DUDE. I've swung a sledge on construction sites for summers in college. I've done clerical work. I've stocked shelves in supermarkets for Keebler. I've moved furniture. I've delivered newspapers. And, my number one crappy summer job is reserved for barroom conversation. It'll cost you two beers to extract that one outta me. Maybe Steve will do this this summer.ORIGINAL: Onime No Kyo

For summer work for young guns, that's usually enough. I've quite the laundry list of sh** summer jobs that I did just for a summer paycheck-I suspect most of us have. It builds character and all that rubbish.ORIGINAL: Terminus
They do, and by the hour. That's the only upside (for them).
Dude! Youre from Palisades. Your crap jobs involved lattes. [:'(]

Hey, man. I'm hearing a lot of judgement here. You need to embrace the cultural norms of your new home, homey. Live the tractor pulls, dream about 'testicle festivals'.ORIGINAL: AW1Steve

It beats the hell out of having to drive to Chicago! (for me a 500 mile drive!).[:(]
Steve, did you get there in time for the College World Series? [:)]
I was in town , yes. Did I get to see them? Alas no.I also missed the "testical festival". So I'm holding out for the Nebraska and Iowa state fairs. Tractor pulls baby![X(][8|][:(]

Tomorrow I have to go tell two young men that we hired for the summer to box and move a shit-load of files that they've wasted the first week of work in 10000-degree weather, and they'll have to move everything back again. I hate my job.
its worse when you apply for a job....get a rejection email 24 hours later telling you that you are not suitible, then log back onto the job website the next day and find a fresh posting....by that same company for the same job they just told you you were not being considered for....thus eliminating the feel good excuse that "well maybe they already filled the position...."
Makes one feel real competant.

You're not in the Chicago area are you?

Well, I ducked and I weaved and I sweated and I whined and it looks like I've put my little situation here at work back on track.
Just one thing: we can now no longer use the word "files" as it applies to patient-related paperwork. It's now called "strawberries".

What's the reason for the code word for files? Or is there a reason? [:D]
