my job was basicaly to go through a shitload of boxes, check if the code matches the code on the list, then check how many components were in each bag, then note down wether it was one or more
I worked 77 hour weeks for $10CAD an hour
I'm not fit for physical work
and I was standing hunched over
for 8 hours
my back fucking hurt like shit
I felt like goddamn quasimodo
Sounds like shit
That’s why you squat
table was too high
I checked 594 boxes the first day
859 boxes the second day
Squat on the table, gopnik it up
I do not at all miss handling drywall
Get a clipboard
I finished the list, went to hand it in
it was on a clipboard
84 pages of it
finished that
finished an entire wall of boxes
handed in the papers
''oh here's the next 35 pages''
so I go back
I mean it sucks but ok we carry on
45 more minutes till end
even though I hurried on the last boxes
I sit down for just a second
manager yells at me for taking a 1 minute break
never felt like what I didn't matter to such an extent
Yeah I would've quit too m8
went to the jobs office to say I quit the job
they told me they gave a notice I worked too slow and were looking for someone else
id a found a job before qutting
I did more than 2 boxes a minute
for 7 hours
cause living of microwave noodles and tinned hotdogs isnt fun
and even better
I totally relate. Already worked 77 hour weeks for those guys for two years. On $10CAD an hour.
I come close to getting fired for sitting on the job. Fast forward a month, a week before Christmas.
The bosses are on a cruise. Phones me up to lay me off while he is laying on the deck of a cruise ship in the Caribbean
when I started, I asked what tempo I should strive for.
I litterally asked them this
