:rolleyes:

Wow there were 2:dunno:

[~Leah~]

Job 1:
Best: no one in the office bothers me to do anything

Worst: Being the only voice on the other end of SportChek's 1-800 number for customer service... I'm sure you can guess


Job 2:
Best: discounted food and dessert (that I have yet to take advantage of anyway) at Cheeeeesecake Cafe

Worst: Picky customers


Job 3:
Best: free gym membership, even though I work out at the office at Job 1 every morning, pushing other people further than they thought they could go

Worst: Getting paid only once a month

[steverules]

likes: I work with some sweet people, easy job!

Dislikes: can get repititve and boring!

[/////AMG]

Best: Slack off whever I want. Walk around doing shit all and drooling over hot chicks (best in the summer :drool:).
Make a living hell for already pissed off british motorists.

Worst: Abusive customers, the weather (when cold), shit pay and only gettign paid once a month too.

[HiSpec]

Best: 330pm-12am shift, access to all the tools i need, get to test flight all sorts of aircraft, and get to check out flight attendants

Worst: 330om-12am shift, sometimes have to work outside regardless of rain/snow or shine, waiting for an delayed aircraft

[scat19]

Best: 7-3:30, mon-fri.

Worst: Im 19, next youngest person? 42.

[redx2nv]

Best: Good money, work on the largest equipment in the world.

Worst: Easily able to get injured, 94 hours a week, getting up at 5:30

[shedboy]

best: 7 days on, 7 days off
worst: 2nd lowest paid shop in the the city so we have a high employee turnover rate which leaves me constantly working with dumber and dumber people every time someone gets hired. the one guy might actually be handicapped, i've been "training" him for 2 months. i really gave up after day 1

[Ben]

Best: I love IT, the industry and technology, so it works out perfect for me. I have always been into problem solving and making things work. Plus I have a great boss, great co-workers, and work for a good company. I like working with servers and networks, and have variety, instead of doing one simple task for 9 hours a day.

Worst: There's nothing I really dislike about it where I wake up and hate going to work. There are small quirks, such as printers I dislike due to their interfaces, sometimes they just work, and other times they can be a real pain in the ass when on a network. Also, there's the odd time where people just dont explain their problems well, or are very computer illiterate, so you find yourself taking something the wrong way because the way they explain it, it sounds like something else, but from their level it's another thing. Comes down to reminding yourself that not everyone is good with computers and thats why I have a job. It used to frustrate me (PEBKAC) but now it's alllll good.

The Pros are far greater than any Cons (if there are any)

[cityhunter2501]

Well whats your hourly pay, and devide that by 4 instead of 12.

Sounds like you're getting more than fair for work done. Of course In My Humble Opinion. :dunno:
