we are slow breed, and multitasking at high speeds is often hard. I know that feel brother. Learn better than everyone else, take a little longer to do it all due to worse coordination.

I'm an environmental scientist. If someone wants to build or alter something on their property that is close to a waterbody I have to review their permit application and go out and do a site inspection to make sure natural habitat or the water way isn't damaged in some way. I have provincial legislation backing me up when I do this.

He was most likely already planning to walk out and took advantage of the situation by pretending you caused him to leave.

>>26091839
>implying you wouldn't make creepy calls later
>>26091701
How do I get this job?
I work in a fast food kitchen on weekends and all I do is listen to music while I wash dishes and sometimes help others when it gets busy.
Coworkers and managers are mostly chill with the occasional dumbass assistant managers making themselves feel big.
>>26091862
It's either really fucking chill or really fucking stressful. Mostly stressful. I can't just walk around though, I gotta do stuff like restocking and helping customers find stuff, as well as cashier (which is literally a nightmare btw) sometimes. Some days I hate my job with the life of me, other days I kind of enjoy it. But even on the days I enjoy it, it's still difficult and stressful.
>>26091869
The majority of customers are old people and annoying 50 year old women with "speak to a manager" haircuts anyways, I'd rather call them and tell them to never come back.

This was all at the same retail store mind you. They moved me twice to try and accommodate me but I gave up after the first week due to passive aggressive co-workers and lost all motivation/enthusiasm.

>>26091994
Is that all you do?
>>26092009
No. It's my first week so the last few days I got sent to a couple sites with other technicians but didn't really have any work to do and spent the rest of the day browsing the internet. I really like this job so far.
>>26090510
This thread dude Jesus fucking Christ. Every single fast food job I've had (sonic, Pizza Hut, pizza inn, papa johns) I've quit before they can fire me because I'm so fucking slow. My anxiety just fucking overwhelms me whenever I'm trying to prepare their food and shit. I have to look at the ticket like 30 times because I'm afraid I'll forget something (or sometimes it doesn't matter how many times I look at the ticket, I still find a way to fuck it up). It sucks ass and I'm doing anything I can to never have to work fast food again. It's so bad I'm constantly thinking about going into work whenever I'm at home trying to relax. Fucking terrible.

corn, tomato and carrot has no place in a sandwich.
Subways braindead staff cant even grasp this though, do they want me to put a big tick or cross next to every vegetable? or would that confuse them too? they'd probably think "x marks the spot, better dump a handload of tomato and corn onto this guys bmt!"

I got my first job at 26 as a warehouse worker, so no.
>>26093026
If it's a low skill job they don't even check previous employment or references unless you get some autistic manager who would actually call around
Just lie and put down a friend or family member phone # for past employment and have them lie about being a manager
Obviously don't apply for a electronic engineer job at Intel and think you can bullshit your way in, apply for jobs that don't require any sort of physical proof (i.e. certifications/degrees) that you are qualified for and fake it till you make it
I've worked for 6 companies my life and they always ask if I have a HS diploma and/or drivers license and I've never had to provide proof or show I had any of it (I have them but just goes to show they don't check any of the shit you write down)
>>26092238
That's what I did. Closed my eyes, tried to clear my mind and only see a black screen. Then I breathed in through my nose and out through my mouth. You get thoughts that come through the black but I tried to maintain a black screen. Venting my problems onto a notepad also helped cuz it let me see what was bothering me.

This shit is easy! I'm not even good-looking, or "cute". I'm really ugly, but I just smile a lot, act like a dolt, and be really nice to everyone, and they all do the work for me. I've been working there for two years now, and no one has ever said "hey anon you dont do enough work here", or "you still don't know how to do that?".

Just make sure you say WHY you haven't had a job that long. If you're 20, make sure you've been "doing stuff" between the ages of 18-20. Make it seem like you've only been job-searching for like 2 months.

there is no reason to work minimum wage unless you're literally starving or your parents got cancer and need meds or something.... just stay home. shitty jobs like this will tire the fuck out of you and suck out your soul. and if shitty jobs are all you're qualified for then just become a NEET. you'll probably kill yourself by the time you're 30 but guess what? working minimum wage for 10+ years will make you suicidal too
STAY HOME

i was finally pulled out of neetdom to work at a new kfc that was opening. They took on about 70 staff and it was supposed to be the busiest kfc in this part of the country but the manager took on mostly attractive teenage girls and boys, theyd argue with customers, with eachother, sit on their phones when there was queues and eventually business went to shit, half the staff left and i went to the mcdonalds down the road. There has to be an air of discipline, if you fuck about or argue with a customer at my mcdonalds you get in trouble, at kfc there was shift managers who where complete fucking idiots but who were friends with the franchisee so got a free ticket and its been a disaster for the owner

