    Call centers seem to be a common fast-quit environment! I lasted a week in an outbound call center pre-selling kitchens. The people on the phone were like "I can't afford to heat my house, never mind buy a kitchen!".
    My longest vanilla job was a year. I had a nervous breakdown and was taken into a psych hospital. Since then I've been self employed for three years and loving it. I'll never go back.

    I worked at Dairy Queen for 1 day. I was pregnant and felt sick I just wasn't into it. I felt really bad for quitting!

    I used to volunteer for a woman's shelter and I would go to low income schools and teach about safe sex and sex education when I was an undergrad. Now I didn't quit, but I did get "fired" from the school district. I was in the gym doing an assembly for all the 8th graders. We finshed through the STDS because the school required us to do that first, then we were able to actual teach sex ed. I finished explaining the male genitalia and moved on the female. I said vulva and labia then was quickly escorted out by the vice principal. So 20 minutes.

    Reason: That was a distraction that the boys do not need to know...


    Patriarchy at its best.

    wow @ everyone in here who has worked at a call center! people have always told me I must be an extremely patient person- I've been working at a market research firm for almost 3 years! but it's sucking the life out of me :< I'm too scared to quit and just do camming and my other side incomes full time. BUT if I didn't have to go to that hell-hole a few times a week (it's not even a full time job...) I could focus more on all my other jobbies. sigh

    I think it should only be 20 hours a week.. that is about as long as anyone can stand at a job.

    I've never quit a job, but I did have a temp job working in a warehouse of a very popular and expensive clothing line. I hated it so much. I stood for 8 hours a day pulling tags off and re-tagging children's clothing. Luckily they only needed the help for 2 weeks before they released all of us temps. That was the most gracious I've ever been for being "let go". lol

    I made it at least a few months at a *lot* of shitty jobs, but telemarketing? 2 days post-training. It literally eats your soul.

    I worked a vanilla job for about a year. The fastest I've quit was strip clubs. Try a new club out, work one shift, hate it and dip. Did it with 3 clubs. Maybe 4

    I worked at a museum for about three days of training. I was absolutely desperate for a job & was so grateful when they called me in for training. The whole time I was training I knew that I wouldn't be able to do the job they wanted me to do. It was way too hard for too little money. Then I found out that the amount of hours I would get each week would max out at 20. I felt so bad for quitting, but it wasn't worth the hour of driving each shift.

    I have a fantastic work ethic. i don't just not show up or quit & walk out. So this was a pretty fucking weird sitch.

    My friend's boyf worked at SigAlert.....the traffic thing....in the early morning (4am early). He said an evening position opened up. Got the job. It was a distance to drive from my apt. at the time. First day they're like, "Come in with him at 4am and he will help train you." Then it became "okay, so we'll see you tmrw at 4. Its only for a few days."
    (I took the job saying that i specifically would not do early morn hrs.. AND dude friend didn't train me at all.)

    So there were 2 managers, one male, one female. Okay, so dude manager had an office with post its covering every.single.wall. entirely.
    Lady manager..... I guess she had a miscarriage a few months prior. When she approached me she said "My baby died inside me." WHAT.THE.SHIT?
    not to mention dude manager was one of those who hovers over your shoulder and critiques everything. I know how to fucking type, bro.

    so when the early am continued and then they wanted me to come back at 4pm, I was like, "Thanks, this has not really been working for my schedule. Thanks for a nice week and a half."

    How is anyone even supposed to react to that shit? I'm just imagining her coming up to you totally dead eyed like in a horror movie and saying it.

    After one shift at Shoney's. The boss told me to lose my one inch lobe plugs and close up my holes before I come back on the next shift. I was like it is impossible and why did not she mention about this at the interview. Then I saw all the nasty stuff in the back of kitchen, especially nasty over piled of trash with all old food, next to the grill and the floor was so nasty. My last straw was my trainer. The trainer accused me for stealing and eating the shrimps before serving to the customers.. COME AGAIN? I did not do that, but the boss was on her side.... and get this... the trainer was fired few months back for stealing food and got rehired few days before my arrival. Why would I allow myself return to Shoney's after all this in one shift?

