Its worse, im essentially a wageslave 24/7 and my job as a combat engineer means we get smoked for the stupidest shit because "muh combat arms" and "muh engineer pride"

Dont get me wrong, i love the army and people ive met, but man sometimes the bullshit just never ends, and theres no human resources. If you dont agree with the way your sergeant does things you can try to go above him, but youll usually get told that "you dont have to like it, hes your nco, do what he says"

All in all you just have to embrace the suck. Its not your traditional workplace, which means things can either suck or be super fucking awesome. Health department and osha are practically nonexistant, so you can get stuck with range bathrooms tgat havent been cleaned in 5 years along with raw chicken from the dfac (pic related) or you can get stuck doing crazy fun shit like off roading humvees and combatives in the barracks

Pretty recently, I had a guy come in and order the "Jiffy" Burger. On the menu, in large letters, it warns that it is a burger with JIFFY PEANUTBUTTER and bacon, cheese, etc. In the middle of the meal, he starts screaming at me about how he is allergic to peanut butter and that we are liable to be sued. He truly believed the "JIFFY" part of the burger meant it would come out fast. I offered to take the pitcher of beer him and his partner ordered and gave him the check, in which eh then paid in cash. He kept bugging other servers, so eventually, my manager went over and argued with him for awhile. My manager handed him another bill, this time with the burger taken off, in which his drunk, retarded ass paid cash again and my manager let me keep both of his payments. Although it was but a small victory, I felt like the little guys had won for once.

I hate being a slave. This is not a meme post. Work is slavery no matter what you do, you still give your life away day by day. Who cares if my legs hurt? I've been in an office for years and it was nauseating, now I wield shit earn more but Im still a disgusting slave. Working sucks period, enjoy deluding yourself otherwise.

Sit in a tower and watch fighters and helicopters take off and land all day long. Endless coffee, bantz, and boomer war stories.

I do maintenance on public railroad company vending machines. I managed to send wrong settings with the latest firmware update and kicked all of our 450+ card reader terminals into an infinite boot loop last week... There are still about a dozen trains where people are unable to use the vending machines so now I drive around and have to reset the machines manually...
It also pays shit(16eur after tax) and it's a kinda dirty job as more than half of my days are spent digging into coffee machines looking for the modem unit to reset it manually...
