How hard is it to steal Oxycotin from your job?

I hated being a pharmacy technician, worked at a Rite Aid for two years.

I work for an ISP now for technical support on intraweb and phoneamajig products. It's alright and pays a WHOLE lot better.

>>3114636

hard, that shit is locked up tight

>>3114636
Previous pharm tech, will also vouch for that. It's always locked up and if you get caught, you're so fucking screwed for the rest of your career and probably life when it comes to ever working in the field again.

I worked at a pharmacy (privately owned) and I loved it, but I didn't love the customers all that much. People are douchebags when they are sick. Or need refills for shit they abuse.

I was a clerk, and still in high school, but I worked there for quite a while. In a small town. So people knew who I was and figured I could help them out. Ha, hilarious. I don't like people that think they can take advantage of me.

Good pay, but only once a month, which didn't bother me, I save well.

I worked at a grocery store before that. Don't get me started... >(

Work as a cashier/technician at a place that sells lottery tickets.

Pay is terrible, hours are incredibly long, and the majority of the customers are douchebags, but very little actual work is involved, there's a TV across from me that plays all DirectTV channels, and I get free rein for 7+ hours a day to play DS or use my laptop as I please.

I go to a primary school in my lunch breaks at college and help a little boy there with Cerbral Palsy :D
Pros:
- Children are awesome, they say what they like and don't care.
- Everytime he sees me walk in and exclaims my name.
- Playing tag again :D
- Getting paid for something I'd do even if I wasn't.

Cons:
- No lunchtimes, so having to eat lunch quickly and no relaxing with friends.

Can only think of one con :)

mcdonalds

cons: fat bitches, smelly people, assholes
pros: i fist people's drinks if they're rude, i make myself an omelette every morning, i never get in trouble.

My job is none at all.

Pros: Tons of free time

Cons: No money :[

>>3114717
your job sounds awesome holy shit

>>3114620
I worked at a small fun park as a ride attendant.

Cons
I had to put up with niggers from london on day trips to the beach who would try to force their kids on rides they didnt want to go on.
I had the "my kids been let on before" even though theyre about 3 inches sort of minimum requirements.
Have to stop the ride if someone starts crying - man the fuck up 3 year old.
Most people who work there are chavs/filthy usually both.
Pros:
I got to tell stroppy adults to fuck off basically.
Free rides
Not much work in afternoons so you just sit around and chill talk to people etc.
Nothing to do during breaks other than toilet/snack.
Can play music off phones etc so long as youre watching the ride and its not too loud.
Getting hugs from retards.
Torturing people on rides.

I'm going to school for Pharm tech right now, but my real goal (think childhood dream) is to become a historian or archeologist. It's just a pipe dream because getting a history degree is very expensive and doesn't guarantee me any sort of job. Hopefully within the next few years I'll make enough money working at a pharmacy to do what I want, but If I don't move back in with my parents that is not likely to happen. Being a poorfag sucks. I've written plenty of papers on history and I have a real passion for it, but It's just impossible to make a career out of it unless you're (a) incredibly talented, or (b) have richass parents who can pay for your school.

I help my parents with their restaurant whenever I come home during the holidays, usually as a take-out bagger.

Cons:
My dad's an asshole to everyone, especially me.
Huge pressure not to screw up orders whenever peak hours roll around.
Monotonous. Seriously, it's like I'm stuck in a dimensional pocket where time slows down.

Pros:
Free food.
Free soft drinks.
Don't have to interact with customers.

>>3114795
It is :D
I never leave there unhappy, never.

I an animal care tech at a research barn

Pros
-job experience
-my boss is super nice
-we get briefings on crazy activist activity and what to do
-My animals are always happy to see me, and it's nice to do manual labor

Cons
-Getting up at 6AM on weekends
-some of the more stallions for genetic research are NASTY, the one picked up a girl (with his teeth) and threw her away so he could attack another stallion
-I smell like horse shit unless I shower

I work security at wal-mart. I guess it's kind of boring but it lets me take out my rage on niggers. if I see somebody white stealing something I don't really give a fuck (rarely happens though) but if a nigger tries that shit you better believe I'm going to be lynching that theieving nigger.

/r9k/, I work for a prominent cosmetic surgery company.

Breast Augmentation counts for 70-80% of the surgery we perform.

Ask me about my job

>>3115136
i always wondered what happens to the fake breasts when bodies are incinerated...
do they pop/explode?

>>3115171
I don't know. We put them in and chuck em out the door. We don't give a fuck about aftercare, nobody does in this industry.

Part timer at Staples here.

Cons:
- Overworked. There's never enough people working compared to how busy we are.
- You get the mix of rich entitlement whores and poor shits who complain about everything.
- We're near a Jewish community. I wouldn't hate some of them if they weren't so annoying, out of touch with the rest of society and entitlement whores.
- Back to School season. Everything about it.

Pros:
- Great staff and managers.
- Decent pay and benefits.
- Depending on how involved you are with customers, it's a good way to network.
- I don't work in the computer section :)
- Job security lol. As long as businesses need supplies, we'll still be here.

>>3115136
Do you fondle the breasts while they're knocked out?

>>3115219
That cannot be good for the environment...what are the breast implants made of? silicon and salt water?

I work at a music store owned (but not operated) by Guitar Center.

Cons:

I get paid $7.75/hour despite almost 2 years of dedicated service and a wealth of product knowledge and customer service experience.

I get treated like a peon by our corporate management.

People don't want to pay for shit. Ever. And they yell at me because they are unhappy about paying for things, like I can do something about it.

We're a fucking day-care service. Parents let their annoying kids run amok in our store, and we can't discipline them or the parents get angry.

Pros: I'm getting health benefits, steady pay, and I get a hefty discount at Guitar Center.

>>3115250
>>3115255
I don't go into the hospitals where the procedures are performed. I have observed surgery before. shit was gross.

We get sample implants which you can twist and stab and stamp on and they are tough as shit. I managed to break one once and all this gooey shit went everywhere. The implants have to be rough on the outside so they bond to the inside of your body.

Lead programmer at relatively (to my country) large telecom company.


Pros:
* software development is what I love and live for;
* lots of freedom, I don't have to report to anyone;
* decent pay;
* quite open hours.

