Sometimes a customer comes to where i work and we call him the "patient". Dude never tries shoes, he just says reserve me this, reserve me that and then he doesn't come back. He often comes when we are closing, he comes the last minute and is in the store for 20 minutes. But what can i do, we are supposed to have friendly customer service even when an ass hole like him comes to the store.^*AlphA*^ wrote:

Its me that arranges work experience when we have them here/used to. 15/16 year old for a week or so, I get asked all the questions and they fill their forms out to be part of their work experience folder. What I say to them is: Imagine a world where everything you want within reason depending on your pay you can have, but you get no wages (in other words take the pay out of your job & life is free(<<< totally hypothetical I know and almost unimaginable).
Would you do what you do now for no pay? I would.

Hate my job. Well, it´s not a real job, I work hither and thither. Got some serious exams this and next month, so I can´t take a regular job. Handing out flyers, donating plasma, shit like that. And the rest of the time I sit at my desk learning.
I would love to help my parents again. My dads a dental technician and I used to do his paperwork and driving. Now he´s more or less on his own. And the fucking chinese are dumping the prizes, so he gets shit for working 16 hours a fuckin day. Had a good time back then. easy job and moderate payment. We both won. Now everythingý fucked. Damn chinese. There should be some regulations avoiding the asshole-dentists to send there work into a foreign country. Even with shipping it´s way cheaper. Freakin´ chinese.

I love my job.
I´m metalworker/blacksmith and normally work in small shops and do all kind of different work.
Sure, it´s dirty, not paid very well, construction sites in the winter time suck but that´s pretty much all of the bad stuff.
Especially in small shops you get to do something different every day :
A stainless steel gate one day, a balcony steel construction the other day.
And nothing beats the spring, summer time when you go out on construction sites in shorts and a muscle shirt, getting all the looks from the girls
and having a good laugh at the guys sitting in their office on the other site of the street, sweating their asses off in in their nice suits and bowties.
(AC is a very rare thing in Germany)
It´s a very cool and satisfying feeling driving around town, seeing stuff, you know you were building with your own hands and sweat.
And yeah, EVERYBODY hates the architect !

Oh, to be fair we didn´t build that from scratch, it was restore work (meaning we ripped the whole thing apart and put it backed together with newer, stronger parts) but still, just imagine the gate without all the gold parts and the lamps and other stuff, than you have an idea how it looked like before we started working on it.

My job wouldn't suck too bad if our clientele were a tad smarter and such a pain to deal with co-workers antics. I propbably wouldn't even be posting on here if my job was going great.
I F*cking LOVE my job!
All I do is delivering pizza's all night long for a good pay for my age, plus I get tips
40+ euro on 1 night of 5 hours of which you're only driving for 2,5 hours or so, the rest is doing nothing <3

In Australia you would be hard pressed finding a job which paid less. In fact they pay less then minimum wage but get away with it by giving you a VIP card or some other equally useless benefit.
8 Euro an hour is good?Ultimatrox wrote:

And don't you also need your own car and have to pay for petrol, repairs etc out of your own money? (or is that just Australia) My cousin delivered pizzas for a while and she said after petrol and 'other' car costs she was making about $1 an hour so basically only made any money from Tips.

I was making more money working in a supermarket packing shelves then the store manager makes at McDonald's.
when I was 15 I worked at a local supermarket here, I earned something like 5 euros an hour.DrunkFace wrote:

Just started my job at B & Q yesterday.
£6:40 an hour 3-4pm - 9pm.
I have to wait 10:45 for a bus after work which I hate, but it will do before I get a car.
The jot it self I like. I work with 80% girls my age. And they are all hot... but they can't lift anything for shit. So I have to do it.
