Cosmic Joe Posted October 9, 2017 Share Posted October 9, 2017 Trying to cheer myself up. Always someone worse off than yourself etc. There must be loads of really crap jobs out there. For instance, in the chippy tonight my attention was drawn to the jars of pickled onions on the shelf. The silverskin ones as opposed to the jumbo feckers they serve with the suppers. Imagine being in the peeling department in the factory... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ICTChris Posted October 9, 2017 Share Posted October 9, 2017 I never had a Saturday job when I was at school, I did various bits and bobs for people instead, The first proper job I had was working as a kitchen porter in the Pancake Place in Inverness when I was 17, in the summer I left school. I was paid £2.65 / hour and on my first day I had to break 100 eggs into plastic containers and then clean two stand up chest deep fat fryers. I left after two weeks to get a job in a prawn processing plant, where you spent all day packing various sizes of prawns into plastic trays. I think I got paid £3.10 an hour there. I lasted three weeks before going to work nights stacking shelves at Tescos. Brutally horrible place, you would absolutely stink of fish, I took up smoking to get rid of the smell. There were some rough, rough people there. One guy got the job because if he didn't start earning his ex-wife wasn't going to let him see his daughter. He got sacked on his second day for spraying someone with a hose. On my first day I found out that me and my mate were the only people who had bank accounts to be paid in, everyone else was paid in cash. Nuts.

My van boy was about 11st and he could also easily carry full couches, washing machines, 90kg of flat packed wardrobes- it’s all about the balance you get when you tip it of the back of the truck. As long as you lift with your knees, you'll be fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A washing machine on the back sounds a bit extreme tbf. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some woman we all hated used to get a kilo tub of some sandwhich spread mix every week which lay in despatch till she finished her shift. We used to blow our noses in the mix, spit in it, put pubes in it the lot. Then we found out later she was making up pieces for disabled kids or something I know.

The Chlamydia Kid Posted October 9, 2017 Share Posted October 9, 2017 I know. I don’t know what kind of places you’ve worked in your day but I can assure you that such behaviour is mild when your in a factory of barely employable, Neanderthals in Bellshill.

You should have detached yourself from the story and said it was only your coworkers who did the spitting/putting pubes in her food. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Finch road Posted October 9, 2017 Share Posted October 9, 2017 If you ate any biscuits from Walkers circa 93, my fingers had probably been all over them. So glad you are blocked, monotonous humerlous piece of shit. I hope you get an incurable venereal disease Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
welshbairn Posted October 9, 2017 Share Posted October 9, 2017 11 minutes ago, The Chlamydia Kid said: With the size of them you could only use one arm as it would be wedged on your shoulder and one arm to retain balance. I can’t believe some of the crap folk would accuse you of lying about on here... And you would go round narrow staircases and through doorways like a breeze no doubt, after that the washing machines on one shoulder would be a dream.

Finch road Posted October 9, 2017 Share Posted October 9, 2017 AlsoI worked removals for a good while and can confirm with the Airdrie fan that balance is everything. Have seen a guy taking a safe on his back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
