Warehouse worker. The men would openly talk about my body, as if I wasn’t there. I lasted a month. So basically an entire month longer than I should have.

Putting my hand up a chickens arse and pulling its guts out for 8 hours a day was 10 times better than the retail management job I left to go and do that

I went for a job interview and the manager said, "We're looking for someone who is responsible."

"Well, I'm your man." I replied, "In my last job, whenever anything went wrong, they said I was responsible."

Oh god a fucking farm chucking out all the ugly potatoes.

Only did it for a summer before I felt I was losing my fucking mind. The machines were so loud you couldn't even chat to anyone. Just stand and, throw away a disgusting looking potato when it comes.

I forgot about that til now. Thanks team.

I mean the one that I walked out of on the first morning as the package didn't match what they'd promised was grim. Or the one I walked out on after being propositioned wasnt great either. But I guess the one where i was systematically bullied over several months before attempting suicide wins this title by a considerable margin!

Started as a production operative at a crappy window company ended up doing the line equipment maintenance, fabrication and welding, store room assist, loading and unloading and product line work all with no pay increase and a redundancy notice at the end as a thank you.

Tampon packer.

Nope I’m not even joking. They came into the factory loose in massive cardboard boxes, would get dumped into a trough above a conveyor belt lined with people. Person at the start would fold and hot glue the little cardboard board that goes on the shop shelve. That goes onto the line and everyone down the line grabs a handful of tampons and stuffs them into the small box. Which then goes into…. You’ve got it, another big box. So mind numbing !!

Believe it or not.

Milk man.

I've been in the building trade over 35 years.

I briefly tried to get out and milk man was way harder.

Ridiculously long hours poor working conditions and crap money.

Used to start before midnight and if I was lucky I'd get home around 2 in the afternoon 6 days a week then Sunday doing my books.

Getting chased by muggers in the middle of the night,no toilet facilities, attacked by badgers Foxes and dog's.

Constantly covered in spiders from walking into webs.

Lonely and relentless workload.

Manager of weekly credit finance company specialising in high risk clients. I had the unenviable task of having single parents crying their eyes out for a high interest small loan which I knew they wouldn't be able to keep up the payments on which if I didn't deliver on, Christmas wasn't going to happen for their two point four children. Needless to say having been born with a conscience I didn't last long in that job.

I think I had an interview with them, doorstep collections for the repayments? I didn't last the interview, not least because being mugged was apparently a real risk!

As a lad my mother did lots of veg/fruit picking and I went with her. When I was a little older I spent a season potato picking. Hardest work ever.

I got a job in a local seafood factory many years ago.....the day i started, i had a 2 hour induction, followed by being put to work on the factory floor.

My job involved taking trays of flash frozen fish from a conveyor belt, and stacking them on pallets....1 and a half hours later it was lunchtime.....i walked out to my car and kept driving.....it was sucking my soul !

After leaving school I got a job working in an old fashioned fish processor. On what is called the "North wall" in Grimsby. A concrete structure sticking out into the North sea. In Winter it was bitter. We used to v-bone sea bream and they had buckets of hot water on the bench to dip our hands in periodically to stop frostbite. Skinning catfish in open machines when you could not feel your fingers was a risk. Blast freezer with no protection. Deliveries stood on the back of an old truck wending its way around the dock, throwing heavy blocks of frozen fish. And more

Trussing chickens in a refrigerated factory... I lasted 2 days, it was like I had suddenly developed chronic arthritis and I could barely move my fingers... And having to walk past lorries full of clucking chickens didn't help either