Cons:
* we are a Microsoft shop, I adore the open source movement;
* sometimes there's too much urgent work;
* too few good developers (in company / available for hiring);
* not the best environment, I can't concentrate with all the people around.

I'm basically a painter-decorator

Pros:
-Being able to steal shit people left behind when they moved out (last week i got a watch, a ring and a crappy tv)
-When there's a lot of work the money's great
-I can more or less set my own hours
-I can drink on the job
-I meet a lot of women
-My boss can be great
-It can be good exercise

Cons:
-When there's no work the money's non-existent
-I get paint on my clothes/shoes/face/hair
-My boss can be a cunt
-If I do this for 30 years I'll still be doing exactly the same thing for exactly the same money (moral: stay in school kids)

Cold Stone fucking Creamery

-cons-
- minimum wage ($7.40 or so) even after working there for two years. In Michigan, it's legal to play minors approximately 80% of minimum wage, so there are some kids who've been working there for two years as well and are still only making about $6.20. No one has ever received a raise.
- rich prick customers. Lots of bros, hos, and rich doctors who can't speak english.
- the health questions and complaints. If you're on a diet, no, it is not a good idea to get 12 ounces of premium ice cream mixed with fudge, brownies, and rainbow sprinkles. Go away.
- shitty, shitty, shitty hours during the winter. Somewhere between 3.5 to 7 a week, on average, for each of our eight crew members.
- you come home reeking of sweetened dairy.
- you hate ice cream within two weeks.

-pros-
- if you're friendly, tips can end up being a buck or two an hour of untaxed wages.
- you get free ice cream after each shift, which is pretty nice for about a week.
- fellow employees tend to be pretty fucking awesome.
- during the winter, it's slow enough to where we spend most of our shifts just fucking around. Using cake decorating supplies and dyes to turn each other into car accident victims becomes a plausible way to kill time.

Run community computer lab at local community college (part time)

Cons:
-Shitty pay
-Worthless boss
-Clueless Coworkers
-Can get terribly boring
-Some people can be exceptionally fustrating when trying to explain how something works

Pros:
-Easy
-Flexible Hours
-People don't see what I do as a service, I do things best buy charges money for and even though its my job people treat me like i've gone out of my way to help them, and therefore i get all the benefits of doing someone a favor. I.E. Some people try and pay me, i've had people bring me movies, i've had someone try and buy me lunch, etc. Its very gradifying.

I'm unemployed since two weeks.

pros: Can sleep until noon and do whatever I like.

cons: I'm going to run out of money soon and won't be able to afoord my flat anymore. I should go and search for a nice, cozy bridge.

>>3115713
Post pics of tasty car accident victims please.

Alcoholics detoxing
Grampy has alzheimers
pee on my shoe

>>3115877
I'm afraid we didn't take pictures; cameras in the work place aren't particularly appreciated.

Walmart cart pusher, part time

Outside alone for 9 hours straight. you're a janitor, nobody wants to talk to you, ever
Most conversation is with the door greeters - ie. 70 year old cat ladies with missing fingers, or retards.
Severely understaffed
None of the equipment ever works, obviously
Working for hours in blizzards, sleet, etc.. is expected. Buy your own shovels and rock salt
No extra pay, ever, even though the physical labour gets rather extensive
Can work full time hours most weeks, also trying to get any time off even months in advance is impossible, you might as well just not show up that day (which is what most people do)
All 15 managers running around at any given time are dicks

Pros:
I get to listen to music because no one knows or cares that I'm outside.
I get some fresh air and excercise, and a nice tan in the summer
Some cool restaurants around the place

Protip: Don't work here.

Circuit City

cons: I'm losing my job in a month
customers are idiotic redneck dickwads
Managers are idiotic redneck dickwads (Ohiofaggette Btw)
The Liquidator is an idiotic redneck dickwad

Pros: my job has become painfully simple now that I don't have to process returns exchanges service repairs etc
I can be a dick to customers when they are a dick to me
I just got a new job today

Also unemployed

Pros: Absolutely EVERYTHING, except...

Cons: Running out of money

>>3115280
I worked at Daddy's Junky Music, a New England music retail chain. It sucked. They also didn't pay their sales staff nearly enough.

also a tech here, pretty much exactly what op said, but i have no qualms about stealing narcotics so that's another plus for me.

op, i would like to point out that all the other female techs i work with are fat, ugly bitches. i would like to know what you base that number on.

>>3115915
Why? Scummy work conditions?

:'( it was the best job ever

>>3115905
oh man,
Ever had a patient who kept screaming HELP ?
And constantly tried to climb out of bed (with the guardrails up) ?

When doing my clinical at a hospital there was a sitter watching over this woman. Lulzy job for sure.

I am unemployed and out of college for this semester.

My car insurance is 450 a month, my credit card is pretty much maxed out from the times i tried to avoid late fees from insurance.

Now all students get 2.5k.

Fuck.

>>3115989
Nah. There are cameras all over the store that the bosses watch us on, but they don't get suspicious if they see us working with cake decorating shit - they -do- get suspicious if they see us pulling out our own cameras or cellphones and posing for five minutes.

anyone have job suggestions for an unemployed kid with absolutely no special skills?

>>3116059
Yeah that happens fairly frequently. Most of the time I try to ignore them unless they're really in danger of hurting themselves.

>>3116091
>kid

MewtBlox58476

Mcdonalds fag here. back kitchen. Part time. Such a stereotypical job I have.

Pros
Coworkers are awesome, great guys, and the girls are hot. This completely took me off guard.
Most managers are cool dudes as well. Me and some other guys spent an hour talking to a few about Orgazmo and Kung Pow. They also know how to do their fucking jobs.
I can listen to music

Cons
Dinners are absolutely insane, this is one of the only fast food places in the area.
Closing takes like three fucking hours, cleaning is bullshit.
The fags who drive up in their SUV's five minutes before closing and get a fucking meal. Fat pieces of shit
Too many fucking things to memorize. WAY too many things.
It smells.
So typical restaurant stuff.

>>3114682
would it be difficult for lets say... someone to come in with someone elses pill cases and get them filled? or do you pay very close attention to that sort of thing

I'm an EMT.

