What are some of or THE worst job(s) you've ever had?
Man I remember working at UPS preload from 2011-2014. In the prime of my 20's, in and out of college, wasting away in that factory with guys who've been there for 25+ years. Loading trucks from 2 am - 8 am. Peak seasons
Unloading trucks too. Get home at 8 am exhausted, shower and rush to class 40 minutes away everyday. Body aches. Freezing cold winters - blazing hot summers. Caught a hemorrhoid once from all the strenuous lifting. Tried to call in, wouldn't let me. Had to work with a hemorrhoid sticking out my butt
Eventually broke down inside one of the trucks and about a few months later, I put in my 2 weeks. Couldn't do it. Didn't even have another job lined up.
Also worked at MasterBrand Cabinets for 2 months in Talladega, Alabama. Seeing all my black people at such a dead end job really depressed me. Young black people too. It was awful.
Worked at a place named Aerflow for like a week. It was out in the middle of nowhere in Eastaboga, Alabama. They made tarps and sports equipment. I'm sure its closed down by now. Place was on its last breath when I was there.
I just knew there was something better in life for me and I kept searching till I found it (Going to school to be a teacher in the fall)
Let me here some of those stories.

Whats kind of nonsense. Them factories get so hot in the summer heat especially down here in Alabama. I'd be ready to fight if a breh tried to keep me from drinking water.
