Whats the worst job you ever had?
post up
mine was just outta HS i worked a summer at Owens Corning fiberglass
union wages ($4.25/hr), set hours etc
Owens Corning makes fiberglass insulation. Basically molten glass is blown onto a moving conveyor belt, goes thru an oven, comes out the other side where its dyed whatever color is appropriate, and is then precision trimmed with these large moving knives. something like 20ft/minute.
the scraps fall on the floor where they're hosed into a 40' X 40" X 10" deep pit.
my job was to climb into the pit, shovel the wet dyed fiberglass into 50gal drims and then hoist the drum out with an overhead crane. then repeat etc.
fucking dye on your clothes, fiberglass in your eyes/hair/lungs, loud machinery, low lighting and everyone smoking in your face
never had it so good at the time
