teleamarketer was mine. >:(

Hi there! :) :D

I mean a couple years ago when you asked me what was my worst job I would have a really large list to greet you. Nevertheless after working hard to build my business to the way I want and doing many jobs earning to just have my bills take my hard earn money. Made me realize no job is bad as long as it pays. :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose:

I would have to disagree.  Some jobs are much better than others.  I have had jobs that I absolutely hated.  And jobs that I liked.  The one job that comes to mind for me, yes it paid the bills, but I hated everything about it. And I would say was probably the worst job I have ever had in my life.

Hi! :) :D

Ya I understand that it is very important to enjoy your job somewhat as you will be doing it for a while. :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose:

Nah, it was a seasonal job. I knew I was going to be laid off when they closed for the season. And I knew I was not going to go back when the next season opened up. haha

I had a job sanding some metal parts all day and I would say that was the worst job I ever had. I only worked there one day but it felt much longer.

I would have to say that working on a farm as a teen(picking cotton, picking onions, etc.) would have to be my worst.  I survived and I am better for it.

One summer I worked as a roofer and we installed the rubber roofs. It was horrible and extremely hot.

I worked in a factory for 3 days while in college.  It was so mundane.  I couldn't handle the mindless work.  I need something that engages my brain and requires mental effort. 
Funny how life changes, I was just thinking today how much I like doing these surveys, because it's mundane mindless work and I don't even need to think to get paid.

How can you give honest thought out answers to the surveys if you do not even think and are just mundanely clicking just to get paid.

Simple, that statement only applies to the 95% where I don't qualify, so thinking is unnecessary.

I would think going door to door for anything would not be a good experience. People do not want to be bothered and they don't want strangers coming to their door interrupting what they are doing. Or wanting to come in to their homes. I don't answer my door if I don't know who is on the other side. I usually do not even acknowledge them. Sometimes I will ask what they want. Some woman came to the door a few years ago claiming to be selling magazine subscriptions to pay for her college LOL.  Uh huh.

In todays times the love of the greater # has cooled off so it would be harder to go door to door.

People dont even wanna answer their phones let alone answer their door.

Funny how i could remember being able to walk the streets at night and never locking your door at night.

Critical times hard to deal with was told long ago and they have been here.

Have no fear.Trump will MAGA!!LOL!!

BTW,i love my job and can do it forever.

I never had a job I hated and I've had a few non-thinking jobs but when I did, I would challenge myself to do more than the day before. IOW, I worked at a bearing manufacturer. I had the hardest machines because my hands were small and there was one machine that no one could produce more than 2500 bearings a shift. These bearings were solid by they had to go into the press in a certain way, which meant flipping them. I would do 5,000 a night. Another machine were weird shaped, reminded me of vases but they had to go in the machine on their neck, not the round vase bottom. Challenging - got stuck on that one every week.  I did get bored after 2 years and quit. :D
