Back in my High School days I went to work at McDonalds . Hated it . I think I lasted a couple of months .
This was in the mid '70s. Mostly cardboard from Walmart, grocery stores and the like. 99.5% clean. We had to sort by flattened size and stack. A forklift/high loader moved it over the baler, and retrieved it, then loaded on the trailer.I was just thinking of flat rats and snakes and stuff.......but yeah, one bale would kill me!
Don’t ask me why, but my mind goes to Mr. Howell trying to flag down ships in Gilligans Island. He does know any naval signals so he flags the signal of a cocktail hour at a country club.3 hrs directing traffic at a ski resort.
11 months at U.S. Steel, Gary Works Coke Ovens between high school and college. Very high paying nasty, unhealthy job. Eye opener for a 19 year old. Made enough to pay about 80% of college. Current position: 45 years!

8-9 months as a BMW porter. Was just a second job until I cemented into my actual career.
I was going to ask if it was you, but I think it was before your time here: Years ago someone here mentioned that when they worked at JL, it was the policy of their particular location that if a car came in with one of their filters on it already, they were instructed to just clean it off with Windex and call it good. You know, in case the customer crawls under and looks at it afterward.Two weeks at Jiffy Lube. Left because they weren’t doing ethical things.
