Just as the title says, speak on some of your jobs in the past and some funny or fun shit you experienced there.



Me, my first job was at age 14. I was selling newspaper subscriptions for the San Francisco Chronicle and Examiner (before it was free).

We would get picked up in a big ass beat up van and then get dropped off in a certain part of the City, and then just have to hustle.

We used to tell folks it was a program to help keep us out of trouble, and that we were using the proceeds towards our college education.

LOL...

That couldn't be further from the truth.

We were getting payed CASH, tax-free, every single Saturday.

I was making like $700+ every week, CASH. I remember we used to always get dropped off in Chinatown after work on Saturdays and blow our money on stuff like throwing knives and ninja stars and other dumb shit.

First job I ever had was Price Chopper. Didn't care for it at all. I bagged groceries. There wasn't much else to it. There were a few things I hated about it though:

1) PEOPLE NOT PAYIN' ATTENTION
When I ask if you want paper or plastic, thats not the time to fiddle around in your wallet/purse for money. Nor should you try to remember if you've forgot somethin'. Don't wait until you get to the front of the line and tell me you forgot the heads of lettuce you were supposed to get. ITS CALLED A GROCERY LIST...USE IT!

2) KIDS IN THE CARTS
If your kids can walk, take their little asses out the cart. I have to put your groceries in the cart. The more room I have, the better.

3) PULLIN' CARTS
This sucked! Especially during the summer when it was hot as fuck outside.

K-MART
I remember one instance where this lady came through my aisle. No problem, right? WRONG! She was in a wheelchair and decided to bitch about how the aisle wasn't wheelchair accessible. What she failed to realize was that there was a wheelchair accessible aisle, only it wasn't mine. It was the last aisle.


Chuck E. Cheese

1) KID CHECK
I put the stamp on you and your child's hand to ensure that if you came together, you left together. Don't ever ask my WHY I put the stamp on your hand again!

2) CHUCK E. CHEESE (COSTUME)
I hated wearin' the damn thing. I'd be in the back makin' pizzas and thats when some dumb bitch wants to ask me if I'll be Chuck E. FUCK THAT! Its hot as fuck in that damn thing. Nevermind the little bastards tuggin' on you when you get out there. From time to time, there'll be a kid or two thats scared of Chuck E and will cry their eyes out. Okay. So, why bring your kid there knowing he or she is scared of Chuck E?

My first job at 13 was pretty cool. I worked for a gas station attached to a strip mall. I use to hide in the soda cooler, drinking whatever the hell I wanted to and hiding in the last bay on the floor and stare up at the girls that came in wearing dresses in the summertime.

I lost that job by driving a Honda 750 motorcycle through an overhead door on the back side of the building. I crashed through the door, the bike slid thirty feet all the way to the front window inside the building, and I lied about it. The only problem with my lie was the woman who owned the building saw me get on the bike, and heard the crash a few minutes later.

i started off working at a lumber yard on monument in concord did that for a few summers. it was cool being outside and getting exercise while working but it was hot as fuck. used to get sunburned like a motherfucker the first couple weeks of sun then my skin would get used to it. one day i just quit going to work and didnt answer any of their calls and that was that hahaha.

then i worked at a pool store. it was a gay ass job but all my coworkers burned and we used to smoke tree out back with the kids who worked at domino's next door. we got this asian immigrant dude who delivered pizzas for domino's high for his first time. i guess he was all fucked up and had to go home haha.

i also worked at a christmas tree lot for a few winters and that was teh shit. i ahd a pickup so i would deliver and set up trees. made hella money in tips and scammed the lot for a bunch of stands and sole em for 90$ a pop cash when the tree didnt fit in the persons stand.

now i work at a construction company as a project engineer when i'm not at school. its a cool ass job and i make good money

Worst Job - Clean Up crew @ Con Agra Foods. Basically, we cleaned the chicken plant before USDA inspections. They did everything you can do with chicken there, from making hotdogs to hotwings, bonless/skinless breats to shipping all the chicken feet to China........

Easiest Job - Bingo Hall ticket seller. If you can deal with the smoke it's an easy cash gig. I handcuffed an extra bill on top of my nightly pay everyday. I think I took to much, because my boss start letting me call no's for a couple of nights, then he fired me the first night they let me sell cards..... lol