Pros:
-You can drive however you like and at what speed you like as long as it's some kind of emergency. It's FUN.
-You have acess to some really cool substances and get even greater stuff from hospitals if you tell the nurses you need it NOW because you already used your stuff and the next emergency is waiting. They usally don't know what they are allowed to give you.
-People are in general very thankful and you walk home with 30-50$ in tips almost every day.
-When you buy some stuff during your paid work time, grab your cell phone and say "oh shit.." people always think something terrible happened you don't have to stand in line anymore.

Cons:
-Payment is shit.
-Way too many hours per week.
-Junkies will regularly try to steal benzodiazepines and similar things from your amublance, sometimes in a violent way.
-I probably had every bodily fluid that exists on my hands or clothing in the past few months.
-If a fat person gets a heart attack in a building without elevator, your back is going to hurt really bad the next few days.

Summary: Well...better than being unemployed.

>>3116229

you mean like the bottle with the label on it? i don't know how it is at other pharmacies but at mine we can't accept refills on any narcotics, the doctor has to fax it in, so anything worth taking would be impossible to get that way.

>>3116293
I've done it with a bottle of xanax before with someone elses pill case, but don't have the balls to attempt it again. I'm a male and the name on the pill case was under Amanda **** , the only reason i attempted it that one time is because i knew it was a new employee at the front.

>>3116317
would u say that i'd be able to get away with that from someone whos worked at a pharmacy for a while? or is that a definite no-go

>>3116317

xanax isn't a narcotic, so that's probably why you were able to.

>>3116333
whats considered narcotics? just opiates or something?

>>3116346

the things we keep locked up are opiates, barbiturates, cannabinoids, and amphetamines. benzos are kept out on the shelves with the other drugs.

The only people I talk to who are doing this are stay at home moms or grandmas.

>>3114919 Don't have to interact with customers.

i love the way people in the service industry view everyone they're serving as this giant indistinguishable mass of faceless, nameless, worthlessness that they label "customers"

its like the lingo a sociopath uses for his murder victim or something

I know where to go for cheap / free anything

Cons:
Parents complaining about my unemployment

-free food
-if there's no deliveries needed to be made, i basically get paid to lounge around the restaurant

-paying for a fuckton of gas, FFFFFUUUUUUU
-people who call in fake deliveries fucking suck
-no benefits at all
-any retarded kid with a car can do my job

>>3116639

Actually, a sociopath's victims have some connection, whether it be their sex, hair color, profession, proximity, etc. So he's pretty specific about it.

How ever, the service industry IS serving a faceless mass. It's called the consumer. Nothing goes on between you and the consumer, you provide your service and all is done.

Animator on a famous cruise line.

Pros:
- 10% of people which go on a cruise end up fucking someone from the animation staff, or came just for that reason. We have 5000 passengers every ten days now, so statistically there's 250 girls and women who are basically running around naked and looking for me always.

- Work is fun, basically organising games and activities, and then conversations and being social.

- I work with people from all around the world. I knew 3 languages when I entered the job, now I speak 5.

- My bosses were always young and nice to me.

Cons:

- Shit pay - 600/700 euros a month if you're lucky.

- Working time fucking infinite: you begin at 8 am and end at 3 am every day. Only way to get less hours is to work with Children Animation, but then no pussy.

- Drunk americans suck.

- People always yelling and treating you like shit, when that's the receptionist's job.

- If you get a complaint, the company begins telling you how many people they have available for my job. And they do have a lot of them.

- Only career you can make out of this requires pretty much 30 years before you begin working less and getting the moneys.

- 10 months a year out of home, in some stupid ass turistic city filled with arabs selling you stuff and trying to steal your walet.

Long-haul truck driver.

inb4 hooker/camwhore/porn star

>>3116882
That sounds kinda fun for a temp. job...
Do they hire temporary workers? Like, people who only want to be there for a year or two.

>>3117104

In my company contracts only last 5 months. Animator is more of a career for the age 20-29 anyway..
Only thing you'll need is a good knowledge of english in my company, and being young and social. Other companies of course, might have other requirements.

I work at the Air Force Museum in warner robins, Georgia

Pros
Extremely easy work
fun enviornment

Mind numbing boredom.

>>3117056

>>3117211

Aeronautical engineer

Pros
- Rewarding, interesting work. It's not all sexy design, but it's better than filling out forms all day or flipping burgers
- Good work environment, all of my coworkers are intelligent and mature, we're all focused on making helicopters. Office politics are nonexistent
- Pays quite well, and I get halfprice helicopter flying lessons

Cons
- I sit in a cube all day
- My coworkers are boring and normal
- Work can get kind of slow

>>3117204
Yeah yeah, I realized what I'd done after hitting "submit."

The food is generally poor, yes, as well as being overpriced. The alternatives are to find grocery stores - Walmart Supercenters are popular alternatives for health-conscious truckers due to their large parking lots and full-service grocery store. Some also keep little plug-in ovens and mini-fridges in the trucks.

>>3114872
>my real goal (think childhood dream) is to become a historian or archeologist.

You're better off keeping this as a hobby rather than a career since it's very hard to get a good position in these fields. Especially as a historian. I know plenty of history majors working grunt jobs.

I'm a courtesy clerk for a popular grocery store chain.
My job is to bag groceries, clean up messes, and push carts.

-The managers make you do shit that isn't even close to your job
-When someone shits all over the bathroom you have to clean it up
-Minimum Wage, No benefits, Union Dues for a Union that does NOTHING AT ALL

-There aren't really any pros, you basically do the work that you'd do on a job that paid $12+ for minimum wage and every treats you like shit and shits on you

Protip: This job will motivate you to go to college.

>>3117102

pro- i don't have to work
con- pretty much a living death existence, which im gonna end soon with a gun

>>3116882
any time I hear about someone working on a cruise line I think of that DJ/pingpong guy from David Foster Wallace's essay 'A Supposedly Fun Think I'll Never do Again'

>>3117056

grow a pair and get a real job

>>3117484

That "soon" doesn't sound convincing enough. You should do it now, and stream it.

