That girl that says "i had to find legal help" is just emitting so much happiness and positive energy with her wonderful smile, she's just a great person am sure
My worst (and first) job was at a cafe which was part of a franchise. At 15 years old, on my first day, they showed me a glimpse of a list of about 15 types of coffee and told me I needed to memorise it by the next day. They ridiculed me in front of customers and used weird manipulative techniques- including having a girl interviewed in the store and heavily alluding that she will replace/ take some of my shifts if I don’t get my act together. At the time this worsened my already low mental health and it wasn’t until a few months later when it improved that I realised my mistakes were stemming from a complete lack of training and nerves from the toxicity, but it was very difficult to seperate this experience from my perception of myself at the time. Anyways they shut down a month after I quit so slay
Me working at Thai express and them wanting me to know all the secret menu and every single item after a day and also them wanting me to take all customers, respond to the phone, clean the toilets and cook things in the back and the front for minimum wage. Now I work in a bank and im treated like a princess
My worst job was my first job in America at a restaurant.. nobody can ever get me to work at a restaurant ever again. I’ve always been kind to people at restaurants ever since and I tip accordingly.
Restaurant jobs really are the worst. I love food service but you won't ever catch me working in a restaurant again. Bakeries/prep kitchens are where it's at
It was a specific co-worker that made hate my job. The standards she had me working was exhausting, and she doesn’t hold herself to those same standards. And when something happened that annoyed her she would tell me off regardless if it was my fault or miscommunication. She was 20 while I was 16 and it made me cry sometimes since it was my first real job and I felt as though I could never do everything right.
I had a very similar situation with the same ages and everything, thankfully they quit and the job is much better now but it was hell when they were there
I had a coworker like that...I came to find out I was hired at at least 5k more than her even though she was in a more senior position, and.I think she knew that and was super critical at times
We had a 60 something loser who was the most miserable, and passive aggressive bitch I've ever met. She would talk about you behind your back, snap at all of us randomly, "snitch" on us to the boss. I put snitch is air quotes because it was never complaints of actual substance, just us not doing her job for her, and meeting her crazy expectations that she never held herself to half of. She'd pick fights, make the entire kitchen tense asf for absolutely no reason, and then proceeded to get upset when nobody talked to her. She would pick on the younger, more awkward coworkers on purpose because she knew they were least likely to confront her or report her for harassment. I honestly think that if she gets buried, I'm going to bring a bunch of collected dog and cat poop and just dump it all over her stone. 😭😭🤭
@@carmabelle1717 why? That sounds incredibly unfair and I can completely understand why she'd feel that way. That situation shouldn't have happened and is just wrong
@@wolfzmusic9706I agree. I didn't know about the discrepancy until not long before she left the job. I realize it was an unfair situation, but I didn't cause it and she took her frustration out on me.
My very first job at bob evans was literal hell. I would almost cry every day I pulled in the parking lot. I was 16-18 and I was mentally, verbally, and emotionally abused by all of my managers, all of my coworkers, and almost all the customers EVERY day. My gm was and is still the absolute worst person I’ve EVER met who HATED me. I was her number one target. She made other employees cry too. Mind you my coworkers and managers were all mid twenties or thirties some forties and all bullying a small quiet teenage girl. On top of that I was being bullied at school too and had a shitty family at home. I don’t know how I worked there for over two years
They literally hate youth. Bitter, miserable people who're upset they wasted their prime, and are now stuck at the same job a teenager can do, and does better.
I worked at a Bob Evans and it wasn't TERRIBLE until I requested time off for a school function (I'm paying for and getting graded on this!) The manager told me "requests aren't guaranteed" and they considered it a no call no show.
My worst job was bagging groceries at a retail store. Their message was basically to step up you need to have no life except for the store, and to advance you need to step on others. And the customer? Always right. No matter what, like return food a year old covered in mold and they got a full refund no matter what
Sounds like many industries, they all want you to give your soul to the job while getting nothing in return compared to that sacrifice. To advance you will need to step on others, suck up, and give up even more of your soul/morals. Then lastly...their source of revenue is always right even when dead wrong.
My worst job was working at a stadium and unfortunately was my first job too. What was so bad about a stadium you may think? Well, when your an 18 year old girl working in the most expensive area in the stadium with fresh A/C, VIP and other perks, I had to deal with pervs, drunks, from not only the people but employees as well, it was a bit terrifying esp from employees. I was a ticket taker at that so trying to keep people from entering unless they had a ticket was too much for me, so I left after 2 months.
@@DA-js7xz I get this. I put up with it a bit during night shifts/special occasions and some drunk men shit/piss anywhere:( My mom deals with the Good Old Boys Club as a remote online worker and her old job where a boss would take her work as his own.
I’m so sorry you had that experience but its crazy to me that I had a super similar situation. I worked as a bar manager for the suites of a football stadium at 18. I absolutely loved it tho
My worst job was at a grocery store. I've worked at a few grocery stores, it was never a dream career but it was fine, except this one place. The managers kept getting replaced and each one was more psychotic than the last. One banned employees from shopping at the store after our shifts because it "looked bad" for some reason. Another got rid of breaks. Once I had the audacity to ask to go to the bathroom during a nine hour shift and a male employee followed me to the women's bathroom to make sure I was actually just going to the bathroom. We had to line up and get patted down at the end of our shift every day to make sure we weren't stealing. We were only allowed to drink water out of cups from the cafeteria which were the size of a shit glass, and since we stopped getting breaks we stopped getting water. Obviously unstable customers were blamed on us. I once got written up for not smiling wide enough. You literally couldn't ask for a day off, I once again got written up for not coming in on a day I told them months in advance I wasn't coming in for. If the store was closed a holiday you had to come in on one of your days off to make up for it, same for if you called in sick. We did get two weeks vacation time but you couldn't choose when it was and weren't told when it was until I week before it happened. This was at a major UK supermarket chain. I was only living in the UK temporarily so I don't know if that kind of insanity is normal there or if the particular location I was at was just run by psychopaths but I literally felt like I had been freed from prison the day I left that job.
