This is a question Now, there was no need for that...

Tell us about the times when an already difficult situation has been made worse for no good reason. Pollollups writes, "As if being given a muscle relaxant and trapped in an MRI tube wasn't bad enough: whilst thus immobilised, they played me Dido."

re another crap job
Warner Lamberts boiled sweets factory. radcliffe Manchester

It was a summer student type job and the pay was good but...
1) 10 hour shifts of putting bags of sweets into cardboard boxes.
2) Working with old women who were paid on a production bonus so they would go totally fucking mental if you accidently packed 300 bags into the wrong box / came back from tea break 15 mins late.
3. You had to wear clothes provided by the company that were %100 Nylon. These combined with the static build up on the sweet machines meant that you got massive static shocks every time you reached for a new bag.

And (no need bit) our ear defenders had radios in them and 'Midnight at the Oasis' by Brand New Heavies was on every hour. I fucking hated that song before I started the job, nevermind after hearing it 10 times a day for 3 months.
