“60 Shocking First-Day Stories: What Made These Employees Walk Out for Good?”
First room had a pile of toe nails on the beside table, gross but whatever, I’ve got gloves.
Second room someone p*ssed on THE PHONE! I asked where the replacements were and my trainer told me to just wipe it. It was a landline, there was p**s inside of it! WTF
Third room had c*m in the window sill. Another WTF. I noticed the window faced a playground across the street. I quit right there.
The owners daughter showed up to open 1.5 hours late. Said she thought her mom had given me keys. Proceeded to tell me to unload her car before I could come in and clock in. I locked her keys in her car and left.
I applied to a local newspaper for advertising sales, thinking I would be making a lot of cold calls, instead I was being trained on ways to sneak past things like front desk reception so that I could knock directly on a business owners office doors. This was in a small town where I knew a lot of the local business owners already and the thought of behaving that way around people I had known my whole life was just distasteful, that and learning there was no wage, just commission.
I did that first day of training and then at the end of the day gave them back all the training materials and apologized for wasting their time, but that I couldn’t see myself doing very well at that job.
I was in high school, working 3 part time jobs. I had gotten hired as a cashier at a supermarket. I really just wanted to be a stock boy, but oh well.
I show up to work and the manager isn’t there. So I just start asking people like, hey I’m new how do I clock in? What do I do?