My worst job was working in fast food. The manager was nice and very understanding while the ones below her were not the best. The customers were awful and that’s the only reason why I quit because I couldn’t handle getting disrespected by them and not having management stick up for me when the customers were clearly in the wrong.
I worked fast food for a day. They trained me for 30 mins on three different tasks(!!!!!!), and my first individual task? Drive thru. I didn't know the screens yet, knew maybe 4 items on the menu, and they put me on a shitty headset with some pothead on the other end, listing off 10 different items, adding customizations. Never looked back.
@@xojordo that one day was absurd lmao. Everyone was so insanely incompetent at answering questions, too. Half of my day was thrown on the register, where you pay for and receive your food, and luckily I did okay because I was by myself. By myself within my second hour! At this point, I knew maybe three people's names?? They were just like, "oh yeah, Jeff is leaving early today, so you'll be over there for the rest of the day." I also almost slipped on the greasy ass floors like 4 times. How anyone works more than a week in one of those hell holes, is beyond me. I seriously commend them, and I can see why most of my coworkers looked high, because dealing with that shit sober? Jfc.
Piggly Wiggly was my worst job. I had people going off on me about the prices when I was just a cashier and I was called the N-word quite often when customers didn’t get their way. I got in trouble because a customer threw coins at me. The manager told me I should have called for him but he was looking dead at me when the customer was yelling. Never again! It was during HS.
Honestly this. I just want to do something mildly interesting I can get through while listening to podcasts, make enough to enjoy vacation but not be in something so cutthroat I can never relax on vacation, and have enough extra for hobbies. I don't need to reach a pinnacle of a career ladder, work life balance is the sweet spot
Apparently I had a great manager during my sales career. If the bathroom literally got blown up and $h!t everywhere he told us not to worry and cleaned it up himself. Shout out to you, Chris!
Had an abusive job where i used to go in and the manager would scream at me at the top of his lungs. I used to go home and cry everyday. He used to call me an idiot and called my coworker a "little btch".
@@eenchantress5113 I don’t think it’s illegal. Managers are able to yell and insult employees without getting in trouble. I know because I’ve dealt with plenty of managers like this.
Work is therapeutic. Prisoners need to be doing something all day. If you were paid nothing to build houses all day in prison, you would be way ahead when you got out. There is no talk therapy, only work therapy.
The worst job I ever had was at Dollar General. I had a cool manager and coworkers. The company itself is terrible. They treated the employees as thieves, we were always a skeleton crew and we never had enough time to stock the shelves. They only paid minimum wage as well. If you wanted a raise, you basically had to be a key holder or something. Fuck that place. Look at all the tick toks that are being made about it.
Worst job I've ever had hands down 462 chancellor avenue night shift at wendys. Ever had a job that had a rat epidemic, drug dealing epidemic and prostitution epidemic all in one year? I have. Toxic managers, wage theft, "you don't get breaks", sexual harassment, straight up breaking the law- I could write an entire 11 season tv show about what went on at that restaurant.
I worked in kitchens for many years and it's a difficult industry but it wasn't the worst. Most people I worked with there were great. No, the worst was working at a convenience store. And it was the worst because you then realize how shitty, rude, disgusting and incompetent about 1/3 of the population is. It honestly made me lose faith in humanity. Good luck to everyone entering that World or working any customer service job. Know that you are worth it and that no, the customer isn't always right.
my worst job is working at a dealership where my boss is verbally abusive towards you and screams in your face. but also cheats on his wife with the other manager in the room.
working at panera was absolutely horrible. my first shift i had to clean my manager’s diarrhea off the toilet and the restaurant wasn’t even open to the public yet
I've applied to server jobs who want me to have 6+ years of experience. I've served before, but 6 years?? 6 years ago I wasn't able to vote. You don't need 6 years or serving to be a good server lmao.
my worst job was when i worked at a local vegan juice and snack shop mid-pandemic. i was “fired” on day 3 or so, i had wanted to work there because the folks seemed nice and they hired me on the spot, although there were a lot of red flags i failed to notice bc i’d never worked before and i really wanted to work. my coworkers would constantly ignore my questions and would tell me things about my shoes / phone or hairnet very rudely. the first day after work when my mom asked me how it went i cried in her arms for 30 minutes and couldn’t stop crying. nevertheless i showed up for work the next day bc i didn’t want to be a quitter. the manager failed to train me properly and probably spent less than 30 mins training me and she had other people try to train me but they would get annoyed that i was new and would ignore me my whole 7 hour shift. i had to deal with rude customers calling me degrading and offensive things, i had to deal with mean coworkers and it was just awful not to mention how unsanitary the whole thing was, no gloves were properly worn, dead cockroaches in the food preparing tables etc. etc. i was on my feet for HOURS and could only take 1 10 minute break secretly, it was the worst place i have ever worked at and when i was fired i entered the worst depression i could’ve ever had, i felt at my lowest point, my mental health was terrible, thankfully 2 years later i have healed from that experience and i now work at my university and my coworkers are patient, understanding and kind to me w/ in my first month working ❤ i just hope anyone who wants to start working has a better first job experience than i had ❤
Aww I’m happy for you. Man I thought I was sensitive with coworkers not liking me. It just gives me anxiety like I’m very introverted so I just stop asking questions to not piss ppl off😭
I was a waitress at a Japanese Steakhouse years ago, and we were forced to "tip out" our cooks and bussers based on our sales at the end of the day. Some days I would walk home with only $4 in my pocket after a long shift. Never again....