Grad student (social science)

pros

- interesting work and teaching, new things all the time
- very flexible hours and free time
- as long as you get the work done, no one cares how you do it
- "boss" is more of a co-worker

cons

- 20k a year is pitiful for the knowledge I have, tho not bad for the actual amount of work I do
- some students are ungrateful / stupid / useless / apathetic
- research takes FOREVER to get published, so you are constantly in a state of limbo
- the loose structure can set you back years if you don't take the initiative to get things done

>>3117546
lol

this is why i quit it/compsci in college

>>3117452
By the way, all the scenefags can say what they want about meeting their favorite bands, most of them are assholes. The only ones I've met who aren't total dicks are Nabil from I Set My Friends on Fire, every member from NOFX, Conor Oberst from Bright Eyes, Anthony Green, Tom from A Day to Remember, Dale Crover of the Melvins, and Rivers Cuomo.

Avoid the members of Alesana, Dance Gavin Dance, Sparta, and Radiohead at all costs. I've never met a bunch of elitist assholes in my life.

I've met Mike Patton once, and he was honestly just too weird to approach.

>>3117546

Man, I bet all those bitches look good with no clothes on.

Are you in Reno, OP?

>>3117580

>I've met Mike Patton once, and he was honestly just too weird to approach.

It's cool to know exactly what I would expect is real.

/looks up how to get obs. sitter job

>>3117578
The thing is, I majored in Japanese/Poli Sci in college, which has absolutely nothing to do with my job.

>>3117593
What bitches?

>>3117580
at what capacity did you meet radiohead?

>>3117599
Not OP, but I live in Reno. I used to work at the RGJ but got laid off about a month ago.

>>3116671
i would do drugs all day and get a skin-colored ipod earbud to listen to interesting talk shows or music

>>3117533
You must be inexperienced and sheltered to just blurt out such insulting assumptions.

No, I don't get a month off. The standard time off is two or three days every two weeks. And I don't drink very often, anymore. I have better things to do.

I would guess from your comment that you're unemployed, right? Maybe soaking off of mommy and daddy?

>>3117702

What'd you do at the RGJ?

Also a Renofag, I used to work at the pizza place at UNR, but they hired too many people and gave me no hours. They haven't officially said I'm fired, but fuck it.

I WORK AT MOVIE GALLERY
THEY LET ME RENT MOVIES BEFORE THEY'RE ON SHELVES
THE HOURS ARE PRETTY GOOD
THE PEOPLE CAN BE DICKS THOUGH
I DON'T GIVE A SHIT

I am a log tech for Halliburton and I am mixed about my job

Cons:
-sit by an old racist irish man who drinks all the republican koolaid. He thinks Obama is a nigger terrorist whos every intention is to destroy the USA

-Companies bitch all the time for old shit. salesmen think i can magically crap out their product and get it to their customers in an hour.

-Getting up early. I hate the fucking morning with a passion. Every time my alarm goes off in the morning I really want to shoot myself

-Random drug tests. A coworker of mine just got fired from one cause he smoked some weed on his b-day. Shit sucks because he was a damn fine worker in every way and did not deserve it

-Shit scared about being laid off. They went and cut a bunch of people 2 weeks ago because of the economy

-Everyday is 8+ hours and monday is pretty much a given at 10+ hours. If shit doesnt get out, then people bitch and now they are refusing to pay for overtime. So ya, I am getting fucked up the ass because if I dont put in the time, i might get laid off.

Pros:
- Good pay and great benefits. Health, dental, 401k, 2 weeks paid vacation the moment you start. I may hate my job some days but when i am sitting in costa rica and getting paid for it, it should be pretty awesome

-The coolest boss I have ever worked for. He is a really laid back and intelligent guy, most my previous employers were incompetent fucks

-Just about every coworker of mine is a rather cool person

-I can listen to whatever I want to pass the time and not just some shitty ass commercial radio

I work at a flooring company, in the warehouse. I mostly just sweap up the floors and wash trucks, as well as other tasks here and there.

-Its easy work.

Cons:
-Smell like chemicals at the end of the day
-Gets kinda boring
-The only food place near by is White Castle.

Working 2 part-time jobs and going to school full time isn't so bad. Most people look at me and think I'm insane when it's easily doable.

I'm a student at university

- Meeting new people all the time

Cons;
- Ocasionally I have to do work or pull my shit together and revise for an exam.

i was a pharmacy tech for awhile too. i made $7/hr after working there for a year. considering the knowledge that was required, i.e. the drug class for each medication, how to read scripts, etc that wage was bullshit. especially since i've also caught so many errors, i'm surprised that i worked for that wage for that long in retrospect. and that's not considering stuff that's been mentioned already, i.e. customers suffering from "whine at the gas station clerk about oil prices" syndrome.

The place I work is half childcare and half arcade, it's part of the bigger casino company.

pros
-get to hang out with awesome kids

-holidays and weekends are hellish
-no free time when i've got a full-time schedule (i'm on part-time right now)

and the teenagers that work there arent hot like at all....theres one...maybe two

City Librarian Here

Cons:
- ALL of my bosses are crochety old women who can't get their shit together. One of them tells me to check the book drop (The slot outside the building where people throw their books into without going inside), and 10 minutes later I'm getting yelled at for not putting books back on the shelves.

cons:
-Every kid comes in with a Dragon Ball Z portafolio
-Every girl with luckystar... shitty stuff, I tell you.

-They always want to get to "the good stuff" (aka, Anime. They signed up for comics, not anime. Thankfully schoolboard won't assign it, since most people there think we should support american media more than cartoon porn fuel).

Always moving, lifting, etc so it's a good workout
People who work in kitchens are always amazing, always *helps to know spanish*
Food, lots of it

Cons:
Sometimes the kitchen falls apart IE out of something, someone calls in sick, or people generally aren't working as hard as they should and everything goes fucking wrong all night. When this happens I want to fucking die

Dealing with servers. I fucking hate servers so fucking much. Especially ones who write in fucking chicken scratch on their tickets

I worked at a Independent Video Rental Place as the manager

Cons:
* Had to deal with a bunch of useless cunts for employees
* Pay was shit
* Customers bitching about late fees
* Trying to explain how fullscreen/widescreen works to clueless people
* When the economy went to shit I got demoted because the owners came in to work the store
* Customers with the taste for shit. "What you haven't seen Beef 2?" "I don't watch movies with subtitles, don't you have an English version?"

