Ya! My radio station job requires skill and talent...and I get paid minimum wage! GRRRR.

 

[Kommie]

i used to be a server(waiter), where i would "bootleg" food for higher tips i.e I will give you this if you give me (1/2 cost) in cash right now! I started out trying to get fired, but ended up making a crapload of money. It was a dream come true!

Are you an on air personality? You seem like you'd be pretty good at that sort of thing.

I would, but the format (smooth jazz) kind of requires me to stay within certain boundaries...so yeah.

30 degrees...farehneit? Well its -30 degrees celcius here (Edmonton Alberta, Canada) I'm working at a water treatment plant as a Chemical Engineer, doing "research" and "experiments" all day long, sometimes its fun, trying new technology and stuff, 50% of the time I just sit and surf the web. No way I'm going outside anytime soon, maybe in like 4 months or so, then we'll see, I've had to plug my car in for the past two weeks now or it wouldn't even want to start...but I love skiing, so one must make sacrifices for the things we love.

You guys get paid per week? That's fun.

I'd much prefer that...Dealing with customers becomes a pain after a while. Especially since you're expected to basically forget your rights as a human being. The customer is always right :X Whoever thought of that was an idiot. I decided last week that if in fact the customer by some chance was wrong, I'd let them know it...worked pretty well. I went home quite satisfied, instead of annoyed at people who I might never see again.

I don't particually like the managers either, largely because they have done nothing which makes me want to stay at the shop. They have no motivational skills what-so-ever beyond primitive slave driving techniques. They expect you to run about for them, at the speed they want as if your life depends on it. They of course live for Tesco (The store) and everything is about Tesco, for some reason they assume the same of me...the art student working Saturdays :| They try to spur me on saying it will be good for the store, and if I don't do overtime on a certain day then the store might lose out (Thats how they tried to get me to work on Christmas eve...Plebs).

I'd better stop now because if I really get started, I'l be typing all night...


I'm sure you've guess by now, that I have a job £5 an hour :x But I make money other ways...something that interestingly my manager doesn't like. He thinks I'm somehow betraying him and, yes, the store.

 

[h00dlum]

im unemployed and bored..

 

[Fishlore]

I develop software for a telecommunications company.

I understand... so very well... i only run that store sometimes (read: most of its opening hours) but i also work at the busy store and cop so much shit... i too have discovered its much more satisfying to let them know that there actually wrong and that i dont care for them one bit.

Oooo! Nasty. I ****ing hate supermarkets. I worked at Sainsbury's for a year. I never had any problems with managers though, they was cool, except for the store manager and a few underneath him...they was'nt cool. My boss (who was like 25, would roll in half pissed...late) never give me a hard time which i was grateful for, because i hated everything about the job...i'd of probably walked out otherwise.

I used to stack shelf's on fresh foods aisles and i hated how fragile old women would walk right infront of you at the last second while your dragging a 400kg rollpalet >.< Or how customers would complain about things you just don't need to complain about, like how you have your shirt untucked or your shoes are'nt reflective, or how something really horrible isn't on the shelf...ahh man, the list goes on and on. This is no lie, we had one local woman who would properly start crying if you didn't have something in stock right infront of you...she was a nutter!.

too lazy to work for mcdonalds or any other graft jobs

 

[PowerMetalRocker]

I work for EMC as my co-op job. I go to school (I'm a senior in highschool) one week and the next week I work for a week. I make about $300 after taxes every other week. Its not bad I just help out my boss when he needs it but I have plenty of time to surf the net or read or do homework.

 

[Parrot of doom]

I work as a television cameraman. I earn between £35000 - £45000 per year.

However, the taxman is not my friend