Funnily enough, none of them mentioned the military. Which comes to teach you that talking with people is by far worse than shooting in their general direction.
I'm 31 and have worked for over 25 companies (moved a lot, had 2-3 jobs, seasonal, etc) and had a boss that caused me to develop alopecia from extreme stress. I felt like I couldn't quit because it was difficult to find this job but eventually I left.
For context I’m 5”2 and I have a larger chest. I worked at a local Mom&Pop diner and because it’s been there for 50+ years a large portion of our customers were senior citizens so a good majority of my older male customers wouldn’t even make eye contact with me they would just stare at my chest and make comments about how I should “smile more” ugh
My worst job was at a financial advisor company. They didn’t train me much. So if I messed up, it was apparently my fault (you know, the stuff I didn’t get trained on). My boss was a narcissistic, insensitive prick. She would yell at and belittle me. I would come home in tears. I left a month later. It was an asked to be resigned thing… proudly walked out. Weirdly she cried when I left… No clue why 🤔
That's my situation...learning everything on my own. And different departments I work with have different expectations for how to do things which drives me insane.
I recently moved into my first leadership role and how I choose to manage people is based almost entirely on all of the leaders I’ve had in the past. I’ve had a few great bosses, but more average to terrible. Good bosses treat you like a human being with a life outside of work, have above average social skills, respected people regardless of their position, and can step in to help out when needed. The bosses I hated were the ones who didn’t bother to train, never got their hands dirty, always sounded like they were reading a script, and expected everyone from part time students to full time working parents to have their lives revolve around their job. No thanks!
My worst job was working nighttime shift ugh I would be so sad not being able to see the sunset come down . Thank god I’m Blessed and not working there anymore .
Associates Financial Services. The manager was a total psychopath. I lasted 6 months and was the most senior member of the staff when I walked. I quit very flamboyantly.
@@amberino00 He was on this power trip and used his (self imagined) status to belittle and intimidate his staff. He was also sleeping with one of his subordinates (who got fed up and quit right before me).
Worst job was working retail at a Cracker Barrel because of the awful managers and customers. Runner up was being a grocery bagger because we didnt have a wage and only got paid in tips 😩
1:31 a manager once asked me to do that. I told her nope, if I'm clocking out I'm smoking a bowl in my car and heading home. She never asked me to do that bullshit again
My worst job was with a manager that was obsessively jealous of me and asked the male staff if they thought I was attractive. After they said yes she made my life living hell
my worst job was a retail job. i had to stand up on a ladder carrying heavy boxes with stock while still serving customers who would come over and ask me where shit is, or get mad at me.
Working at a college bookstore. Y'all nursing students are mean! It's not the part-time employees' fault that the store doesn't have all 20 of your books! They always used to verbally attack me every single day
The mention of Jimmy Johns... also my worst job BY FAR. My manager actually asked one day why no women ever stayed and I said straight up "They probably can't handle the constant sexual harassment and abuse." Yet, I stayed there for 1.5 years. JJs will hire ANYONE and you get paid nothing. Everyone was drunk or high. While working there I was threatened with knives, massaged against my will while talking to customers, was grabbed constantly, threatened to be raped and murdered. Not even gonna mention the verbal abuse that was hurled at me or the wild food safety and ethics codes that were violated. They hired violent ex-cons (like people released for assault and sexual crimes) to work alongside me, a 20 yo young woman. Truthfully, it was the Catholic frat boys that did most of the awful shit tho. At one point I did stand up for myself and my manager said "she can't take a joke" and then I was ignored/given the silent treatment for weeks. I could go on and on. I was young and naive and the location was convenient. I thought it was tolerable since I was using heavy drugs at the time but eventually, upon getting sober, I quit. My father actually wanted me to sue the company upon leaving since I had dates and times for a lot of the occurrences but I was just so exhausted by that point. Every time I walked by that store on my way to work or school I would feel sick so I had to change my walking route. Overall, the experience taught me about how to handle myself and stand up for myself but at the time I'd never experienced such brutal and consistent abuse to that magnitude. Its been seven years since I left and im still scarred. Bless her for leaving Jimmy John's that's all I'm gonna say. That company and its owner can go straight to hell.
My worst job was babysitting a young lady. She had been fed by a tube in her belly for a long time and was pretty miserable, was mostly non verbal and had developmental and physical disabilities, so was going through a lot. She would get diarrhea, cry all the time, and would hit me because she was miserable, it.was pretty sad. Her mom.would teach piano lessons upstairs and would come down constantly because she was crying periodically due to discomfort, which made me feel micromanaged. And I got yelled at because her hat fell off on a walk. I "got busy" after that and didn't come back for babysitting.
I think people have the wrong idea about what a dream job is. It's not a job that you enjoy every moment, it's not a job that you can't wait to get to the moment you wake up, not a job you hate to leave. In most jobs whether you like them or not, there are moments that you can feel like you don't want to be there. And there are also moments that inspire you to be a better person. A dream job can still give you moments when you question if it's worth it for you to do it. You will have moments which make you wanna cry yourself to sleep. And yet it's also a job that gives you the most amount of satisfaction and a sense that your life is ultimately more fulfilling by doing it. That's your dream job.
The girl working at planned parenthood who got water and spit thrown on her I'd like to hear more about her experience. Like planned parenthood does more than abortion... They help with safe sex, safe pregnancies, hormone therapy, ect...