Pros:
* Store was slow. I watched movies, read books, or played video games for hours.
* Free rentals, and because I saw so many movies I got to watch some off the wall stuff that I never would have found otherwise.
* Some great customers. I had a few people that when they came in would make the day better talking to them. Had one guy who would bring me books to read. Had another who would do my taxes for free.
* When the economy went bad I got to FIRE ALL MY CUNT STAFF! Stupid fucking bitches were all related.

I start training as a nursing assistant in a month. My wife is going to be the nurse I assist if the facility director keeps her word.

Work: Shift Leader at Dunkin Donuts.

Pros:
Get to more or less boss others around
Get out of helping customers by doing various tasks (prepping, counting money, ect.)
Free meals and drinks when I'm working
All but two people on the crew I'm on good terms with.
The locals. The ones that are regulars will give me discounts at the stores they work at.

Cons:
The two I'm not on good terms with.
The pay. I'm on going on my fifth year and only making $8.25 when the other shift leaders are making at least $8.75. Some of the regular employees make more than me as well.
The customers. We're slammed in every season because of the location. "I just waited in line for 25 minutes! I dema-""SCREW YOU."
Ordering a ton of stuff at Drive-Thru and then complaining that it took us too long.
Ordering a breakfast sandwich at 6 PM.
People who aren't able to grasp that our store closes at 9 PM because "the one back home stays open until 11."
And last but certainly not least, people who honk their horn in the drive-thru. One day, when I leave this place, I will have a megaphone ready for these people.

Summary: I hate tourists.

Until I got laid off a bit ago-
Plastic Factory Press Operator

Pros:
I don't have to talk to anybody.
I make [made] pretty decent money for making four robot motions for eight hours while letting my mind wander.
Night shift, so I didn't have to deal with traffic or anything.
Physical work, so I actually get to move around and stuff.

Cons:
Obviously, I don't have it any fucking more, so that's the biggest one.
When I DO have to deal with others, they're all fucking nimrods.
Some of the presses are too goddamn fast. It wouldn't kill production to give me two extra seconds.

Community Access Worker;
I work in the local libraries teaching seniors how to use the internet, email, etc.

Pros: I get paid a decent wage for very easy work, and I get treated like a hero, which is nice. If I have downtime, I'm usually browsing the internet or watching a movie surreptitiously on my laptop.
Cons: 80% of people I help are idiots. I can understand that some people need to be taught the basics, but some people are downright retarded. If you're browsing this board, you must be computer-savvy to some degree, so you wouldn't be able to comprehend how thick these people are. I've had people trying to move the mouse around in the air (on the same plane as the screen) to make the cursor move, or literally push the screen with a finger when I ask ask them to click on an icon.

Bestbuy Inventoryfag here

Pro's
::::::::
The discount. Save a little on some stuff, a fuck ton on others.

At my store, and I'm sure at most stores the cashiers are hot/cute as hell 90% of the time.

Along with the discount, the vendor accomodations are great sometimes as well. Mostly they are just discounts, but sometimes they have training videos you watch and are then tested on. Score above a certain mark and receive free shit. I did one yesterday that might net me a free Line 6 Micro Spider amp, still waiting to hear back how I did.

Pay is pretty good, a hair under 10/hour.

Can't say much about the benefits, but the employee stock plan is great, and the 401k isn't bad.

Oh yeah, the discount. $8 HDMI cables? yes please.
Cons
::::::::
Management, at least at my store the managers are rather bitchy and worthless. My direct manager gets 80k a year, not including benefits and shit and bitches about his job all day. And this is without a college education.

Customers

Customers

Customers for reasons I shouldnt have to explain. If you work retail you know.

Corporate does stupid shit on a regular basis.

Since i'm an inventoryfag part of my job is to stock product when the trucks come in. So I'll be walking on the sales floor with a handtruck full of shit and people just stop and ask me questions. I know this goes under the customers category but wtf.

Can't really think of anything else. If the discount wasn't so good it would just be another god awful retail job.

Working at college in an alumni and fundraising office.

- Pay is $9.05/hour, which is great considering what I do

Cons:
- Mind-numbing database entry stuff (basically doing the same thing over and over and over and over and over)
- Can only work up to 20 hours a week as a fulltime student

Used to work at CVS. The amount by which this job beats working at CVS is gigantic.

>>3118484 Contribute to society you worthless scum.


I never understood

why people form 4chan

would lambaste their fellow man:

"Contribute, contribute, to society!"

and in their next breath, complain verily:

"I hate this cold world, and those who inhabit;"


oh fuck it, you're a hypocrite and a dullard you're not worth the effort to finnish this limerick

Reliability Engineer

Pros:
Well paid, lots of benifits
Alot of freedom to do what I want
Alot of respect, despite everyone knows more about stuff than I do
Cool co-workers who are willing to teach
Intellectually rewarding

Cons:
Hours are long. 8+ is basically a requirement
Information can be hard to come by, have to make decisions which could come back and haunt you
Feel like I could get laid off due to the economy
Having to learn alot in very little amount of time, can be overwhelming.
Have a good chance of getting something hazardous on me (sump pumps are not fun)

I fly F-16s in the USAF. Seriously.

PROS:
- Get to see/do amazing shit
- The job is NEVER boring. NEVER.
- The cool factor of wearing a flight suit. Kids stare, grown men give you the thumbs-up, women get all nervous around me 'cuz I'm a pilot.
- People are always grateful for what I do. I hear "thank you for your service" a lot.
- If you ever meet people who don't know you, the conversation ALWAYS goes in the direction of "what do you do for work." I always win and become the topic of conversation.
- You know that douchebag from High School that everyone loved? I get to meet him in chance encounters (or if he finds me on FaceBook) and the jealousy shows like a motherfucker.
- The pay is actually really nice.
- Everyone at work is cool. Seriously, the pilots I work with are the coolest and funniest people I've ever known. Fighter pilots = superior specimens of the human race. Seriously.
- Alcohol is encouraged at work. If you're not flying that day, go ahead and make yourself a Jack and Coke. We have a fucking BAR in our building. That's right...our OWN BAR.
- Speaking of the bar, there's always coffee/popcorn/snacks available. Pay a nominal monthly "tax" and eat/drink all you want. Beer included.

