I'm a home shopping picker at a supermarket. So I'm the one that deliberately substitutes your items. No carrots? You can have parsnips, they're almost carrots, they're white.
I hate it.

I work at McDonald's! with all the cool kids . . . . im on 16 so its not to bad and it fits around my school and other activities so i cant really complain.
Student studying audio engineering and I do subcontracting as a Foh operator for a church (quite a big one form what I under stand )
I work for the Internet! More specifically, Blurtit pay me 2 pence per word to upgrade badly answered questions.
For those who don't know, Blurtit works like Yahoo answers, in that users submit questions and others answer them. Google changed their algorithms to search for quality as well as quantity (Cthulu knows how you program for taste) so all the long but crappy answers have to be improved to keep the sites hit count up.
The long and short of it is I now make a living off browsing for random knowledge on the intertubes!

I'm a customer assisstent at local Tescos Metro (a mini supermarket if your from the states) I stack sheleve when needs be but my actual job entails serving customers at the checkout. When I start work at 6am, an hour before we open, it's also my job to take delivery of newspapers and magazines and put then out aswell
Accountant by trade, now financial controller for large Aussie company. So I guess I mostly just tell people what to do. Hours are shit, but I get paid lots of money.
I've been a sales/customer service representative for a call center for the last 7 years. I've worked for Checkfree, Qwest, Centurylink and Geeksquad within that role.
I've had the opportunity for advancement with a few months as a quality coach as well as several training classes performed, but my priority is to maintain a part time schedule and so I remain an entry level sales rep. The job isn't amazing, but it is good enough to keep me going back and I'm likely to remain until life forces me to find something new.

I work part time at the local carehome while I study a long distance degree in psychology and literature.
The job isn't great. Well, technically I have three jobs, all from the same company: Housekeeper, Kitchen Assistant and Hostess. Anyway, the pay is crap, the environment is crap, I'm always rushed off my feet, dealing with residents with dementia can be very challenging and cleaning up old people poop is never fun when housekeeping. It can be quite fulfilling to help the elderly though, even if I don't like my employer in the least bit.

Work the early evening shift in an office, or 10th circle of hell as I prefer to call it 
. Damn you pointless bureaucracy!
Though the pay is decent and most of my co-workers are easy to get along with, the work hours play havoc with my sleeping pattern and the main boss in my team seems to take great pleasures in sucking with little joy there is in the job out.

You must have the thickest skin around to be going for that type of job jesus. Don't go near the premier league lest you want people burning effigy's of you hahailspooner said:I'm just a trainee soccer referee. I don't get paid much, but I guess I'm only in high school, so all is good.
