Strangely enough, I have -sort of- enjoyed every job I've ever had. Of course they all had their ups and downs, but I have never had any real complaints.

I once was the administrative assistant to the wicked witch of the West! She would yell at me constantly, deride me and blame me for everything that went wrong in the department. She would purposefully - not give me work to do and then say that I wasn't doing my job. She was a nightmare, but if you're ever in a situation like that - don't quit - that's exactly what they want. The whole department was full of overweight women who were terribly jealous of me. Fortunately, not all jobs are like this. She watched my every move and had my computer under survelilance from her office. She would scream for things like dropping my pen on the floor or puttng up decorations for the holidays when asked to do so by someone superior to her. It was an awful attempt to destry my self esteem confidence and integrity. However, I was only nice to her in return which inflamed her even more. Eventually the company offered me a severance package in exchange for not suing them because they knew that I had grounds. The great thing is - the day I started looking for a new job - I had recruiters all over me and I found a much better paying job and a much better company.

The worst job I ever had was to toilet train people. These were all people with mental disabilities and were not little toddlers/preschoolers. My work was right in their homes each day until the person learned to be toilet trained, and then I would move on to the next person.
I'm glad I was able to help, but, it wasn't the greatest job!

I got a job at a factory making speedometers. It was ten hours of standing in one spot doing the same small movement over and over. It was SO BORING it seriously felt like I'd died and gone to hell. It was also NIGHT SHIFT! I only made it two days.

The one where the receptionist was having an affair with the married boss. She made a cake that was a giant breast, with detailed parts. I was expected to join in the fun.

Telemarketing for a vinyl siding company. Never have I felt so rude as when I had to give the company sales pitch to unsuspecting people.
