Worst job i ever had
was for this really wacked out middle-aged couple in new york city. They had established a stray animal rescue and adoption service. It was a very nice thing that they were doing but they didn't really have the resources to pull it off. They would just go around the city setting up traps and capturing dogs and cats and then bring them back to their apartment. The apartment was pretty big, but when they accumulated 200 cats and 10 full sized dogs, it didn't seem very big at all. There were cats on every surface in every room of the house except the living room (where the dogs lived) and the place stunk like something worse than death. The dogs were pretty close to being feral and seriously out of control. They would jump all over anyone who walked in the front door. This was an especially emotional occurence when the woman of the house would come home. She was about five feet tall and 85 lbs. and jesus how she would scream and moan when the dogs jumped on her. 'Get owff me gawddeammit!!Ahhh! I can't take this anymore!!!,' in the thickest new york accent with the whiniest tone. I still sometimes hear it in my sleep. My job was to feed all of the cats and dogs and scoop all 20 litter boxes. It would take me 4 or 5 hours. It was definitly the shittiest job I've ever had.

Biggest idiot I never worked with
I had a temp job in a factory, Rymans stationery I think it was, real no-brain floor sweeping stuff.
First day, Monday, another temp was supposed to start but he did not turn up.
Next day, Tuesday, he turns up.
" Where were you yesterday?" says boss man.
" Well I turned up but I could not find the way in" says turnip head. "So I went home and phoned the agency and they told me where the door is so I came in today because I was too tired yesterday after coming in and going home again"
Boss man told him to fuck off.