CONS:
- The hours are fucking LONG. I work 14 hour days and work half-days most Sundays.
- Moving every few years. The wife doesn't complain too much...yet.
- Every morning, you have to wake up and think "I might die today in that jet." It's motivating, but sometimes it would be nice to not have to think about it.
- Air combat is fucking COMPLEX, so I'm ALWAYS studying. If I'm not flying, I'm buried in a book learning about flying. It just doesn't stop.


So yeah, I'd recommend it. If you're 14 and want to do what I do GET OFF THE FUCKING COMPUTER AND GO OUTSIDE.

Don't become a neckbeard loser like 50% of the people on here.

How do you know a pilot is at a party?

He'll tell you.

How many pilots does it take to screw in a lightbulb?

Just one, he holds it into the socket and the world revolves around him.

How do you know your date with a pilot is half over?

"That's enough about me, let's talk about my plane!"

They say God has a pilot complex.

I am an Appliance Sales Associate at a Home Depot in Cincinnati, Ohio

Pros:

- $11/hr without relevant experience!
- That can NEVER GO DOWN if I transfer to another store / department.
- Little-to-no oversight. I browse the internet for most of my shift.
- Customers are generally really easy to work with.
- No real managerial structure--you never really have to do much of anything.
- Walkie-talkies are just fun, no matter what.
- Co-workers are all really easy-going.

Cons:

- Very few hours some weeks as a part-time associate. If I was full-time, shit would RULE.
- Some websites are blocked :(
- Half or more of the calls that come in aren't for my department. No, I don't know EVERYTHING about home improvement because I wear this orange apron.
- All Home Depot employees are grunts. If something needs to get done right away, anybody and everybody will have to help.

erm...wat? He SERVES in the airforce and then people thank him for his SERVICE

I always try to say thanks to people in the military. I saw this old mexican dude with an old stained hat that said WWII VETERAN at a local burger place. I went up to him and said thank you for your service. He really appreciated it and came over to my table (I was eating alone) and talked to me for about 15 minutes about his stories of the war and how people dont even say thanks anymore which disappointed him. He said that even mexicans dont say thanks to him and asked me if I as mexican. Im asian so I was like err, no...'

great dude. Made my day talking to him

PS: thanks for your service to the viper driver

blockblockgo!

Student at top rated private university, working in the library's book preservation department

Pros:
- As long as I call ahead, I don't have to come into work. Awesome when I'm lazy or pulled an all nighter
- Learning an actual craft that I'll have for the rest of my life
- Pay is good for the small amount of effort I put into it: $8.50/hr
- Get to handle amazing old books. The oldest book I ever worked on was from the 1500s
- Pretty fulfilling because I get to say I'm taking care of humanities collected knowledge
- I get to decide the kind of work I'm going to do each day. Will I repair old books, glue CD pockets, make custom fitted boxes, rebind damaged stuff, treat damaged leather, delivery books to different departments.
- My co-workers are all socially deprived middle aged women, so if I don't feel like working, I just start up a conversation and chat for a while.
- I get to use cool equipment and chemicals. My favourite is the massive cast iron blade that can slive cleanly through a hardcover book.
- I take home the tons and tons of scrap paper and fabric and make art projects out of them.
- The atmosphere is pretty relaxed, I can take bathroom and snack runs

Cons:
- My co-workers are all socially deprived middle aged women, so if I start up a conversation it tends to get boring pretty quickly
- Sucks to have to work and take a full-course load of upper-level classes at the same time
- The preservation lab is in the basement of the library, so I don't get to go outside
- The work is mostly all sitting down
- Nothing 'exciting' ever really happens

>>3119860

-bunch of great restaurants nearby, don't have to go far for lunch
-some of our clients would send us free stuff

Busboy at Japanese Restaurant

PROS:
Free food. Sushi, teriaki, gyoza, shumai, tenpura, pretty much anthing.
Decent tips make anywhere from 30-70 a night from those.
Chill, young, boss, but he's a complete tool. I don't mind because he's a nice guy.
Some hot hostesses I've gotten with.
Staff likes me, I'm reliable and have been working there for nearly 3 years.
On slow nights one busboy gets to go home early.
On slow nights with one busboy you get paid to watch football in HD.

CONS:
Pretty shit pay, minimum wage.
Staff makes fun of me when I eat because they're too good to eat apparently.
Staff doesn't speak much english, waiters/sushi chefs are japanese/chinese and cooks are spanish. Sometimes I unintentionally speak broken english back to them.
Dinner at the end of the night usually sucks, it's like fish soup or some shitty beefy broth. But if i get enough sushi during the night i'm good. And otherwise i'll just go to mcdonalds on the way back home or something.
Constantly moving.
Smell pretty shitty afterwards.
On busy nights you have to stay and sweat and get yelled at.
On busy nights with one busboy you're fucked. Except for the money.

Cons:
-I work probably 4x the amount of hours I actually get paid for, which is to say very little.
-production schedules and deadlines can mean alot of extra hours.

>>3119969

I did that, too. Frequently. Mostly because all the bitches up front would conveniently disappear when my manager came out looking for help, would complain about the dishwater so much that me, being the silent one, would get shafted.

I'm planning on entering the psychology field after I finish school (underage fag, I know). I need to have work experience organised fairly soon, and I have had trouble finding places to go that do not infringe on doctor-patient confidentiality. Any tips on where to go? And when I've found a place, any tips on actually getting in? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Actually going to work or to class is better than staying in bed all day when feeling depressed.
Its harder, but doesnt feel as shit

Long ass thread, read half of it.

I'm currently unemployed (for two months) but unlike the other bums in this thread it sucks major balls. I AM SO FUCKING BOARD. All I do is drink and play games. I'm probably going to have problems detoxing in a week when I start at my new job.