Well at least you enjoyed it because afterwards my clean pretty face broke out, I got severe back and carpal tunnel pain and the girl I had a crush on their stopped talking to me.
that was my first kind of job they gave me a nickname because everything i did someone would have to redo it and i just saw someone from there years ago
>>26094285
good references aren't enough. if you were working and studying at the same time and got a degree in something useful, then yeah, you're set. personally I've tried it several times and couldn't handle the 90+ hour workweek. congrats if you did.
there are tons of 30-40 year olds who've been working shitty jobs since they were 18 and can't find anything better, and now they're stuck because they got kids or debt and need the money. at the last min wage job I had half the people in there were 25+

I will be homeless before I work in retail ever again. I was the only one who ever worked hard and the managers still didn't like me because I didn't smile enough. Not even sure why that would matter at all, I was maintenance.

It's easy you make yourself presentable, you go to daddy and five him a firm handshake and you tell him you need a new apartment and are going to need some allowance money too and he is going to have to increase the allowance every half year too because you are a growing boy so the money requirement increases

>Sooner or later the fact that you're hot isn't gonna make up for how much you call off, Chelsea.
It won't matter, she'll just get a new job. Women get hired so much easier than men. My sister just fucking job hops different restaurants every 2 months; while I've applied at 40 different places in the last few months and still haven't gotten a callback. She doesn't even have any steady work experience like me and has never even given in a two weeks notice. Not sure why I even bother anymore.
>>26094581
Leech is such a strong term
It's hardly leaching when there is so much of the stuff to go around
I choose to put it like I'm inheriting the money while be is still alive
And making more money
It's threads like these that make me thankful I work night security. It's literally the best job for robots.
>>26094600
Don't, just become a neet
When you are living in your own apartment waiting for daddy to give you your generous allowance every week you will thank me
>>26093226

This is the worst feeling, goddamn. Especially when someone's watching you/waiting on you.

Meanwhile I'm comfy in my apartment doing wathever I want
>>26094650
I am neet, I'm starting to run out of money though. Only $400 left. I like buying things too much to do it forever.
>>26094693
Pffft 400 is plenty until the end of the week when daddy will bring you more
>>26094719
My parents don't give me money man, just a place to stay and food.
i'd fucking leave if i was getting grief doing a low paid job for retards and students
>>26094743
They don't give you any money? Of course they don't when you are still living with them. You have to man up and ask daddy for an apartment that way he will know that you are ready to handle weekly money now
option A - zero money, but you are free to do what you want 7 days a week
option B - a little money, you are only free 1 day a week (in most shitty jobs you will have to work 6 days a week)
your life will be shit either way but at least you'll have some fun and be a lot less stressed as a NEET. most entertainment is free (videogames, movies, forums etc) there is no reason at all to choose B
if you can't get a good job (your own desk, air conditioning, 5 days a week, no one breathing down your neck etc) and have no kids to feed then just don't work. people need to stop applying for these shitty jobs. then maybe employers would offer better working conditions
I don't understand why people decide to work dead end jobs where you get payed shit and treated even worse, instead of taking your money and traveling around the world.
>>26094790
Ok, this is obviously bait or you're delusional. No parent would pay for an unnecessary apartment for their son to do nothing.

>>26090510
Yeah, this is what happened to me. Very fucking anxiety inducing at first, but eventually you learn to just not give a fuck. The worst part is its open so all the customers in line can see me while I'm making all the food in the back. I can't count how many times people will just death stare me because they have to wait 4-5 more minutes. Like this one guy leaned as close in as he could and just made this angry stare at me for a good 7 minutes without moving. Stupid cunts.
>>26095483
Drawing any amount of attention to that would just turn nasty. Being accused of being pedo is a guilty until proven innocent type of thing.

Sounds like you're just lazy and have unrealistic expectations for life to be honest family.
I'll never understand how people can work at jobs like that for their whole lives. Like eggy man, how has he not lost his marbles yet? Seriously I'd rather be homeless, selling drugs, live in prison or better yet fucking dead then have to be cucked at a high stress, tiring, dead end, shit job like McDonald's or what ever for the rest of my life.

It's okay man, I understand. It's nerve wrecking as fuck when someone stares at you while you're making their food. Makes me so anxious I can't focus and make plenty of retarded mistakes.
I'm sure they will promote you to cashier eventuelly.
>>26095596
this triggers me, you'd think these stupid fucking cunts would come back later or go eat somewhere else because the line is huge but NO, they stay and because of that it just keeps expanding, fucking retardville right there, hope the people working in that popeye's could double or even triple pay for that day but probably not.