    I worked at a bikini coffee place for 6 hours. The girls were nice but the owner got half of your tips. I'm sorry, but if I'm going to be standing in a poorly insulated coffee shack in pasties in the middle of December and have to arrive at 5am, I sure as hell better be getting all of my freaking tips! I remember it was like 32 degrees that day and having the drivethru window open every couple minutes doesn't really help keep you warm. the two girls training me were super nice and at the end of the 6 hour shift, we had made like $60 in tips a piece (which I was cool with considering it was a really quiet morning). I only got $30 of my tips and when I asked the owner why, she told me that the business gets half of your tips. I quit on the spot.

    When I was 18, I did a four hour shift in the seediest bar with the touchiest-feeliest men. Back then I was a nervous wee thing! Never went back. Bless.
    Nowadays I'd work it and get all the tips.

    1-I survived telemarketing as well! Honestly, it was a six hour shift, I made it through three hours or so. I went on a lunch break and never came back.
    2-I spent many backbreaking years working as a nursing assistant, then an easier but still physically demanding one as a nurse. In retrospect I SHOULD have quit those much faster. The first job I had as an aide was in Geri-psych. That means a mixture of extremely heavy people to lift alone-no hoyer lift, no help-and very physically able, very strong, mentally unstable patients. It did a number on my body and there were more than a handful of times I felt scared for my life. I was there a year and quit as soon as I turned 18, cuz you had to be 18 to work at most nicer places up here.

    I just quit a bartending job after 1 shift of training. It was a lil dive bar in the middle of nowhere, took me an hour to drive there. I thought it would be a good place bc the owner pays $10/hr plus tips if u do "bikini" night and $6/hr for reg bartending, which is more than hourly for bartenders in my area. Then I found out I would have to also cook and prep all the food, work a fryer AND bartend. The place was dirty, all the guys were hillbillies,,and the owner would weigh all the bottles and if he thought u overpoured you would have to owe him $$. Then the girl tells me the owners are always watching the cameras to make sure you're doing what ur supposed to be, and he would send in secret "customers" to make sure you are being "friendly" and making food/drinks right. And the girl I trained with only made like $50 in tips, and the owner told me he wanted me to do other things like dance on the bar and jello wrestling. Why drive an hour and do all that when I can just dance at a club? Lol I must be spoiled

    I just quit the job I got at a gas station after about 2 weeks. I only got 3 checks from there. I actually almost got fired for calling in on my second day (because I was drinking the night before lol. I'm used to being able to work whenever because of camming) It was stupid. I was never scheduled to work more than 3 days a week. 5 hours a day. No should be expected to live off that income.

    I've stuck out most of my vanilla jobs far longer than I should have, but only because I had no idea that this kind of job was up for grabs.

    My shortest and worst was a cosmetic factory, and it took me three days to walk off of. It was well over 100 degrees on the floor, the shift was 12 hours long and there were only 2 five minute (unpaid) breaks and a 15 minute (unpaid) lunch break. And you could just forget about a bathroom break. You were on your feet the entire time sorting/packaging products on a conveyer belt and moving really heavy boxes. They pay sucked at less than $6/hr, and they made it continuously clear that if anyone even said the word union, they would be shit canned. Can't imagine why...

    Had things been more comfortable at home I might have tried to stick it out longer, but at the time I was sleeping on a thin mattress on a concrete floor, which does not agree with a pregnant body that has been hunched over and on its feet for 12+ hours straight. I just couldn't do it.

    I might not make much from the adult industry, but I make enough to snub every job I've ever had.

    I worked for about a week as part of a crew that maintained trails and things at a nature park in my area. I get really bad seasonal allergies, and my dad was very wary of allergy medicine, because I have glaucoma, and there are some things that I'm not supposed to take, and this was way before I discovered that local honey keeps my allergies at bay.

    I worked at A&W for 3 shifts. The manager was a huge asshole to me after he saw I had a tongue piercing. And he didn't even have the balls to confront me about it. He had the owner call me at home about it after my shift!! And to be fair I did try to take it out from day one but it was the flat top ones and I could not get that thing unscrewed to save my life.
    I am bed, bath, and beyond done with managers/bosses/and the sort.

    I work in a retail store with tons of earrings, tongue ring, septum and lip ring had them from day one. I always flipped my septum up. Well one day 3 years after I started my manager said that the general manager said I can only have one facial piercing so either lip ring or tongue has to go. I took my lip ring out for that day but the next day I saw a girl with two lip rings in and asked her if her manager (different areas have different managers) told her she couldn't have them she said no so I put mine back in.
