08 marzo New, Secrecy Clause Signed, JobLast Wednesday I left the first ever job that it has not been a huge relief for me to see the back of.
My very first job was delivering junk mail in a hilly suburb. The job paid terribly, the junk mail was heavy, I had to fold each item to fit it into the mail boxes and Dunedin is not famous for its delightful weather. There was one time that I got caught in a torrential downfall of rain. This did however seem to seal in Mr Pigalina's mind that he should ask me out on a date. Something to do with me being in a soaking wet, white t-shirt (with Dennis the Menace on the front).
There was the job I had at a rest home when I was 16 - serving food and wiping bums, an odd combination. The day after I learnt to put on a catheter and was informed I would be learning showering I quit.
I had a few retail jobs in between and a job, for two weeks where I placed sanitary towel bins (yes, those kind) and nappy bins in to a huge dishwasher.
Then I had my job at the supermarket while I was at University. It was delightful to stand in one place for up to 8 hours a day and be talked down to by snooty ladies. They don't seem to realize that 80% of the checkout operators are their future teachers, doctors, lawyers and...customer service reps. Here is a photo of the delightful day that I left there, note the beautiful smock:
My next job was where this blog all started and you can read about some of my great experiences in the archives. As if you would. It was in an electronics store, which you think would be pretty sweet but due to lack of staff and very demanding customers I went a bit doo-lally and started hoping to get hit by a car so that I could have a few weeks time-out in hospital. I have since learnt that I could have gone onto a Sickness Benefit on the grounds of stress. Why do I never know such useful things at the time? Instead I left that job and moved to the job I spoke about at the start.