Library Clerk

Pros:
- Sweet ass pay, $22.29 an hour.
- Delicious biscuits in the lunchroom ALL THE TIME. Middle aged women love them some biscuits.
- Air-conditioned in summer.
- Heated in winter.
- All the libraries I work at are close to public transport, easy as hell to get to and from work.
- I can have any book/DVD I want.
- Old men are always really nice to me.
- Work is really easy and I get to sit down a fair bit.
- Everyone I work with is lovely.
- If a sexual predator comes in I get to sit out the back eating biscuits/drinking tea until they leave, while still getting paid for it.

Cons:
- It takes me at least an hour to get to work.
- Mothers who come in are bitchy, demanding, rude and let their children run rampant then blame me when they get hurt.
- Libraries are in a dodgy area and I have to check the "Sexual Predators Currently Out Of Prison" list every time I go in.

I fucking love my job.

>>3121841
I'm pretty bored also... heh. Have some tits.

>>3121848
>- If a sexual predator comes in I get to sit out the back eating biscuits/drinking tea until they leave, while still getting paid for it.
>- Libraries are in a dodgy area and I have to check the "Sexual Predators Currently Out Of Prison" list every time I go in.

explain this.. why are you do worried about sexual predators? are you a little boy or something..

I hate my local library. Its always filled with fucking nigger kids hogging all the computers just to dick around on myspace, and always loud as fuck.
You cant read books in peace in that shit

>>3121859

this post is hilarious without an image

>>3121848

HOW THE SHIT DID YOU GET THIS SWEET JOB

>>3117360

haha save-on or overwaetea foods lol,
read about your workers rights
I do the same and get paid 11.50 :P

>>3121889
Teenage girl. Most of them were in prison for offences against teenage girls, so I'm not allowed to be on the desk if they come in. It's only happened once, but I've also seen them hanging around outside and near the train station. The idea is that if I always go out the back when I see them coming close they won't know I work there and can't prey on me or whatever when I'm on my way home.

Yeah, libraries being quiet places has gone to fuck. One that I work at has a child health nurse every second day, which means every second day the place is swarming with screaming babies, screaming terrorising toddlers and moody pregnant teenage mothers.

>>3121904
I honestly don't know. I do a fulltime university course so I don't work during semester, but they said they were incredibly impressed by me in my interview and want me around on the holidays. Maybe it was my nifty argyle vest? All the libraries around here are hiring at the moment actually, people keep quitting or leaving which is weird considering, you know, recession and all.

>>3121963
Oh lord.. sorry but besides the pay that sounds like a horrible job.

I just cant deal with screaming babies for so long. Or bratty kids. Fuck em

>>3121963

Wow, how's being a terrible wuss working out for you? Must be great to be so lazy AND have an excuse for it.

>>3121977
Haha, it's not so bad. I have the power to remove them from the library if I think they're too noisy, which is kinda fun. I've done it a couple of times, but usually the child health nurse tries to keep them quiet as well. It's just the combination of screaming babies and old people whining to me about the screaming babies that gets me. O SRY BITCHY OLD LADY, I'LL JUST GO BEND TO YOUR EVERY WHIM WHILE SIMULTANEOUSLY SHELVING THIS CART OVERFLOWING WITH BOOKS, PRINTING AND MAILING RESERVATION NOTICES AND SERVING THE FIVE OTHER PEOPLE WAITING. Bitches.

>>3121988
It's swell =D

>>3121517
That and depth perception and movement test (like seeing a white rabbit running in snow)

I was going to join the airforce once, for F16 avionics, but they were dicking me around so I dropped them.

Would have waited however long they wanted if I could have flown a jet though.

>>3122020
I'm sorry but a teenage girl librarian? Do you wear glasses?

>>3122121
Damn, I fucking hope so.

I work at UPS, sorting boxes.

PROS:
- $15 an hour because I've been there six years. You get a dollar or more raise each year.
- Two weeks vacation per year, 5 sick days, 5 personal days, all paid.
- Friday and Saturday off. Hell yes.
- The people are cool, a lot of rednecks but most of them are decent to talk to.
- It's a factory building full of 99% guys, so you can yell and curse and "be a guy" without offending some woman.
- The few ladies around are HOT AS FUCK but unobtainable, for some reason only girls with boyfriends/husbands choose to work at UPS. Shame.
-Our union is nigh unstoppable, they will never be able to fire you and make it stick unless you attack an employee or show up drunk a dozen times. Also you can call in pretty much all the time and no one cares.

CONS:
- I only get about 22 hours a week, they rarely promote anyone to full time unless you choose to be a delivery driver.
- No driver spots open right now, and I want one so bad. Do you have any clue what UPS drivers make? Like $35,000 starting out. It's fucking insane. Top pay allowed is like $32 per hour. I WANT TO DRIVE THE BROWN TRUCK PLZ
- The managers can be dicks, but that's true everywhere.

>>3122121
I do actually. Had to think about it for awhile though, I've had them for so long I don't really remember or notice them.

Glasses > Contacts.

I work at the Portland State University Noah's Bagels.

Pros:

-Awesome co-workers, a lot of fun to talk with
-Day goes by pretty quick, simple job that stays busy
-Hours fit well with my school schedule
-Fairly lax about most everything, since it's a lot of students

Cons:

-Just over minimum, like 8.50 or something.
-Working under Aramark. Lots of corporate BS that makes no sense.
-I cut bagels. Not very rewarding.
-No tips :/

I guess this should fall under intern, except I'm getting payed. I'm not a secretary, so do with it what you will.
I file invoices, organize meetings, and do random stuff around the office.

Pros:
-Go to school and work on my off time
-EASY work, like really easy.
-Get paid $10.00/hour for my first job with no previous experience
-Get to work from home and when I do go to the office it's only for a couple of hours a week.
-My bosses greatly value me because apparently they are technologically handicapped :)
-Job security. I'm constantly talking about future projects with my bosses and how I will be able to help them.
-No real Co-Workers.

Cons:
-No real Co-Workers :(
-Paranoid about fucking up because I have to deal with some large scale deals and important customers.


Final comments- Job is easy, and convenient. I actually enjoy putting hours in. Also, I love rich people. I'm getting paid for what a program could do.

>>3122240
That is awesome, not to mention hot as shit.

>>3121848

How did you land that job? Are you a book nerd/obsessive compulsive?

Unemployed for 7 months.