My worst job was working for a company that ran group residence homes for adults with developmental disabilities as well as vocational training for them. Could have been a great job, but there were a number of toxic members within leadership that made it terrible. My direct supervisor’s idea of leadership was sneaking around and trying to catch people doing things they shouldn’t or not doing things they were supposed to and then writing them up. The company president was a lawyer who was good at fundraising but was visibly uncomfortable around special needs people. One of the supervisors at their vocational training center was all about running to the boss the moment someone made a mistake (real or just imagined in her mind) and advance her own position by stabbing people in the back. I got little to no support in my job there and when they fired me two of three reasons were total BS and one was only partly true. The only time I’ve been glad to get fired. I was only there for as long as I was due to having trouble finding a better job
1:05 lol I literally do that as volunteer work because working around horses is awesome. And the poop does have a smell, but it’s not even comparable to the smell of people’s shit and other bodily fluids you may not even know you have (speaking from the experience of working at a nursing home). If you like horses you literally grow to like the smell, and yeah that sounds weird but if you don’t like a thing, don’t work in a place that centers around that thing
Good timing! I just got my first job in retail and it's nine hours standing and walking. I don't hate what I do but the fact that we can't sit, my feet can't do it, I have to think of ways to hide and seat, like in the elevator, in the fitting room or the bathroom. I don't know if I can do this even if it's just a month
Had to check out the Chuck E. Cheese... There was right away a slogan: "Give us your best and we’ll give you ours". Maybe it should be "Give us your money and we don't give a ****". 😂😁
Retail, backroom, I was the person who put the security clips on the clothing and also hung up the clothing on the hangers/racks. People. Please. Please always wash your clothing after you buy it from ANY store. The store I worked at is a large retailer throughout the USA and when I tell you that I opened up 50 boxes of bug covered clothing every single day to process I fucking mean it. Bugs, all over the clothing. Dead bugs, live bugs, dirt, dust, just outright disgusting. Please wash your clothing after you buy it. My hands were always a dark brown after my shifts were over. It was horrendous.
For me, it’s my old job in a grocery store, it left me with an eating disorder 😙✌🏼 Just the crazy irregular hours and giving you only 15 minute breaks during a 5,5 hour work day (including walking to the canteen and the time to pee) gave me so much stress about eating/ unable to eat, i’m now recieving treatment
Unfortunately the 15 min break for a 5.5 hour shift is the law. No lunch breaks until hour 6. Sorry to hear about the ED though :/ it’s definitely a struggle to get on a routine when your job is not on a regular schedule.
@@Yourfriendmegan yess it sucks 😭 unfortunately my job knew that all too well. They were very understaffed so they gave people as many 3,5 or 5,5 shifts as not to have to give people breaks
i can’t believe more people don’t talk about how fucked your eating habits get if you work a job with limited breaks and access to food. i literally work in a coffee shop making other people food and drinks all day but i might only get to eat something small in 8 hours and it makes eating at home…… very hard
My worst job was at a fast food restaurant. The GM refused to give me the availability I needed (this was highschool so I was busy and needed time off). He told me that I had to get covers for my shifts that I told him I was not available for (not time off but availability). He would have teenagers staying there cleaning until like 1 am. He hired 17 year old managers and one of which refused to give me a break during my 7 hour shift. I left 30 minutes early, and called it my break and then texted the gm saying I was done. I didn’t even put my 2 weeks in even though I’d always been good at that.
Retail, definitely. Currently working at a family friendly resort that only shuts down 1 week out of the year. Getting everyone from out of town, local, homeschool groups, senator and governor's unofficial family outings, weddings, and the usual "not paying attention to their kids cause it's their holiday too" type of people. Lol send help.
I'll have to give a shout out to NIKE for giving me the experience of worst job ever (lasted one shift). Making billions but yet paying me a meager $9 to absolutely slave for them in one of their major warehouses. Shift was a 12 hour day with one 45 minute break. Any need to get a drink, take a piss, etc. was timed and you better be heading straight for the restroom and back. Standing up all day absolutely destroying your body hauling heavy pallets across a massive warehouse with a damn pallet jack instead of a forklift or stock picker (work smarter not harder but apparently not). Each box was weighing 75+ and you're removing these things off a belt line stacking them on the pallet until their 12+ deep, hauling the heavy pallet, dragging the pallet jack back, and repeating the process at insane speeds with no breaks minus the lunch. Yeah...no thanks NIKE!
Im so sorry that happened to you, and 9 dollars per hour for all that ??!! Its crazzzy and they billions again BILLIONS of dollars each year. They made $47B this year. Again, sorry you went through all that for a measely $9 an hr common coporates 🙄🙄😒😒
@@scotthearts9634 That's what shocked me the most, the fact that this company basically prints money but yet feels good parting ways with a pathetic $9 knowing full well the work was physically insane.
“I had to get legal help to get out of that situation. It worked out just fine.”💰 good for you girl, lmfaooo. 2:27
that smile too though
My worst job so far has been working night shift in the hospital. 7pm until 7:30 am. The hours made it difficult to be a member of society.
What happened?!
My friend has a schedule like this, I haven’t seen them in months 😅
Lol I used to love this
Right!!! The overnight shift is not as easy as people think. You’re literally living the opposite way everyone else is.
You’re still a member of society regardless. It’s all in your head
I’m surprised no one said Call Center. That’s a job straight from hell
Those are outsourced nowadays. It's much cheaper to hire a call center from India or Philippines than US\EU one.
@@mtgmac1 there's still plenty of call centers in the usa, and they still suck powerfully to work at
I agree still doing it
This is very accurate. People are insane and the company is a dumpster fire
Totally
cut should make a keep it 100 where they ask everyone how they imagine their future
I know right..?? Everyone wants financial freedom or doing what they love 😞😞 no one wants to work at a toxic/shitty job 😓😓
they did that already but it was specifically with teenagers
With the *climate crisis*

As an introvert, working in a cubicle for 8 hours and not talking to another human being sounds amazing ❤
it sounds like a dream
As an introvert myself, working from home since Covid hit, I have to say that it's been fantastic since then. Wouldn't want to go back to the office.
