I have worked 2 restaurants 

Dennys (pre-covid), i worked there for a year, i was a busboy/janitor/dishwasher, it was laidback since i worked during graveyard shift, only annoying thin was that there was a scandal of my unit manager, basically took parts of our paychecks to fund for her gf flight to here (she got fired), and there has been drunks that come in and harass me because i wont seat them due to our policy about not seating intoxicated people

McDonald’s, easily the worst job i had, dont know why I worked there for almost a year


Now NAPA auto part store, Im a stock associate there for 2 years, and honestly that is the best job i have, i got verity of things i can do as a job, i did have rough start because i never had retail experience, but overtime i love it. I got pay raises and benefits such as paid vacation, health insurance etc. I rarely interact with customers and i mostly handle products that come into a werehouse ass a freight

A small town doughnut/sub/hotdog shop that also had random gift items along with renting golf carts. I was basically left alone a majority of times to manage the store. Only made about $9.50 plus tips and tips were $10 on a good weekend (Yeah only opened on weekends for like 6 hours a day lmao. They closed down though due to rent increasing. Taught me not to work for small businesses that dont know how to run a business. And before they shit down, they hired a new employee to help get some of the work off my back. They hire a 70 year old lady who couldnt bend over or really do much of the heavy work. Oh and we didnt even know they closed, just woke up one day to "Hey guys sorry :(" text. Thankfully i had a second job layed out and only used the doughnut shop one for bus fare.

I worked in a prison for 3 months.

I should've seen the warning signs - high turnover, everyone depressed, everyone stressed - but I thought it would be fine. I was hired to be a filing lady for their audit department. Training was really fun, they put me in the same training as the correctional officers so i got paid to learn how to defend myself and learn about gas and pepper guns. It was a lot of fun.

While I was in training, they promoted me to an assistant manager position with their HR. I was excited, it seemed like they needed help hiring and I love helping out. Very quickly after that, i figured out why the last girl had left. I was told to do one thing and then in trouble for doing it because I did it wrong. They couldn't find anyone to train me so i was just doing what I thought made sense. My office was filled to the brim with paperwork that wasn't filed and was about 4 years out of date. It was so bad that i couldn't get to my desk at first because there was so much filing to do. But I would get in trouble for spending time cleaning and filing because I wasn't hiring or interviewing.

The breaking point was when i spent my saturday volunteering for an event. The head of the prison decided it would be cool to hug me without my permission to "make my boyfriend jealous" he had already been the type to touch my arms or shoulder without permission and I had told him to not do that but this hug was so long and I was so uncomfy. I did the rest of the event, packed up, went in to work on monday to say bye to my friends and file some papers. Quit that night.

In a much better spot now. But always look around at a new job and if everything seems scary and awful, there might be a reason for that.
