5 things I hate and love about work.

Many of you know that I work at the local arcade in my area. After these few months I've I have finally decided what I hate and love about the job.

Hate list.
1. Customers who want five cent coins changed...they slow up the change counter.
2. Clean the toilets at the end of the shift.
3. Working in the laser tag maze by myself with the black lights on...it is just a bit freaky.
4. Tokyo wars permenant out of orderness
5. Zone arcade credit system not working on machines.

Love list.
1. Giving away the large redemption prizes
2. Getting free laser tag and arcade games.
3. I get paid seven dollars more an hour then people with similar employeement
4. Knowing how to stop an out of order problem by kicking the machine in the right place.
5. Being considered responsible enough to be trusted with the key.

So what do you you love/hate about work or school?

Re: 5 things I hate and love about work.

Okay, here's my list. I deliver pamphlets on the weekend.

Hate:

- Folding the stupid things
- Being paid...abysmally
- Dogs
- Walking
- The really heavy load I have to carry (pamphlets don't seem like they'd weight much, but when you're lugging around a thousand of 'em, things get tough on the ol' shoulders)

Love:

- Getting paid what meagre amount I do get paid
- Nothing else

Re: 5 things I hate and love about work.

I work in a department store, called Hecht's.

Hate list:
1. Customers who annoy me and act stupid. They see me working in my area with a name tag on and they ask this dumb question all the time, "Excuse me, do you work here?"
2. Customers who don't bring coupons and beggin one from us.
3. Customers who grab stuff and merchandise and lay them everywhere out of place.
4. Snapping back which means making the department 100% all clean and neat.
5. Days that the store manager is working. She is a jerk and everyone hates her.

Love list:
1. Opening Instant Credits. We make customers to open a store charge and when we do, we get cash out of the register as a reward. Highest they give is 5 bucks. ^^
2. Markdowns. I love marking down prices instead of standing beside the cash register.
3. Mystery shops. Got to be careful about that.
4. Getting paid of course.
5. Lunch hours, so I can get away from the crazy people.

Re: 5 things I hate and love about work.

I work at a gas station called Mobil:

Hate:

3)Rude customers who don't believe in lines
4)People who lodge gas caps in the nozzles and blames ME for it
5)*can't think of at moment*

Love:
1)4 hours stocking the cooler. You think that would be hate, but I like spending time in there.

3)I don't do anything for like 1/2 my shift.
4)I do 2 overnights, where I don't have to do anything. I play games and listen to music all night.
5)Weekend days off. Weekend nights at work.

Re: 5 things I hate and love about work.

A theatre called Harkins. =P

Hate:
1 - Customers who treat you like ****. Any question you ask them is a stupid one. They can really ruin your fragile good mood.
2 - Working Door. The job where you tear tickets. It's unbearably boring.
3 - Working past midnight.
4 - Cleaning poppers. They have to be cleaned HOT. Burns like hell. I usually ask someone else to do it or make sure I'm preoccupied before someone asks me to.
5 - Crap for pay, crap for hours. I've only worked two days a week the past few weeks and I only make $5.50 an hour. I need money for travel expenses and personal spending, a $150 paycheck every two weeks won't cover that as well as I'd like it to.

Love:
1 - Customers who are friendly and joke around with you. I enjoy the pleasant ones.
2 - The managers. I swear, they are some of the nicest people I've ever met.
3 - Free movies, soda and popcorn. =P
4 - ...
5 - ...... Err. Yeah. Nothing else.

5.All of my 'friends' that are nice to me but really do hate my guts.


LOVE:
1.Social Studies. The Teacher is also my homeroom teacher and he is so COOL! He is really nice to.

3.Getting an education so then I can get a full time job
4.Always one day closer to Summer.
5.Homeroom where I get to read for an hour :razz:

Re: 5 things I hate and love about work.

Hmm... work.

What I hate about it:
1) My boss, he's can be a drunk jackass sometimes and when he is, he can get pretty pissed off. He'll start yelling and swearing at you if you do something wrong.
2) The lazy people who work there.
3) The crappy customers who would do anything just to get $1 off their purhase.
4) Having to clean everything every Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday
5) When people don't do their jobs, so I have to make up for theirs AND do my part all before closing time.
6) How everyone talks crap about each other behind their backs. My boss is usually the one who initiates it.
7) That damn customer who walks in 3 mins before we close.

What I like:
1) The non-crappy people who know how to have fun.
2) The uber slow days when they let me off early.
3) The pay.
4) Tips!
5) aand that's it.

As you can see, I hate work more than I like it.
