service industry FOH staff. $.25 above Texas minimum wage

completely miserable but made me appreciate the value of a dollar... if I were a plebe who couldn't think for himself.

Formal dining waiter in high school serving old rich people. Job was actually OK, we got free expensive food at the end of the night (prime rib, steak, etc.) and I worked with a bunch of my friends from school.

no drivethru and the managers were pretty cool so not too bad

>> No.192890

McDonalds. I don't think it would have been so terrible, except the location was going through a lot of changes, and I was part of a big wave of new hires, so I barely got any hours. All the managers contradicted each other, and I was almost never taught anything.

Housekeeper at an upscale ocean-side inn. Job was shit, but made $9.50/hr + tips, and got half off all food in the pub (which was fucking delicious).

Did it for a year before I moved, would never do again.

Worked in an IT firm as a "supporter". Job description: Look for profiles online and enter them in our database. In fact I ran errands and did manual labour (build IKEA stuff) while getting 15 bucks an hour. Also, free ice cream in the fridge. I had worse work since.

When I was a child, we always went to this water park with nothing but college girls as lifegaurds. I'd always splash them when going around on the lazy river and would rub my face in their boobs when they hugged. I was like 8 and loved every second of it. Now I can't even get a girl to text me.

cashier at a grocery store, the only thing I took away from that place was that the majority of human beings are horrible people and that I have no remorse for ripping them off in the future

Ever had fat black women calling you racist when you can't accept their declined credit card or food stamps with not enough on the balance? I see these people all the time when I wait in line at Kroger. The manager always apologizes and gives them the rest for free. Scum.

When I was 12 I remember chatting up a bunch of older women. I remember at one point this 20 year old woman wanted to see me in person. I freaked out and it was all downhill from there.

When I was 14, I'd always sext with this 21 year old girl on school computers until I got caught. She lived in the same city and worked at Wendy's. I'd always ride by but she never knew it was me. I think she has a child now. I suck with women in real life. I never make good first impressions.

no blacks but we had tons of native women due to the store being on a native reserve. Never have I hated a race that fucking much, all they do is buy chips and pop for their fucking dinner, every single member of their families are fat and drunks. And they complain when the prices are too high and eventually get all their shit for free
