Im 16 years old and I work in a concrete construction company. Needless to say, we travel all over the fricking place. Today, I put in 11 hours of work, of non stop pouring concrete. Work sucks big time.

Anyways, and reasons why your job sucks as well?

Nope, I like my job ^^ This job, at least. I can tell you zillions of reasons why my previous jobs sucked. I work at Victoria's Secret and it's pretty easy peasy work and the people I work with are pretty nice, too!

I hated my last job because of the company's poor ethics. It was miserable.

My current job is just student. It's... alright. I'm freaking tired though.

Works sucks but it pays well I guess. Work sucks even more when you're working for family. The whole work dynamic changes when you throw family into the mix, and you quite frankly cannot stand to be around them any other time because of it. I work in paper conversion and it looks like I'm going to be forced to put in those long hours soon too. Weekend work, yay. :rolleyes2

Last job paid well and the work was bearable. Being who I am, I threw it all away for a far lower paying research position which may me only marginally more interesting. :rolleyes:

Not having work sucks more. I speak from jaded and excessive experience on this matter.

Though hopefully an extremely good thing is coming up sometime in the next few weeks/months. If it does I'll have a steady and enjoyable job for at least two years, I should expect.

Work does suck, though. We're all Commies at heart!

I'm doing Payroll for 200 employees right now. Having all of those people depend on you not screwing up their paycheques is a bit stressfull at times.

Just got a job as a Cart Attendant at Target. I was just getting training on the proper disposal of chemicals and how to not get infected with HIV. Oh yeah, fun stuff.

Lucky. That's actually what I would rather be doing. I've always enjoyed payroll. Too bad Accountemps is a bit too retarded to find me something like that. They just kept offering Accounts Payable positions for $13.00 an hour and passing up the cushy payroll jobs that were paying $17-19 an hour.

I work Tech support. *win*
I deal with people who don't know the difference between a mouse. (Computer) and a Mouse. (*squeak* *squeak*) I also deal with people who think they know everything and just make my job 5 times more difficult.

I love my job.

I'm 17 and I work at an arcade, I have enough problems there and I've only been working for a couple of weeks. But we've all been through this. It doesn't necessarily suck, it's okay, and it pays a lot better than my last job.

My part time job isn't so bad since I only do 12 hours a week, on a checkout. I'd get so bored if I did it ALL the time. The job I will hopefully have soon, I'll enjoy soooo yeah. I just don't like to work too much.

Work dosen't suck, it only sucks if you're doing something you don't like.

I don't work at the minute, but I will do when I turn 18 soon. I'm not gonna be feeling bad about it really, because it'll give me money, so I'll be happy. :p

Umm...yeah, it would be silly to say work sucks if you are actually doing something you enjoy. Wouldn't you agree? My guess is that 80% of all employees are only working at their jobs because of the money, not because it's something they love to do. If you're part of the other 20%, good for you. :P

What I do kinda sucks. I get paid good. I clear lots with rented tractors, dig 1' deep and 10" wide treches all the way around modual homes (which is rather difficult when the ground is half gravel and all you got is a shovel), and put up fast track on the homes. I get paid goodIn the desert during the summer. Over the 100s. I'm just glad I don't turn red. Then again I can travel like 4 or something hours away to get to work.

My old job sucked, I worked in a take away, got paid £4.50 an hour for serving food to people and cleaning, not fun. Being the lazy ass I am, I quit and now work for my parents doing housework and things, and being a student isn't that much hard work either. ;)
