This may be the funniest anecdote I've ever read, ever.Pisscubes wrote:SPOILERSPOILER_SHOWI once worked for an alcoholic compulsive gambler as a house painter. I needed some more putty and went to the van one hot July day. I found him in there squatting on a 20 gallon bucket, shitting. He called me a faggot and threw a hammer at me. It was then I realized how much this job sucked.
For my old job at UPS: it was when I was first yelled at by my boss to try to convince a bunch of pissed off hourly workers to work faster, despite the fact that they have absolutely no incentive to...that and I couldn't punish them for working slowly.
For this job, it was my first patient with dementia. Old dude who shouldn't have been out of bed, walking around naked, pissing everywhere, bleed from a pulled-out IV, and just as I run over to grab him, he falls and just wrecks himself. He died a few days later (not from the fall, from a sucky heart).
