My first job was at Wendy's restaurant. I had never had a job before cuz honestly it wasn't so bad, I just remember it being extremely stressful. Just something about being in a small environment with hot stoves and oil with like 5 other people having to do French fries and coping with the stigma of being a fast food worker, I lasted a week before I said nope.

My worst job though was working for an ice delivery company. It was right after the housing market crashed and I guess the owners decided they could make way more money hiring college kids during the summer and not provide adequate ice movng dollies(now they have them, but when I worked there they were all broken) they also went from paying drivers 30/hr to commission in ice delivery which came out to $10/hr. The truck and constant change in temperature is not healthy on top of that, we had to load ice on broken dollies and it was always a bitch delivering to inner city liquor stores where the roads are uneven, you would load 50 5lb bags on the dolly or 20 20lb bags of ice and pray your shit stays on that dolly otherwise you drop a heavy load and can break shit in the store, hurt people, or yourself. The management was very nice, I did this for 5 months then came to my senses and quit that shit. Oh, then there was the stress of driving that big ice truck around, and delivering freezers to new stores, man those shits are heavy. Did I mention no one opens the door for the delivery man, even if he's carrying 400lbs of ice, oh and don't get me started on stores with stairs.
