Stupid Jobs

Ever wonder while your out and about how on earth someone got that job?  I do.  My choices were quite limited as I remember back in high school.   Not once  do I remember on the form would you like to be a paper shredder?  Yes that’s my top choice in life.   Well that’s great since That’s what I’m going to do for the next 2 weeks.  Shred paper.  that’s it.  5 hours a day for 8 days.   Oh Joy.  I’m actually 10 hours of completetion.  Today our district manager came for a visit.  I don’t know who he is.  However he’s standing at the counter and I ask if  I can help him, he asks if the store manager is in today?  I respond.  I’ve got no idea.  I’ll ask.  Well for a front counter person this is something you should know.  I’m not a front counter person,  I’m a work place accident :)   As he notices my boot he nervously smiles and goes on with this business.  HEHE.  I’m the kind of person who if you ask me a question I will answer you.  You may not like the answer but It will be honest.  I’m not a counter person in Human Resources,   actually my new title is shredder.  I sit at a desk all day shredding old employee files.  My shredder takes 11 pages at a time with no staples or paper clips.  (sigh)   It burns up, overheats …. oh about every 15 minutes.  We are very high tech here.  It’s been fun reading some of these old files.  We hired some real winners in the past.  Between drunkeness, absenteeism, racism and theft it’s amazing we get any work done here.   My first day I did workmans comp files.  Do you think they were sending me a message?? 

What kind of stupid jobs have you done?
