It's this part of the job that I hate.

Well, I've got no beef with the job I'm working now, but I used to work at Harvey's Restaurant way back when. Lemme tell you, I f-cking HATED when customers came in, stoned out of their minds, and took 15 minutes to get their order in while a line formed behind them. And since we prepared their food right in front of them, they became some of the harshest directors out there with either ridiculous demands like "Can you put one more thing of relish on that? Thanks. Can you put just one more on? Thanks, man... Can I get one more..." or just getting pissed that I or someone else put too much or, more ridiculously, too little toppings on their burger or dog and ordered a new one from scratch.

Hell, the worst experience I had working there was with a woman who was clearly on something a little stronger than pot. She wanted relish on her burger, but kept refusing the relish and ordering fresh new bowls of it because she kept spotting a mythical invisible green insect in each of our relish bowls, even the completely fresh ones from the fridge. It took almost 10 minutes to garnish her burger correctly. At least she didn't come back and complain about a cold burger (which it must've been by then).

Have they EVER seen someone get away?
Actually I grew up in a bad neighbourhood and most of the time the runners/rabbits/whatever got away. Maybe it's because the cops in my old city didn't really give a shit, but to answer your question, yes, many people have seen or heard of someone get away.

I can't tell you my job woes.
You're a cop.

But suffice it to say, the pay is nonexistent and nobody appreciates my hard work.
Ah Max do you go around stuffing expired parking meters with quarters?

Hmm. The way people give me abuse. I throw it back in their faces and then I get told I have an attitude problem.

I guess when I say 'get away' i mean like when we're standing right there and t hey take off. As opposed to we are looking for them for an interview and they go in to hiding. Even still this town doesn't give up the chase for anything really, especially on foot.

Woa hold it right there son, this basically makes you a Man in Black, and that makes you completely awesome. Do you wear sunglasses too? You just have to wear sunglasses while chasing a bad guy in a suit, and leave your jacket open so your tie can flutter around. And have a rugged, evil little smile. And run in slo motion. And please don't forget the badass background music.

*ahem*

Anyway, I work in a supermarket, the worst part of my job isn't the customers, o no, it's cleaning the lowest shelves. You see, I'm a really tall guy with a crappy back and shitty knees, cleaning the lowest shelves means that I have to get down on my knees and standing up again to clean my towel over and over again for hours on end. It's ravaging my back and knees, it's awful. Why do they even let ME do that?! It's not the job you want a tall guy to do, let me work on the high stuff or something.

Why do they run? I mean I know why. Still, don't they watch cops? Have they EVER seen someone get away? We have dogs and helicopters and all kinds of lovely gadgets in my 9 years of law enforcement I have never seen someone get away clean.
I'd love to test that record.

That would be the fact that being a Student teacher I'm working a full time job... without being paid. In fact I'm PAYING THEM to let me work.

Bullcrap.

Maybe you should just consider yourself lucky you have one. I can only afford to buy one game a year with the money I get for my birthday. I hate being poor.

The worst part of my job is two-fold.

1. I work for an office at the university I go to. Almost 100% of my day is filing invoices, stamping invoices, filing paycheck reciepts, or sending checks out through mail. I never thought that it would be possible to die of boredom, but working this job 5 days a week 8 hours a day is demanding to say the least.

2. What makes the job unbearable is that I CAN'T LEAVE. The people here are very nice, and almost oblivious to the fact that the job is so dull. And, since we're in a shitty economy, I need to keep this job. So! What to do... Killing myself is out of the question, so I guess I'll just keep on keeping on until I turn into a brain-dead zombie. That'll work.

correct me if I'm wrong but you're how old? 14 or 15? You could work at a mcdonalds, mow lawns for money, or something like that. You want money you got to earn it!

Working with women who are lazy and fat/pregnant. I guess since they have a thing growing inside them for a whole month and a half now, that gives them an excuse to not do their work and dump it all off on me. While I also have to pick up on all the things that the new employees don't get right, and I also get paid the same amount that they do. BS

My job:
I work graveyard and swing shift as a data entry tech and dispatcher for a private security company

Hate:
People who can't read their association rules and then call us in the middle of the night or 6 am yelling and bitching at us because their car or their friends car got towed.

Another hate:
People who can't just talk who have to yell at us over the phone.

Another hate:
my drive to and from work. Its a good 53.5 miles one way if I'm not stopping by the bank, otherwise it is 54.2 miles. And that's just getting to work. Going home is 51.0 miles. Most of my money goes to gas and because people are idiots I usually wind up pissed off when I get to work. Especially when I work swing shift.

Another hate:
When they hire someone to do dispatch and don't train them data first and bump me out of my dispatch shifts even though I've been there and worked my ass off for over six months now. And keep asking to be put as full out dispatch.

Another hate:
When they hire someone new and all of a sudden I go from four days a week to two. Which is something happening AGAIN relatively soon. As soon as we get this new girl trained. And I hate when we get new girls in the office. They rarely ever do their fucking jobs. They flirt more with the officers than do the job. I may flirt a bit however if we are busy I am focused on my job. But my flirting I don't control its my personality.

Also, I can't quit because of the damn economy and there are NO jobs anywhere close to my house. Believe me I've been trying since well before I got my current job.

I?m feeling rather raged today. So I ask you escapist what is the worst part of your occupation? Please try not to be vague and say things like ?the customers? if you could. I?m sure you could give an example.

My Job? I?m an inspector for crimes against property for the County Sheriff that I reside in.
I?m okay with the paperwork. It?s easy overtime if you have too much. I don?t mind occasionally having a case completely stump me (okay so it?s like half the time, but I?m still doing better than the national average for cases solved). Or even telling people that their car was found wrapped around a telephone pole.

No, what I hate is the mother fucking running while wearing a suit. I have to wear a suit to work every day (except on Fridays and holidays I can wear khakis and a polo) Do you have an idea how much it sucks to chase someone for 12 minutes through a damn ditch and creek while you?re wearing a suit? And 90% of the time when the run there is NO REASON to they just fear the badge. For example today I?m canvassing a neighborhood many cars got broken into so I was asking if anyone saw anything a kid sees me coming I introduce myself and ask him ?what?s your name man?? Now most people give me their first name and that?s it.
Him? Noooooo, he just booked off running and as he was running threw a bag of cocaine into a storm drain. I mean, if he would?ve just said ?no I didn?t see anything? I would?ve been on my way none the wiser to him carrying but when he runs like that I have to chase him even if I'm plainclothes. On top of it now I have to fill out forms to get the dept to pay for the cleaning of my suit. Not to mention how effed up my shoes are.
Why do they run? I mean I know why. Still, don't they watch cops? Have they EVER seen someone get away? We have dogs and helicopters and all kinds of lovely gadgets in my 9 years of law enforcment I have never seen someone get away clean.
You know, I went into this post expecting the OP do be some kind of whiny, self-involved BS. This, however is epic.

I salute you, sir. You are much with the awesome.
He sure is.

OT:In my summer job the worst times where when we got rotten fish heads.They smell.They're hard to crack and they're full of maggots.

I know for a fact that Ace often times wears ties with superhero logos on them to work. For example the other day I met him for lunch and he was wearing a black tie with the 'venom' logo on it.
I wonder if that makes it more or less badass to you?