That was the most stressful moment of my career. I felt like I was going to just break down and cry. Nobody wanted to help and the pressure of knowing some kid with a spinal fluid infection is riding on my call of whether or not it's truly what I'm seeing under the microscope was almost too much.

You could have sued them for that. They would have settled before it got to court.
>>26095839
it's more like institutionalized than being crazy
>>26095770
In my opinion cashier is easiest job. With the exception of huge groups that want giant fucking orders, or people with really specific requests, it's the easiest job and it's less potential to fuck up.
It's the most stressful thing to do at first, but after a month or so you can do it in your sleep (I actually used to dream about taking orders all night). It also helps that 90% of people order the exact same thing. Number 6 combo with fries, or a number 5 combo with fries.
Only thing that sucks is the way we have to harass the customers about saving 10% or trying a desert for an extra dollar and all that bullshit. It ruins the flow completely, but I almost got fired for not asking so now I just harass everyone. Elderly, little kids, people who say they just want to buy a small drink, whatever.
>>26095808
Good job anon! Proud of you!
10 days until I leave for basic training lads, 10....days. Fug, I've been dreading this shit for months, now its nearly here.

>Work as waiter
>Constantly fuck up mostly by dropping drinks on people and being a constant slow retard
>Everyone hates me

Probably should have quit so I could have used them as a reference. But I couldn't stand to work another day there anymore.
>>26095794
I used to get annoyed by it but I've come to realize people just really fucking want their MSG chicken. The huge lines don't even bother me as much, it's the people who see how huge the line is, and still fucking complain and tell that they have to wait. Like what the fuck did you expect?
The other day it was a line almost as big as pic related, and there was only 2 of us. I was in the back cooking as fast as possible to keep up, while one person was both taking orders and packing the food by herself. I started running back and forth to help her the front and cool more food, but obviously we ran out at one point. Some guy ordered like a 16 piece and got mad that he had been waiting 6 minutes. He starts yelling at me and I tell him that it won't be done until another 5 minutes. Dude just starts raging at me. I ask him if he wants mild chicken instead, which we have enough of still, and he says no. Then he keeps yelling, when I try to go back to work he tells me to come back so he can yell at me more. Why? What more do you want? It's not like I can just magically make it finish faster. Most customers are great but you get some absolute fucking angry retards.

Damn anon, that's a lot of stress. I understand that. I had the same problem the other day, except 1000x less intense or important. Same thing with all coworkers just shrugging and saying "idk". Even for something so insignificant it made me really stressed.
Can't imagine it being something as important as that. Would you have gotten in trouble had you made a mistake? Or do they accept that mistakes happen.

>>26096142
Significance is relative. I hate people not wanting to help so I feel for you, anon.
Yes and no. In all honesty, I shouldn't have reported it as definitively as I did. I should have maybe been a little bit more broad in my language to the doctor so as to make sure the doctor doesn't just go "Oh, we know exactly what it is." If it had turned out to be not what I thought, I probably wouldn't have been in really bad trouble but it could have turned into a real debacle.
Most antibiotics are based on a spectrum so it probably would have treated other gram negatives even if it wasn't exactly what I thought it was, but if it hadn't, it definitely could have killed the kid and I would have been involved in a really bad situation where you have to explain to the director why you reported what you did. Then I would have been apart of a huge paperwork mess to explain why a patient died from something treatable and why it was misreported by the lab.
>>26094280

It's some old persian guy with bad english. He was once asked me to do something but all I heard was "clean tins" I asked him if he said "Did you clean the tins?" or "Can you clean the tins?"

>>26096335
Damn. That sounds really rough man. Is the pay at least good? I think it's not even accidentally causing someone's death that would bother me as much as the aftermath you described. Also imagine making a mistake like that more than once. I think it'd be better if there was a full team that made a decision together than having to just make a judgement alone.
How difficult is it usually? For the most part is it a pretty clear what you're looking at? Or do problems with possible doubts happen a lot

I'm in Virginia now and it's the same thing. They manage to get every single order wrong that isn't just "large #3" I'm amazed they all have jobs when teenagers will work for min wage too except they don't mess up constantly.

>>26096525
Pay is pretty good. Better than average at least and the health benefits are really nice.
Well, on 2nd shift and 1st shift (day time shifts), there are more people in the lab and if you get something weird you can ask other but on night shift (3rd) there is a smaller staff and fewer to ask so you're kind of on your own. But you also have a smaller volume of stuff at night so it's a mixed bag.
It's usually not too difficult. You get a lot of routine shit that you see a lot. Food poisoning, E. coli infection, some wound abscess that's just a mild staph infection, etc. But every once in a while you get something ridiculous that's an abnormal. It's exciting but stressful at the same time.
Most bacterial stuff you can look at yourself, do a few tests, have a general idea of what it is, and then you put it in a machine that can tell you with pretty good certainty what it is based off chemicals inside the machine. That takes off a lot of the stress. Problem is that if a patient has some kind of blood, CSF, or brain infection you may not have time to do a whole array of tests and throw it in the machine to tell what it is. Instead, you have to do just a few tests, get a general idea, and then send out a report ASAP so the doctor can get to work.
The worst is when the machine is down and you get some fucking crazy bacteria that is really rare and you have to go hunting in books to find what it could be, rushing all over the place to figure out what tests to run.
Also, there's the off chance you could have some really pathogenic that, once you identify it, you have to go into quarantine and get treated with antibiotics for months just for being around it. It's stressful at times for sure because of this.

Thank you for the post anon. Sounds like a pretty nice job, and meaningful. h
Hopefully you never get quarantined. I'm trying to decide what to do in life so I love when people talk about their jobs in depth.
What are your coworkers like?
Customer/people interaction at work is the worst, I worked as a mail clerk and was able to talk to coworkers and managers enough but when jt came to doing the rounds I fucking hated having to interact with people when delivering the mail to assigned offices and departments in the building.
Never knew if I should do more to interact with them and small talk or just act like a robot with brief answers and responses and just do my job, I just wanted to do the latter and not interact with anyone beyond just mail delivery but that would probably make them feel creeped or whatever even though it would be most comfortable for me.
Never again.
My ideal job now is something where I get to work with computers or with some quiet machinery and talk to no one all day but the manager or whatever.
Wish there were more jobs for those with a high tolerance for solitude but no, every fucking job requires "people skills", daily interaction and a "bubbly personality"!
I wouldnt mind being the cog in the machine if I didnt need to interact so much and could do my work in solitutde and quiet where I perform at my best, in middle school, high school, college, oh but not even there could you get away with that because of all the mandatory "group work", fuck that hell.

My official job title is Medical Technologist if you want to look it up.
Cowokers are mostly introverts. The day shifts have an older crowd but night shifts is a lot of young people. Most people are pretty friendly in the lab. The worst is dealing with the bitchy nurses and pushy doctors. It's not too bad though.
>>26096474
Actually I'm pretty sure I saw a study recently that proved the opposite. Something with an observed phenomenon where attractive women get treated better at work, and get more promotions and raises, but were less likely to get an interview if they included a picture on their resume. The two facts seemed to contradict themselves.
They found in the end it's because HR is mostly used up whores and bitter post wall sluts. They were jealous of better looking women so they wouldn't call them for interviews.
https://archive.is/O0n4J
>So the cause of the discrimination must lie elsewhere. Human resources departments tend to be staffed mostly by women. Indeed, in the Israeli study, 93% of those tasked with selecting whom to invite for an interview were female. The researchers' unavoidable and unpalatable conclusion is that old-fashioned jealousy led the women to discriminate against pretty candidates.

>get jokingly made fun of for not being as /fit/ as the other dudes
>constantly feel out of place but want to fit in
Just my experience from working at landscaping places, but I feel like warehouse work would be similar. I guess I just wasn't cut out for that kind of workplace culture. I wanted to be though.

I'm broke as fuck and my dad his wife make poverty inducing wages. Hell we're probably gonna have to move into a hotel temporarily because we can hardly afford a place. I've been applying to different places because I really, really need that extra boost to your combined income.

I punched a foreman when I used to work at a stamping plant. He had spent quite literally the whole shift up my asshole over a bunch of non-issues and I just couldn't take it anymore. When it came time to go home, I turned around, punched him, swiped out, and left. Now I work at a bowling alley. I make more than what I did at the stamping plant and my boss actually respects me. No yelling or talking down to me because he knows I'll get shit done without an issue as long as I'm not treated like dirt. Say "thanks" to me once in a while and I'll even do extra.I just like to feel appreciated.
>>26097503
It's shit
exactly how >>26097733
put it. It's a bunch of guys guys who are all douchbags and will make you feel like an outsider.

