I have two bad ones, but I was in one shorter than the other.

1. Telemarketer. $12/hr in high school is a good wage ~~ but not worth it when you're selling death insurance (casket and burial) to little old ladies via scare tactics.

2. Waitress at Frisch's (kinda like a Denny's or IHOP). 24 hours and people constantly NOT showing up for their shifts. One time I worked 21 hours without a break....and waitressing work is HARD. The worst was the late shift...we were right near a campus and the drunks would come to us after the bars closed ot eat pancakes. Then they would throw up in the booths, or leave NO tip (and I earned a whopping $2.13/hr). Also, drunk men CANNOT pee straight.

<sigh> Good memories.
