I hate not having one.

Bummer - hope the new year is a better one for you!

Working a 40 hour week every week and getting paid 3 euro an hour.
Its hard going. I'd be better off on the dole at home.

Not self employed. Im an intern in lufthansa. Its considered part of my college schedule.

But its 8 months of scrabbling for cash.

Then again give it 2 years and i hopefully should be on proper money working as an actual engineer.

It's not the job I particularly dislike, it's just some of the people. I'm a sales assistant in a very busy shop and some people are just insanely rude and ungrateful. Most folks are nice, but others are just plain ignorant.

I understand exactly what you mean, I used to have a job like that until I went back to college this year. That's why, whenever I'm dealing with a sales assistant as a customer, I go out of my way to be as rude and ungrateful as possible just so they to could hate their job and have the courage to quit and improve their lives. I consider that my gift to the world.

You're welcome world.

The Job: Reception

Reasons to hate it:
1. 8 hours sitting at a desk getting fatter by the day
2. New ban they have brought in, no internet use for non business purposes....ehhhh what am I suppose to do when Ive done all my work & other bits Ive found to keep me amused & Ive still 6.5 hours of my shift left??
3. Cliques(sp) little pally groups which include some management & some staff that tattle tale & ruin working relationships.
4. Did I mention not being allowed use the internet(although Im doing that now)
5. Watching our sister company being brought in here for Christmas lunch & being given their fat envelopes, while we didnt get so much as a ''thank you for your work throughout the year''.
6. Loads of other stuff that I cant be bothered mentioning because Im lucky to have a job the way the country is going.

Why do employers expect their employees to go above & beyond their roles yet dont give them any sort of thanks.....Its not that difficult to say ''thanks'' is it?

Rant over.......Rar!

Before anyone comments on the whole thanks issue...I know Im paid to do my job but Im only paid to do 40 hours....its when Im going over those hours & not getting paid for it, yes I do expect some sort of thanks.

my manager had a go 2 days ago about not utilising the right hand side of my desk properly, the fckin desk is 6ft long, didn't address appaling lack of staff and the fact that we usually have to buy our own office stationary cause the hotel is so tight arsed.

Total David Brent and Gareth moment.:mad:

I am in College studying Business and Management. I work part time in a call centre my boss is the same age as I am. She studied for a year as a beauty therapist. How very dare she tell me that she know best.

"I am the manager here, I think I know what I am talking about"

If the fu*king question was what shade of nails she should go, fine it wouldnt bother me. She has her little clique too that everyone hates. I've luckily learned to keep my head down and not ruffle any feathers because know that they are looking to get rid of people to cut costs. In my opinion, my manager should be the first to go. Oh did I mention she is ugly as sin too? She looks like a slid-in ****e.

Wow, its true, venting on the internet does make ya feel better...
