This is to be an open topic where everyone can rant and rave about their crappy job...
======================================================
This is why i hate my job...i work at a packaging/production plant.  i work on the production side and we do powdered drinks.  the product that we are working on now is kinda an off brand koolaid...dyes the crap out of your skin...takes weeks for the stuff to come out...

but thats not why i hate my job...

the reason that i hate my job is because they hire through a temp service...nothing against the whole temp thing, thats how i got the job in the first place...its just that they recently changed to a bottom of the barrel temp service and now we cant keep anyone around who speaks english (again, not trying to offend anyone, its just hard to tell someone what to do when they dont know the diffrence between a pallet jack and a mop bucket---yea, it happend to me...)
anyways. this week has been horrible...first i had a spanish man working with me...nice guy, knew some english, but couldnt read it.  my supervisor got rid of him quick too bad he was a good worker.
next we got some guy who was laid off from a construction job for a few weeks...well, no sense trying to train someone who will only be around till next week or so....bye bye buddy...
now today i get a 20 yr old whiteboy (speaks/reads english) who appears to be a good worker...YAY!!! i dont have to work alone!!!

NOT!!!!!!

one of the other temps decided to go home sick and i got screwed over and the super took my buddy away to help out where the sicky left....

ARGH!!!!!!!

thats why i hate my job.
If you define cowardice as running away at the first sign of danger, screaming and tripping and begging for mercy, then yes, Mr. Brave man, I guess I'm a coward.

I'm a mobilty technition. Which basically means I work on power wheelchairs and electric scooters. Some of the equipment I have to work on is covered with feces,urine,vomit,and spilled food and drink. I have to drive to the customers home so I drive about 300-500 miles a day. Some of these people are old bitter angry wastes of flesh. I think I'll just drive into a tree on my 70th birthday so I don't end up like that.
I've never seen anyone own the woods because of what marker they use.

L. Ron Hubbard. He founded scientology. Sounds like he was right on the money, no pun intended.

Yup, he actually said that.

Maybe you should learn to write English yourself and get a better job so you dont have to deal with people that are dumb?

I must say I am impressed that you have a job. Keep up the good work but on the other hand, how hard can making fake kool aid really be?

tell you the truth...it is kinda hard...

we put about 2000 lbs into a machine that sprays water and air onto the mix (yea thats right, WATER!!!).  what that does is helps the small particles stick together into big ones. if you use too much water, or stop watching it for a while, it will either solidfy into one big 2000 lb chunk of koolaid or will just turn to jelly and ooze out the bottom of the machine.  when you get the chunk, it will either take about 4 hrs to break it up enough to get it to dump out, or 10 hrs to spray water on it enough to dissolve it. 

if you dont spray enough water on it, it will not dissolve right and you have to put it back into the machine for a while, again risking a 2000 block of crap.

so yea, it is a pretty complicated process
