How can this be happening? Why is it always me? Do you ever ask yourself these questions or do you simply want to vent? Do it all here, we'll try to help.

Share your most humiliating/frustrating/anger moments at work...don't forget to say what field you work in so we can relate ;)



Personally i am a waiter at a small resturante...

My major piss off moment was when me and sheri were serving (we always do wed, fri, and sat nights and sun mornings together) and she had a table of 6 plus some other tables and i had a few tables...and our resturante is set up like this: (w/ the "[" being the outdoors, the "y" being the door, and the "x"s being the inside)

[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[

[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[

[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[y[[[[[[

So anyway i had alot of tables int he area shadded in red and her table that said the comment was int he blue area...and well as i was walking by to one of my tables, the one woman at sheris table commented "...im glad we didn't get the fag as a server..." i was soo pissed when i heard this but of course i still smiled as i walked by and pretended not to hear...



------



another thing that happened, well of course you get cheap bastards...well i had this table of 4 who was really nice and i had a fun time serving and i talked to them and afterward i was busing there table and there was $0.28 on the table!! i was sooo pissed... :wallbash: , who leaves 28 cents???







My rants are over, you may rant now :)

A! Elbereth you dont even look like a guy...they had some serious eye problems...



ok i use to work in a pizza place...well i worked with people i had went to school with. well there was this girl Alicia there that i never got along with. she thought she was better than everyone. well my friend Rico has liked me from day 1. well Alicia thinks EVERY guy should like her and no one else. well Rico was flirting with me and i was playing around with him. well Alicia got mad and sprayed both of us with water until we were drenched completely. i called her a bitch and she got pissed. and i ended up losing my job for insulting her!! how messed up is that. well i ended up getting my job back after Rico explained everything. she was constantly messing up the orders so i would get in trouble for them, knowing that i needed money to pay off my car...well i ended up fighting with her and losing my job once again...but i like to believe i won!! lol

Ick, when I worked as a model all the photographers (Most of mine were guys sadly) would flirt and stare at me constantly it was icky.

.<

Bleh.

The I had to do a photo shoot down at the Salton Sea in Southern California, well the silly photographer had this greeeeeat idea to stop about 30 minutes from the Salton Sea and do my hair and make up... No big deal right?? Wrong. We stopped... Got out, then they informed me the only place with power to do the hair was in a resturant! Ick. So there I was getting all dolled up infront of a buckload of people that were trying to eat their breakfast. Oh the joy for them. Sadly one of my hair pins poped out and landed in an old ladies food.... Ew.

.<

On my first photo shoot I had to wear really high heals that twist tied around my ankles and up around my legs, so uncomfy, plus I had to wear this over sized jacket and undies only.... So I got to walk through Holly wood hills looking like a hooker on drugs cause I could barely walk down and up the hills without falling over haha. Oh the joys of being a model. :rolleyes:

I also burnt the finger of one of my hair designers, yeah she deserved it though, she was too busy talking to the make up artist and she dropped the curling iron on my head so I jumped up really fast and the iron hit her finger muhahaha.

Really embarrasing moment, I had an underwear photo layout at my modeling agency for calvin klien and I was in a white spaghettie strap thin as shit t-shit, and white bikini thin as shit undies, not realizing what day it was I had forgot to get my book bag from my best friend when I left school early that day to go to the shoot.... And then bam. When I went to the bathroom to change out of my clothes for the photo shoot I realized I had gotten my period during the photo shoot haha. Luckily for me, it was just barely starting so it wasn't noticable by anyone around me, or so I hope haha.
