Least favourite aspect of your work?
Jump to: Newest in thread
I'm just cleaning out the gunk in a shower trap (that's the bit beyond the plug hole). It's just about the worst aspect of my job. The best bit is the satisfaction of fixing things.
So, what's your least favourite? Hopefully many of us will have the weekend off these. Hats off to those of you who don't though.

Well clocking in would be the main one lol.
Other than that, there are certain machines that I have to work on that are wosre than others. They use neat oil as a cutting lubricant so it's not very pleasent. |

my job is quite varied, sometimes i'm office bound, sometimes I'm in the workshop, sometimes I'm out on site, sometimes I'm repping, so all in all not a lot of scope to get bored.
But the worst is repping or cold calling. Having the phone slammed down, and coming across receptionists that are like guard dogs gets me down sometimes. But there are lovely receptionists too, and when I get an order or a good enquiry, it makes the day seem good.
There are loads of jobs around the house that I don't like doing. Painting and decorating is my pet hate though.  |

The buzz of an order is great but yes those receptionists can be so rude. Keep digging for gold though.
I don't like decorating at home either-busman's holiday for me...
To the other posters, I hope you experience the best bits of your particular job very soon.
Here's to a job well done - cheers |

I love my job. Had shit jobs up until this one. I get to travel all over the north and tinker with electrickery. The only downside is sorting out the balls ups that the 'office orniments' make , and they get paid more. Best being at the pointy end of the crew tho.  |

North of The Wall - youll need your vest |
For me its the endless security queues at airports.
I fully understand the need for the checks and happy to go along with them but drives me mad that they all seem to have their own rules...
laptops in/laptops out
shoes on/shoes off
100ml liquid/no liquid
belt off/belt on.
Oh and cockroaches in my room  |

"Clients!! "
You took the words right out of my mouth! (as Meat Loaf once said) The ones that make eternal changes to my designs without justifying why they are doing it are the worst! |

Or the ones that ask you for your professional advice and opinions and then do the exact opposite....... |

You wouldn't mind if they didn't ask at all. But asking and not acting on it is like saying they don't believe you. Grrrr. |

Dont mind the work, but hate the fact that my boss and his son (the general manager) dont take ownership of problems, and i usually end up dealing with the shitstorm that ensues.