It does, truly. Except for the cubicle part. Office culture is..so stultifying. Would rather my own home.

My worst job was bagging groceries at a retail store. Their message was basically to step up you need to have no life except for the store, and to advance you need to step on others. And the customer? Always right. No matter what, like return food a year old covered in mold and they got a full refund no matter what
aldi? lol
@@hannahwood1384 lol I wish, they paid better.
Publix ?
@@britt1953 dead on. You worked there too?
Sounds like many industries, they all want you to give your soul to the job while getting nothing in return compared to that sacrifice. To advance you will need to step on others, suck up, and give up even more of your soul/morals. Then lastly...their source of revenue is always right even when dead wrong.
My worst job was working at a stadium and unfortunately was my first job too. What was so bad about a stadium you may think? Well, when your an 18 year old girl working in the most expensive area in the stadium with fresh A/C, VIP and other perks, I had to deal with pervs, drunks, from not only the people but employees as well, it was a bit terrifying esp from employees. I was a ticket taker at that so trying to keep people from entering unless they had a ticket was too much for me, so I left after 2 months.
Being a women in a job with alcohol is always fucking awful. Fuck the patriarchy. I'm sorry you went through that.
@@DA-js7xz I get this. I put up with it a bit during night shifts/special occasions and some drunk men shit/piss anywhere:( My mom deals with the Good Old Boys Club as a remote online worker and her old job where a boss would take her work as his own.
I’m so sorry you had that experience but its crazy to me that I had a super similar situation. I worked as a bar manager for the suites of a football stadium at 18. I absolutely loved it tho
My worst job experience was when I found out my boss was recording me in the washroom lolololol
No way omg
Ew
Yeah you win 🫥
WHAT omfg you win
I really hope you got the police involved with that!
My worst job was at a grocery store. I've worked at a few grocery stores, it was never a dream career but it was fine, except this one place. The managers kept getting replaced and each one was more psychotic than the last. One banned employees from shopping at the store after our shifts because it "looked bad" for some reason. Another got rid of breaks. Once I had the audacity to ask to go to the bathroom during a nine hour shift and a male employee followed me to the women's bathroom to make sure I was actually just going to the bathroom. We had to line up and get patted down at the end of our shift every day to make sure we weren't stealing.
We were only allowed to drink water out of cups from the cafeteria which were the size of a shit glass, and since we stopped getting breaks we stopped getting water. Obviously unstable customers were blamed on us. I once got written up for not smiling wide enough. You literally couldn't ask for a day off, I once again got written up for not coming in on a day I told them months in advance I wasn't coming in for. If the store was closed a holiday you had to come in on one of your days off to make up for it, same for if you called in sick. We did get two weeks vacation time but you couldn't choose when it was and weren't told when it was until I week before it happened.
This was at a major UK supermarket chain. I was only living in the UK temporarily so I don't know if that kind of insanity is normal there or if the particular location I was at was just run by psychopaths but I literally felt like I had been freed from prison the day I left that job.
That's so horrible. I'm sorry you worked in a place like that.
lol, isn't it a good thing that the employees buy at the same store??
My worst job was working in fast food. The manager was nice and very understanding while the ones below her were not the best. The customers were awful and that’s the only reason why I quit because I couldn’t handle getting disrespected by them and not having management stick up for me when the customers were clearly in the wrong.
I worked fast food for a day. They trained me for 30 mins on three different tasks(!!!!!!), and my first individual task? Drive thru. I didn't know the screens yet, knew maybe 4 items on the menu, and they put me on a shitty headset with some pothead on the other end, listing off 10 different items, adding customizations. Never looked back.
@@rachel5399 😂 bra one day is absurd
@@xojordo that one day was absurd lmao. Everyone was so insanely incompetent at answering questions, too. Half of my day was thrown on the register, where you pay for and receive your food, and luckily I did okay because I was by myself. By myself within my second hour! At this point, I knew maybe three people's names?? They were just like, "oh yeah, Jeff is leaving early today, so you'll be over there for the rest of the day." I also almost slipped on the greasy ass floors like 4 times. How anyone works more than a week in one of those hell holes, is beyond me. I seriously commend them, and I can see why most of my coworkers looked high, because dealing with that shit sober? Jfc.
Piggly Wiggly was my worst job. I had people going off on me about the prices when I was just a cashier and I was called the N-word quite often when customers didn’t get their way. I got in trouble because a customer threw coins at me. The manager told me I should have called for him but he was looking dead at me when the customer was yelling. Never again! It was during HS.
No one should go through that! I’m sorry to hear you went through that!
Wow that’s hella messed up
WTAF
That’s disgusting.
In Georgia?
My dream job is having an income and doing the hobbies I enjoy.
Honestly this. I just want to do something mildly interesting I can get through while listening to podcasts, make enough to enjoy vacation but not be in something so cutthroat I can never relax on vacation, and have enough extra for hobbies. I don't need to reach a pinnacle of a career ladder, work life balance is the sweet spot
Apparently I had a great manager during my sales career. If the bathroom literally got blown up and $h!t everywhere he told us not to worry and cleaned it up himself. Shout out to you, Chris!
Had an abusive job where i used to go in and the manager would scream at me at the top of his lungs. I used to go home and cry everyday. He used to call me an idiot and called my coworker a "little btch".
Wtf isn’t that illegal
@@eenchantress5113 I don’t think it’s illegal. Managers are able to yell and insult employees without getting in trouble. I know because I’ve dealt with plenty of managers like this.
My worst job was being a prison inmate and getting paid pennies. Slave labor in the prison system!
Why do they do it? Do they get time reductions or smth for the penny/slave work?
Depends on the crime you did to deserve my sympathies. Domestic abuse and rape, you shouldn't even be given pennies.
@@cristian-bull goes back over a century. Easy labour with the promise that it helps with reform (it doesn't).