When I worked at Wendy's when I was in highschool I repeatedly told them I would not work the grill station anymore because it made me sick. On a number of occasions while working the grill I became nauseous and projectile spewed a very bright neon green vomit.
>tfw they still assigned me to the grill
>tfw i stayed at that job for a year because i was stupid
Got my first job at 14 and have never been unemployed since, top kek

I have a job interview tomorrow for a fast paced warehouse job. And honestly, this scares me more than the actual interview
>>26097503
Absolutely fun as fuck, worked at a best buy in the warehouse for two years, funnest job I've had
Saw a guy like this at an old job I worked at in the Amazon warehouse. He was always getting grief for not hitting his targets fast enough, and would just wait for ages until easy to work items came along the line instead of taking what he got.
Plenty of times I'd see the team leaders over talking to him like he was a child and I knew exactly how he probably felt because he looked extremely autistic and sheltered. They ended up retraining him but I left before I saw what his end was.
>manager micro manages
i've been dealing with this my whole life, now i have to put up with it at work too?
>tfw your boss is one of those people that get irrationally angry if you ask him to repeat something or ask a question
ILL JUST FUCK IT ALL UP THEN,I DONT MAKE COMMISSION OR ANYTHING ANYTHING ANYWAY SO FUCK IT
>overnight maintenance at Wal-Mart starts at like $2 above min wage
>do a lot of buffing (with propane powered buffer)
>mopping, sweeping, waxing (stripping too of course)
>beats the hell out of my joints
>drinking regularly and taking painkillers and using cream every day
>tell the manager I can't take it, give written notice
>they say I quit without notice and would be banned for a year of re-working
Thankfully I got into CC that fall I think.
>mother had arthritis, thought not much of it
>brother gets discs replaced in his back at 28 "probably because of working out too hard with older guys"
>find out my father, brother, and sister have a degenerative spinal disorder
>mom's side has early arthritis and bad cartilage
>pain whole life
>nobody thought to do anything or even tell me
>constantly judged for being less physically capable than others, in pain 24/7
I know it's not entirely work related, but fuck. If I could do some stupid normie physical labor, I would be working. Literally if you're not educated, 100% of your work potential is determined by family connections and muscles.

We kinda do this at my job that's also retail. Instead of asking for their name and number I ask them if they're "part of our rewards program". If they say no I move on if they say yes I just say. " I can look it up by a telephone number or email."
I used to have this same problem but so many people say no when I ask the question even though they're a part of the program because they're that stupid.
sssalll about how you word it man
>>26097484
You are describing a "hostile work environment".

>>26097965
Well thanks. Not sure how to feel about this. Guess I'll try my luck elsewhere.
I hate that demonstration shit. I can read something once and outperform a guy who's done it for years. Demonstration and return is the worst fucking method possible to train anything.
>>26091029
I once killed a man while working nightshift retail. Just joking. Though maybe.
>>26097484
Don't worry Anon, I'm the same way. My first hob was cashier, and I spent my breaks in the bathroom crying because I kept getting chewed out about my speed.
The absolute worst thing is when you are tying to keep tears back and the person won't stop yelling at you.
>>26097694
Keep your chin up, don't take it too hard if you fuck up, and do NOT watch the clock. You have no idea how slow any shift will go if your eyes are on the clock. Keep yourself occupied mentally (ideally with something related to the job) and time will fly.
>working grocery
>500 lbs of product stacked on cart
>rolling out to the aisles
>LITERALLY a few inches a faw from crushing an old man into the side of the wall
FUCK, I should've been fired for that shit, some other old guy saw and told my boss but I didnt hear a single word about it. Maybe he was a bad explainer so my boss didnt believe him idk but I still cant believe i almost killed someone
>working construction
>Always quiet, never talked or stood out
>spent two weeks just me and my foreman planting grass and spreading straw
>"Goddamnit anon you must be a fucking dumbass, can't even spread straw right"
>Do it like this Dumbass
>No anon that's fucking wrong
>Are you that fucking stupid?
>after two weeks of this shit
>C'mon Anon don't be stupid
Fuck you you ugly ass gorilla
>What the hell? You decided to grow a backbone?
I'm just sick of your shit man
>Oooohhhhh so you think you tough?
Come a little closer and I'll show you just how fucking tough I am
>Don't be like that. I just fucking with you.
My foreman verbally abused me to teach me to stand up for myself. Everyone else was confused when i got back to the main crew. I went from meek and quiet to an angry, shit-talking sonava bitch. I got alot of respect for the man. My paw paw taught him, and now he's teaching me. He gave me a huge confidence boost and knocked out most of my social anxiety.
You're a good man Gary. I really do owe you for being so patient with me.
>>26090510
>Anon, how many times do i have to tell you not to call me Mrs______? you're part of the family now that you're with my daughter. call me Janice. And we're so happy to have you here. she's been happier since she's met you.
you will never hear this
>>26098495
