I had just turned 18. I needed $200 for a cricket bat and the rest of the kit. Couldn’t bother the Bank of Ma n Pa, so decided to make the money over a weekend. A friend of mine told me about this construction company that paid $100 for a 10 hour shift and they gave temporary work on the fly. So, I did it. It was un-tiling an existing roof and then stapling new ones. It may not sound too bad but I had to get it done in 96 deg F weather with the sun blazing down.

Hmm...that's tough work.
In college, I used to work as a store manager and the work would ebb and flow with student moves. It was mentally taxing to juggle 10 things at the same time.
Re: The Worst Work (job) You've Ever Done
Aha! So THAT'S how your brain melted out :p
Re: The Worst Work (job) You've Ever Done
Yeah... but now I know how to melt others (not brains)

Working at Canada's wonderland when I was 16. I never wanted to work again.
Re: The Worst Work (job) You've Ever Done
CB - What is wonderland?. Is it anything like Michael Jackson's Wonderland?. I sympathize with your current behavior if that's the case.
Re: The Worst Work (job) You've Ever Done
Piss off. :-p
Wonderland is a non-Michael Jackson theme park.

Re: The Worst Work (job) You've Ever Done
You would want to redefine the word 'hard stuff' after going thru my experience.
