What was your worst job?
Advertisements [?]
I have two tied for first place.

One was delivering 120 Sunday papers on a Sting Ray bike for three years in JH and HS. Hot in the summer, snow and cold in the winter (New England). I had two baskets on the back of the bike, one on the front and a knapsack filled to the brim. Had to make multiple stops home to pick up more papers. All 120 had to be delivered before 8 a.m.

Equally as awful (well in retrospect, probably much worse) was working as a waitress at a summer restaurant just two buildings up from our state's most popular beach. We served literally a thousand people each day. The restaurant was owned by a family and I was the only non-family member...so it was my job to clean the latrine and men's room ever night. I still have nightmares about the stuff I saw and had to touch, even with Playtex gloves, in that room.

Yours?