Pros:
Flexible hours
lots of free time

Cons:
I forget to shower
No income

LOL THANK YOU ECONOMIC DISASTER

Delivery Driver for a takeaway food shop

Pros
-18$AUS/hr
-Free meal at the end of the night (holy fuck the food is so good there)
-Driving around in the car listening to triple jjj/cds
-Taking longer ways to the destination if its a short delivery so i can relax for a little bit
- Working late arvos/nights (5-9ish/10ish) suits my nerd lifestyle of staying up late and waking up late
- Jesus christ the free meals, soooooooo goood
- It isnt pizza, and i live in a decent part of North fo the river Perth, so i get decent tips (Most of the time the petrol is covered) and dont deliver to full on parties full of drunk bogans
- Rarely get shitty customers due to intimidating italian chef 2 metres away
- Its mostly teenage guys there, and all of them are nice/cool/funny guys. Most of them cover your shifts if you need them off, and nearly all of them can perfectly quote Trent from Punchy

Cons
- Working at night with other driver coworkers away means i miss out on going out on Sats/Weds
- If no deliverys, im basically a highly paid kitchen hand. Washing dishes, grabbing stock out of cool room, taking orders etc
- Sometimes gets insanely busy, Angry Italian Chef (tm) gets extremely stressed and starts yelling if mistakes are maid (not often)
- Drunk bogans ordering massive meals at the end of the night.

Pretty sweet job, and i have massive respect to the chef who works extremely hard.

Unemployed bum.
Pros:
- Do what I want
- Get lots of sleep
- Don't have to put up with faggots

Cons:
- No money
- Getting a new job is getting harder
- Getting kinda smelly

>>3122349
Pretty much yeah. I read a lot and have a little OCD. I like things to be in the right order, which is a godsend considering most of my work is shelving and shelfchecking [making sure all the books are in the right order]. It probably also helps I was well presented and had a pretty good resume. Although prior to this I had no work experience at all, and it was a steep uphill climb for me to get comfortable talking to people and making small talk and whatever. I've only ever heard from the bosses and other employees that I'm a good worker though, so I must be doing something right.

Work as a Salad Artist

Pros:
Incredible pay. Up to $31 per hour sometimes.
Co-workers are great. We all go out together
I pretty much make salads or serve people all day so it's easy as shit.
It's dead during the afternoon so we just stand around and talk.
As many or as little hours as I want.
Fantastic boss.

Cons: 7am starts.

I don't think I'll leave before I finished my degree.

-Prestige talking about job (looks good on resume)
-Meet and talk with former Astronauts
-Learn a lot about the space program
-Essentially get paid to have fun with people

Cons
-Employer (current contractor) are stupid fucks
-Boss is a total tool with little ambitions for the program (solely for himself)
-No real growth within the company
-I hit a glass ceiling after working for them for a summer
-No authentic resources to improve programs each year
-Realize how much improvement is possible yet how futile it is because of redtape (thanks corporate)
-Pay doesn't match with level of responsibilities

Forgot to mention that co-workers are fucking awesome.

Guests can either be awesome or a pain in the ass. Gotta grin and bare it. Usually at the end of a tough day or end of the week, we share stories at a local pub. Funny as hell.

Also, free food.

The lead architect is a bit of a pain in the ass and everything has to be done his way.
Working on one project all day and getting nowhere.

Job: University Student Center Assistant

I'm unemployed right now and have been since August, but before that I was a camp counselor at a shitty camp in new england.

pros:
- tons of time off (compared to other camps) and NO CURFEW unless I'm working
- kids are hilarious
- got high all the time
- coed camp
- free room & board

cons:
- shit pay
- "rustic" living quarters, so that means cabins pretty much open to the elements, and disgusting toilets that get clogged up if anything other than piss is in them
- like being in prison. everyone goes crazy! the boys do bizarre stuff to each other (like shit on the floor of the bunks, trick kids into rubbing icy hot on their balls, etc etc) and the women are all just horrible bitches to each other and everyone around them
- little to no internet/outside communication
- business is run horribly and employees treated like shit; I have heard stories from coworkers about the boss spying on them, taking their phone and checking their messages, getting involved in their personal life (like asking who they have fucked lately)
- your job basically requires asskissing, if you don't you aren't a good employee and don't get to come back
- some of these kids are not even 10 and already have that jewish entitlement driven into them so hard there's nothing human left in them
- can't take a decent shower and look like shit all the time
- can get fired for any reason, at any time without notice and all they do is drop you off at a bus station 20 minutes outside of the camp

I do two different jobs depending on the staff/time of season. The people I work for own a small pitch 'n putt golf course and a bit of land that we use as a beach car park.

Pros
- 5.50 GBP an hour, which is pretty awesome considering the actual skill needed, plus I get 50p for each car after we hit 200 in a day.

- Next door to a surf school, hot bronzed surfers come and talk to me sometimes.
- Most of the time I can just sit in my hut and read books or play handheld video games if it isn't busy/full.
- Sunny, some of the best coast in england, etc.
- My boss buys me ice cream if it's a hot day.
- Most interaction with customers is usually "3 pounds, park over there please."

Cons
- Have to clean up after tourists. Broken glass, dirty nappies, all sorts of disgusting shit.
- Tourists
- Tourists that want direction to an obscure hamlet 20 miles away
- No official lunch or toilet breaks

-I have more freetime then I know what to do with
-getting paid to learn shit I'm interested in is awesome.
-I'm not in debt

Cons:
-I'm constantly broke, barely scraping by.
-I have more freetime then I know what to do with.
-lack of a real schedual causes my sleep patterns to get all out of wack.
-The moment I graduate and stop getting paid, I will be completely and utterly broke.

work: supports neuro psychologicalyl challenged young adults.
Loc: Sweden, private sector.
Pros: the warm fuzzy feeling of making a difference, it's private sector (in sweden that means higher pay, education, non shifty work culture, possibility of promotion and it's run by educated managers, not elected officials), fun co workers, I meet a lot of interesting people.
Con: it could be a little better pay , I have 2150 euro a month plus extra for working nights (sleeping though), bad hours, no brakes or lunch hours, it can be boring listening to someone with the intellectual age of 5 talking to her/himself for 8 hours.
Other than that, as I live in Sweden I have dental, health and unemployment insurances :-)
