working 8 months at a shaws supermarket

a customer changed his mind on what he wanted at the time when we were halfway finished making his stuff.

Nothing to bad to write about, maybe some coworkers that I didn't get along with

I live in a 80% white town and most of the employees at the local pho place are white and i must admit it was pretty weird having pho served to me by a white woman for the first time but i think it's kinda craycray that people would write about you on yelp LOL o.o o.o

I served at a restaurant once, and this guy was screaming at me, "Hey dude, why do you only have ONE toothpick in this table? And this toothpick is of poor quality, see that?"

He then shows me the broken toothpick. He then rambles mpre, and stared at me with a 'stabby look' then said, "So? What do you have to say?"

I got annoyed and then told him, "Sir, 10 other people used that same toothpick, and you were the only one to break it."

Oh, the stress.

Don't think anything in my work experience can top the homeless guy wanting me to fight him because I caught him stealing beer

This was my old job a few months ago but I quit since I am moving and wanted to enjoy my summer. I had a very high paying job - $12 an hour cleaning up spaces for a company, they'd use the cleaned spaces for events or offices. My first place to clean was lovely, it was a penthouse on the 31st floor of a building in down town Vancouver 2 blocks from my house. It was so beautiful since it was near completion and I was there since the carpenters and excess tiles needed to be moved and stacked, the marble floors needed to be swept, window sills needed to be dusted and I had to clean up after the stupid trade people which was a pain since they are the messiest. It was really exhausting though because I only had 30 minutes to an hour (depending on if I walked or took the bus) from the time I got home from school to the time I had to be at work.

So eventually I finished up at the penthouse and there was a new location. This location was in Chinatown, they wanted to convert a Chinese restaurant into an office space which may sound weird to some people but the interior of restaurants are usually really nice and this one was no exception, the only problem was that it wouldn't be nice until it was cleaned. Like all restaurants there's a kitchen in the back and that's where the worst experience happened! The kitchen was a giant space and it was oil stained. The walls had oil on them, the pipes had oil mixed with foil on them, the counter had oil on them and I'm not talking about Canola oil fresh out of the can. This oil was dark and hardened like it had been centuries since it had been disturbed causing for a terrible smell and extremely hard to get off. On top of all of this there were SPIDERS - everywhere. I am so very scared of spiders that if I didn't have my friend to work with me (I was allowed to pick a helper to also get paid since the place was large) I probably would have just quit right then and there. Combine the smell, hours on hours of scrubbing hardened oil off of things and being in the vicinity of so many spiders that was definitely my worst work experience.

tl;dr Worked cleaning spaces for a company. Company had me clean space with terrible smell, spiders and oil.

Caring for patients, developing attachments, and then having them pass away. After a few of those I decided for a career change.

I use to get payed minimum wage to screw bottle caps onto bottles 8 hrs a day 5 days a week.

I had a boss with bi polar. He flip flopped with everything and you never wanted to approach him at the wrong time.

@Joiry: Yea I hate this job rn unless there aren't any people because I actually like my coworkers!1
and ugh I wish I got the job at red mango bc then they just serve themselves

People at walmart are weird.

As a police officer my comrades were murdered right in front of me and I got shot in the arm, it really hurt... okay I lied this never happened to me.

[quote=katrie]I work at dunkin donuts and work with crabby people who haven't had their coffee. I make the drinks based on the receipt so things will go wrong if the receipt is wrong.
So many people take it back and make me remake their drinks and they're just rude about it and I just want to pour it on them.
If they weren't so mean about it and asked nicely I have no problem with remaking it.[/quote]

KAT Im so proud of you cutie but i would not want to work at a restaurants or food place bc people are rude when theyre hungry. They just want food and the respect is just gone
