pie-eater 377 Posted December 14, 2013 Report Share Posted December 14, 2013 I was a security guard working nights in offices and on building sites. That could get seriously boring. You take something from every experience and from this I took the ability to make a bed out of office chairs and get a good nights sleep. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Blackbriar 8,569 Posted December 14, 2013 Report Share Posted December 14, 2013 Night security at a (deserted) shopping centre - that was pretty lacklustre, but my worst was at a plastic bottle manufacturer's. Stood at the end of the line, putting plastic bottles onto cardboard trays.fill the tray, put another on top, fill the tray, put another on top..........................................4 days on, 3 days off,12 f***ing hours at a time! The highlight of the shift was finishing an order and changing to a different bottle ! God alone knows how I stuck it for 3 months..................... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

RubyTex 1,957 Posted December 14, 2013 Report Share Posted December 14, 2013 Nearly all of my jobs have been utter shite but the worst was packing packets of crisps into boxes and squeezing each bag to check they weren't burst 12 hour shifts as well. The straw that broke the camels back was being taken from my box packing job and left on a series of massive silos with each individual flavour bag coming down. No one told me how to stop them, how to shift the bags down the hatch quicker or anything....just told to "watch these"....so i did...but eventually i noticed them building up so tried my best to push them down quicker but it wasn't working ...the bloke came back about an hour later and there was me running about like a blue arsed fly trying to push the bags down and crisp packets all over the shop, crisps on the floor where i'd stood on packets, a right cock on...FFS Quote Link to post Share on other sites