Work is therapeutic. Prisoners need to be doing something all day. If you were paid nothing to build houses all day in prison, you would be way ahead when you got out. There is no talk therapy, only work therapy.
The worst job I ever had was at Dollar General. I had a cool manager and coworkers. The company itself is terrible. They treated the employees as thieves, we were always a skeleton crew and we never had enough time to stock the shelves. They only paid minimum wage as well. If you wanted a raise, you basically had to be a key holder or something. Fuck that place. Look at all the tick toks that are being made about it.
One of my friends said he was going to give his boss a card that said sorry for your loss as his resignation letter. Best thing I’ve ever heard. 😂
Worst job I've ever had hands down 462 chancellor avenue night shift at wendys. Ever had a job that had a rat epidemic, drug dealing epidemic and prostitution epidemic all in one year? I have. Toxic managers, wage theft, "you don't get breaks", sexual harassment, straight up breaking the law- I could write an entire 11 season tv show about what went on at that restaurant.
I worked in kitchens for many years and it's a difficult industry but it wasn't the worst. Most people I worked with there were great. No, the worst was working at a convenience store. And it was the worst because you then realize how shitty, rude, disgusting and incompetent about 1/3 of the population is. It honestly made me lose faith in humanity. Good luck to everyone entering that World or working any customer service job. Know that you are worth it and that no, the customer isn't always right.
4:25 . “That persons going to hell *cackles*” 💀
I think if you ever worked in retail you become the humblest customer.
my worst job is working at a dealership where my boss is verbally abusive towards you and screams in your face. but also cheats on his wife with the other manager in the room.
🤮
"Do you believe in having a dream job?"
Nope, because I do not dream about labor.
Chuck E. Cheese gonna sue cut now lol.
It's a tie between telephone sales and cleaning in an old folks home.
working at panera was absolutely horrible. my first shift i had to clean my manager’s diarrhea off the toilet and the restaurant wasn’t even open to the public yet
WTF
What da' hell!!?? 🤮🤢🤢
I LOVEEEEE that two people were wearing Derek Shepherds “ it’s a beautiful day to save lives”
Another episode with the best job they ever had
Never really had a job before but I've heard of a place who needed an eighteen year old with at least twenty years experience.
Lmao need experience starting in the womb
I've applied to server jobs who want me to have 6+ years of experience. I've served before, but 6 years?? 6 years ago I wasn't able to vote. You don't need 6 years or serving to be a good server lmao.
my worst job was when i worked at a local vegan juice and snack shop mid-pandemic. i was “fired” on day 3 or so, i had wanted to work there because the folks seemed nice and they hired me on the spot, although there were a lot of red flags i failed to notice bc i’d never worked before and i really wanted to work. my coworkers would constantly ignore my questions and would tell me things about my shoes / phone or hairnet very rudely. the first day after work when my mom asked me how it went i cried in her arms for 30 minutes and couldn’t stop crying. nevertheless i showed up for work the next day bc i didn’t want to be a quitter. the manager failed to train me properly and probably spent less than 30 mins training me and she had other people try to train me but they would get annoyed that i was new and would ignore me my whole 7 hour shift. i had to deal with rude customers calling me degrading and offensive things, i had to deal with mean coworkers and it was just awful not to mention how unsanitary the whole thing was, no gloves were properly worn, dead cockroaches in the food preparing tables etc. etc. i was on my feet for HOURS and could only take 1 10 minute break secretly, it was the worst place i have ever worked at and when i was fired i entered the worst depression i could’ve ever had, i felt at my lowest point, my mental health was terrible, thankfully 2 years later i have healed from that experience and i now work at my university and my coworkers are patient, understanding and kind to me w/ in my first month working ❤ i just hope anyone who wants to start working has a better first job experience than i had ❤
Siiiiis I'm soooo sorry you went through that, screw these people for not training you properly, they should shut down.
💀💀 uhh anyways
Aww I’m happy for you. Man I thought I was sensitive with coworkers not liking me. It just gives me anxiety like I’m very introverted so I just stop asking questions to not piss ppl off😭
@@eenchantress5113 bro same lol
I’m happy it all worked out for you eventually!!
I feel really bad for the woman who worked at a basketball camp and had to clean up after teenage boys :(
Watching this after recently being fired is therapy
I was a waitress at a Japanese Steakhouse years ago, and we were forced to "tip out" our cooks and bussers based on our sales at the end of the day. Some days I would walk home with only $4 in my pocket after a long shift. Never again....
All jobs I've ever had were exhausting...
Funnily enough, none of them mentioned the military. Which comes to teach you that talking with people is by far worse than shooting in their general direction.
The girl at 4:55 sounds EXACTLY like Selena Gomez lol
Omg she does😭that’s trippy
Finally someone confirming the Chuck E. Cheese „conspiracy“ that they recycle their pizza!! 😂
I'm 31 and have worked for over 25 companies (moved a lot, had 2-3 jobs, seasonal, etc) and had a boss that caused me to develop alopecia from extreme stress. I felt like I couldn't quit because it was difficult to find this job but eventually I left.
For context I’m 5”2 and I have a larger chest. I worked at a local Mom&Pop diner and because it’s been there for 50+ years a large portion of our customers were senior citizens so a good majority of my older male customers wouldn’t even make eye contact with me they would just stare at my chest and make comments about how I should “smile more” ugh
Fuckin' creeps 🙄🙄😒😒 hope your well and good! I apologize for my fellow man! Hope no one tried anythin' and your 100% sound!
ALL of the jobs I've ever had. I hate working. It depresses me when I realize that I'm doing something for money.
Worst job was the gas station 🤣⛽! Especially the graveyard shift.
Let's all hope these people get the jobs they want to do in the future as a career!
