a (Disastrous) career move.
On a brighter note though, I have a job interview with a good company and I think that I should fit in and enjoy the job very much. It should also offer me interesting and varied career options for the future also.
Fuck me I hope that I get it, wish me luck innit.

Whilst working my way through Uni, I took on loads of shit jobs.
The worst one was at a place called Faccenda, a chicken processing plant.
Live chickens came in...................................Frozen chickens (And bits) went out.
I lasted 2 nights..............

any number of shitty factory packing jobs.
I fucking hated working at MANERF as well. That's when my utter hatred of anything German started.

BOC over South Marston.
Started at 6:15am and the first break wasn't until 9:45am, it was a killer especially when you had a monster hangover like i did most days.

I lasted 2 nights.............. Faccenda! In Norton St Philip? That's where I live now (NSP, not the old factory) Someone burnt that factory down a few years back. The site is still in the village waiting for a buyer... |

Iv'e had my fair share of shitty temp factory jobs as well: St. Ivel (Putting lids on yoghourt pots), packing cd's into cases and one where I had to do nothing but push a button on some sort of address stamping machine. But I found that there where usually a few like minded souls and we generally had the crack.
I lasted about 4 days at the MacDonalds drive through on Great Western Way. In my of my training I was actually given instructions on how to sleep a fucking floor and was shocked to find that an Answers and Question's session followed. I refused to answer any question as I found it soooooo fucking patronising, and because I asked no questions I was put down as a BUMBASS!!!!! I found the pride that some of the staff held in the stars on their name badges embarassing and I think that it was a comment along the lines of (I couldn't care less about some f'in gold star) that got me the sack.

Cant say i have had a job i truley hated, Only had 3, and 2 or em were only part time.
Paper round- I actualy enjoyed it, and in the winter and when it rained my old man would take me out in the car as he was on nights, so he would some in as i was leaving, cushty.
Sainsbury's- Bit of a crappy job but looking back at it it wasnt terrible
Current Job- Out of the 3 this wouold be the worse but its not that bad

I've been lucky. Only ever had 3 proper jobs and all been good! Just tele-marketing, it might not be so bad if I had some work colleague's around me but working from home on my own is the shit's. No real incentive either as in about 7 months I have made 0.00 in comission. Still though, as I have said I knew before that I even accepted the job that it was just a filler until I find something better. |
