Box Factory

So I've been doing temp work lately until I get hired for summer work (I was actually just hired today to lifeguard at a waterpark lol yay).

I'm happy to say it's my last day working at this corrugated box factory. It's fucking dreadful. Fold, Fold, stack, fold, fold, stack, etc. It's quite loud, and people yell at you over the machines about simple shit you were already told and knew by the last fucking 10 people. "MAKE SURE YOU STACK WITH THE CREASES UP!!!". "OKAY THANKS". "MAKE SURE THEY'RE FACING AAAAAHHHHPPPP". "THEY'LL GET STUCK IF THEY'RE NOT FACING APPPPP". "YEAH, I FUCKING GET IT". "CAUSE IF THEY GET STUCK HE'LL HAVE TO PULL THEM APART".


Jesus Christ. My conversation with one damn person.

It's stressful, and repetitive. It's union work, so I only get one 10 minute break, and another 20 min break for lunch. It's payed for, so we can't leave the premises.

My previous assignment was at Winmar. They're contractors for property restoration management. I actually loved that.. It was pretty relaxed, and most of the time it was only cleaning burnt shit. we had two 15 min breaks, and a half an hour lunch. We were payed for all of it too (even over-payed a little :D).

-but yeah.. Fuck manual labor & Factory Work.

Fuck cardboard boxes.

I think I'll stick to College/Uni :)

I've worked in a factory aswell. It's extremely shit. The higher ups have got it good, though.

Ahahaha, im on my 20 min break right now.. Whooptydoo.

Lol tant I've done a lot more strenuous things in my life than fold and stack boxes. The environment is just absolute shit lol. I've been building character since I was born m8.

Lot of rough characters here too. Think I'm gonna get it in the rear at some point.

Yeeee, my whole hands and arms are covered in badass right now. Been working with another temp from Burmham for the past three days. I'm done today though woohoooo.

On another note, I've been hired to lifeguard at a waterpark for the summer lol.

You guys can wake up at 1am and talk to me when I get home eheheheheh.