I love Jordan Peterson :))
Worst job I ever had working in a restaurant hated it absolutely hated it.
deadass a boss can make or break a job
For real
Fax, happened at my 2nd job
3:30 girl thats my dream job let me know the details i get to talk to no one?!😅
My worst job by far was a call center. it felt so soul-sucking lol
My worst job was at a financial advisor company. They didn’t train me much. So if I messed up, it was apparently my fault (you know, the stuff I didn’t get trained on). My boss was a narcissistic, insensitive prick. She would yell at and belittle me. I would come home in tears. I left a month later. It was an asked to be resigned thing… proudly walked out. Weirdly she cried when I left… No clue why 🤔
That's my situation...learning everything on my own. And different departments I work with have different expectations for how to do things which drives me insane.
I recently moved into my first leadership role and how I choose to manage people is based almost entirely on all of the leaders I’ve had in the past. I’ve had a few great bosses, but more average to terrible. Good bosses treat you like a human being with a life outside of work, have above average social skills, respected people regardless of their position, and can step in to help out when needed. The bosses I hated were the ones who didn’t bother to train, never got their hands dirty, always sounded like they were reading a script, and expected everyone from part time students to full time working parents to have their lives revolve around their job. No thanks!
My worst job was working nighttime shift ugh I would be so sad not being able to see the sunset come down . Thank god I’m
Blessed and not working there anymore .
Associates Financial Services. The manager was a total psychopath. I lasted 6 months and was the most senior member of the staff when I walked. I quit very flamboyantly.
Good for you man!!
how were they a psychopath
@@amberino00 He was on this power trip and used his (self imagined) status to belittle and intimidate his staff. He was also sleeping with one of his subordinates (who got fed up and quit right before me).
They're naming companies in this video. And I think that is pretty beautiful.
Bruh did they get high before this, the girl that said she needed help to leave was super smiley
You gotta smile through the pain sometimes
“working at a bar called crackheads”lmaoooooo
2:47 she basically said my experience in retail
Worst job was working retail at a Cracker Barrel because of the awful managers and customers. Runner up was being a grocery bagger because we didnt have a wage and only got paid in tips 😩
Can't believe getting paid in tips is legal in some countries.
Wow! Baggers aren't allowed to even take tips here, it's just an hourly wage job like any other retail role.
Stocking shelves from 12am-8:30am
Denny's was hands down the worst place i've ever worked
Never working in customer service ever again
I am with the people who have never had a job they didn't like. I have had four jobs since '99, and am grateful for all the experiences!
amazon is my worst job and I currently work here. really hate it but i know I won’t be here forever.
I am surprised that Amazon didn’t come up. I have heard that it is 1923 at Amazon.
1:31 a manager once asked me to do that. I told her nope, if I'm clocking out I'm smoking a bowl in my car and heading home. She never asked me to do that bullshit again
Ikr?
It's not like it's their fault, but ppl should know better than to allow a boss to do illegal shit like that
My worst job was with a manager that was obsessively jealous of me and asked the male staff if they thought I was attractive. After they said yes she made my life living hell
Worst job was working in a hospital. Overworked and underpaid.
These experiences are why we need many more unions.
my worst job was a retail job. i had to stand up on a ladder carrying heavy boxes with stock while still serving customers who would come over and ask me where shit is, or get mad at me.
shawdy spilled all the tea about Chucky E Cheese.
Working at a college bookstore. Y'all nursing students are mean! It's not the part-time employees' fault that the store doesn't have all 20 of your books! They always used to verbally attack me every single day
The mention of Jimmy Johns... also my worst job BY FAR. My manager actually asked one day why no women ever stayed and I said straight up "They probably can't handle the constant sexual harassment and abuse." Yet, I stayed there for 1.5 years. JJs will hire ANYONE and you get paid nothing. Everyone was drunk or high. While working there I was threatened with knives, massaged against my will while talking to customers, was grabbed constantly, threatened to be raped and murdered. Not even gonna mention the verbal abuse that was hurled at me or the wild food safety and ethics codes that were violated. They hired violent ex-cons (like people released for assault and sexual crimes) to work alongside me, a 20 yo young woman. Truthfully, it was the Catholic frat boys that did most of the awful shit tho. At one point I did stand up for myself and my manager said "she can't take a joke" and then I was ignored/given the silent treatment for weeks. I could go on and on. I was young and naive and the location was convenient. I thought it was tolerable since I was using heavy drugs at the time but eventually, upon getting sober, I quit. My father actually wanted me to sue the company upon leaving since I had dates and times for a lot of the occurrences but I was just so exhausted by that point. Every time I walked by that store on my way to work or school I would feel sick so I had to change my walking route. Overall, the experience taught me about how to handle myself and stand up for myself but at the time I'd never experienced such brutal and consistent abuse to that magnitude. Its been seven years since I left and im still scarred. Bless her for leaving Jimmy John's that's all I'm gonna say. That company and its owner can go straight to hell.
My worst job was babysitting a young lady. She had been fed by a tube in her belly for a long time and was pretty miserable, was mostly non verbal and had developmental and physical disabilities, so was going through a lot. She would get diarrhea, cry all the time, and would hit me because she was miserable, it.was pretty sad. Her mom.would teach piano lessons upstairs and would come down constantly because she was crying periodically due to discomfort, which made me feel micromanaged. And I got yelled at because her hat fell off on a walk. I "got busy" after that and didn't come back for babysitting.
A factory with no air conditioning in the middle of Summer in Louisiana. 12 hour shift standing on concrete.
"Figure it out, but we're going to yell at you if you don't get it right." - That's like every job I've had within the last year. LOL
my boss cancelled my health insurance and kept taking it out of my pay, twice.
I think people have the wrong idea about what a dream job is. It's not a job that you enjoy every moment, it's not a job that you can't wait to get to the moment you wake up, not a job you hate to leave.
