What Was Your Worst Job?

For me it was parking enforcement officer. I was insulted, threatened and hated almost daily. Had to give it up. What about you?

I don't tell many people this,but I used to be a security officer at a hospital.I hated it so bad,because every night the hospital would get psych patients,and alot of them were violent.It was mandatory that we carried a sidearm,so anything could happen

I was a great patient, so patient ievrnhad the patience to wait in a lock up room four hours @nate2244

@Mona86 Ha ha,now if you were a patient at the hospital I was working at,I would actually treat you like a human being instead of locking you in the observation room

I eventually asked for a sandwich and a juice@nate2244
nate2244 · 41-45, M
@Mona86 Well,I always made sure to bring the patients coffee,let them call home,and smoke even if the nurses fussed at me.

No I never smoked only once but not like all the other patients @nate2244

@nate2244 Did that for a spell too and hated it! The patients were fucking nuts!

@Mona86 Now hospitals treat smoking like it is the worst thing ever,but back in the day,the nurses actually smoked inside of the hospital

@Bernie2 I feel for you there.I wouldn't wish that on anyone.
Bernie2 · 51-55, M
@nate2244 I know there was one guy I worked with who was pretty violent back to the patients, especially the younger & female ones.
nate2244 · 41-45, M
@PlainNCool Me too,I'm sure it felt more like a family back then.

@Bernie2 Some people should definitely not be wearing any badge.Thats for sure.
Bernie2 · 51-55, M
@nate2244 Riiiiight, exactly what some of the more together patients and some of the staff said but they could never catch him doing it.
nate2244 · 41-45, M
@Bernie2 That's terrible.I would have definitely had someone investigating that.
Bernie2 · 51-55, M
@nate2244 They did try but he was too clever to be caught.

@Bernie2 I know this would have probably taken some resources,but they probably should have sent someone undercover as a patient to see how he acted.Someone like that reminds me of pornstache on the show orange is the new black.