In most jobs whether you like them or not, there are moments that you can feel like you don't want to be there. And there are also moments that inspire you to be a better person. A dream job can still give you moments when you question if it's worth it for you to do it. You will have moments which make you wanna cry yourself to sleep. And yet it's also a job that gives you the most amount of satisfaction and a sense that your life is ultimately more fulfilling by doing it. That's your dream job.

Lifeguarding?? WHAT? That was literally the best time of my life. Sis must have been lifeguarding a swamp
My worst job was working for a company that ran group residence homes for adults with developmental disabilities as well as vocational training for them. Could have been a great job, but there were a number of toxic members within leadership that made it terrible. My direct supervisor’s idea of leadership was sneaking around and trying to catch people doing things they shouldn’t or not doing things they were supposed to and then writing them up. The company president was a lawyer who was good at fundraising but was visibly uncomfortable around special needs people. One of the supervisors at their vocational training center was all about running to the boss the moment someone made a mistake (real or just imagined in her mind) and advance her own position by stabbing people in the back. I got little to no support in my job there and when they fired me two of three reasons were total BS and one was only partly true. The only time I’ve been glad to get fired. I was only there for as long as I was due to having trouble finding a better job
Recruiting at a Staffing Agency was brutal.
1:05 lol I literally do that as volunteer work because working around horses is awesome. And the poop does have a smell, but it’s not even comparable to the smell of people’s shit and other bodily fluids you may not even know you have (speaking from the experience of working at a nursing home). If you like horses you literally grow to like the smell, and yeah that sounds weird but if you don’t like a thing, don’t work in a place that centers around that thing
it's a toss up between cleaning pigeon shit and working at a bakery with a really stressed manager
I hated most of my jobs. But, I also hate working in general
Good timing! I just got my first job in retail and it's nine hours standing and walking. I don't hate what I do but the fact that we can't sit, my feet can't do it, I have to think of ways to hide and seat, like in the elevator, in the fitting room or the bathroom. I don't know if I can do this even if it's just a month
Hotels were always the worst. Low pay, long and inconsistent hours, terrible customers and bosses. Very depressing!
Had to check out the Chuck E. Cheese... There was right away a slogan: "Give us your best and we’ll give you ours".
Maybe it should be "Give us your money and we don't give a ****". 😂😁
Working at a restaurant people are the worst.
Retail, backroom, I was the person who put the security clips on the clothing and also hung up the clothing on the hangers/racks. People. Please. Please always wash your clothing after you buy it from ANY store. The store I worked at is a large retailer throughout the USA and when I tell you that I opened up 50 boxes of bug covered clothing every single day to process I fucking mean it. Bugs, all over the clothing. Dead bugs, live bugs, dirt, dust, just outright disgusting. Please wash your clothing after you buy it. My hands were always a dark brown after my shifts were over. It was horrendous.
For me, it’s my old job in a grocery store, it left me with an eating disorder 😙✌🏼 Just the crazy irregular hours and giving you only 15 minute breaks during a 5,5 hour work day (including walking to the canteen and the time to pee) gave me so much stress about eating/ unable to eat, i’m now recieving treatment
Unfortunately the 15 min break for a 5.5 hour shift is the law. No lunch breaks until hour 6. Sorry to hear about the ED though :/ it’s definitely a struggle to get on a routine when your job is not on a regular schedule.
@@Yourfriendmegan yess it sucks
😭 unfortunately my job knew that all too well. They were very understaffed so they gave people as many 3,5 or 5,5 shifts as not to have to give people breaks
i can’t believe more people don’t talk about how fucked your eating habits get if you work a job with limited breaks and access to food. i literally work in a coffee shop making other people food and drinks all day but i might only get to eat something small in 8 hours and it makes eating at home…… very hard
pay is the last reason people quite, most people don't quite jobs they quite managers
My worst job was at a fast food restaurant. The GM refused to give me the availability I needed (this was highschool so I was busy and needed time off). He told me that I had to get covers for my shifts that I told him I was not available for (not time off but availability). He would have teenagers staying there cleaning until like 1 am. He hired 17 year old managers and one of which refused to give me a break during my 7 hour shift. I left 30 minutes early, and called it my break and then texted the gm saying I was done. I didn’t even put my 2 weeks in even though I’d always been good at that.
I’m suprised Amazon wasn’t on the list
Retail, definitely.
Currently working at a family friendly resort that only shuts down 1 week out of the year. Getting everyone from out of town, local, homeschool groups, senator and governor's unofficial family outings, weddings, and the usual "not paying attention to their kids cause it's their holiday too" type of people.
Lol send help.
I'll have to give a shout out to NIKE for giving me the experience of worst job ever (lasted one shift). Making billions but yet paying me a meager $9 to absolutely slave for them in one of their major warehouses. Shift was a 12 hour day with one 45 minute break. Any need to get a drink, take a piss, etc. was timed and you better be heading straight for the restroom and back.
Standing up all day absolutely destroying your body hauling heavy pallets across a massive warehouse with a damn pallet jack instead of a forklift or stock picker (work smarter not harder but apparently not). Each box was weighing 75+ and you're removing these things off a belt line stacking them on the pallet until their 12+ deep, hauling the heavy pallet, dragging the pallet jack back, and repeating the process at insane speeds with no breaks minus the lunch.
Yeah...no thanks NIKE!
Im so sorry that happened to you, and 9 dollars per hour for all that ??!! Its crazzzy and they billions again BILLIONS of dollars each year. They made $47B this year. Again, sorry you went through all that for a measely $9 an hr common coporates 🙄🙄😒😒
@@scotthearts9634 That's what shocked me the most, the fact that this company basically prints money but yet feels good parting ways with a pathetic $9 knowing full well the work was physically insane.
