The second job was more fkd up.
It was an Italian restaurant, and one of the senior managers sexually harassed one of the girls who worked in cafe with me. She got fired, but on her last day she told me that one of the senior managers was sexually harassing her. I then called my boss and told him to come in immediately and sort it out. When he arrived, he talked to the senior manager who was in question before he talked to me, and the senior manager then said it was actually me who was sexually harassing the girls, and the boss believed him over me. I felt sick, and quit that day.
Eventually me and the girl who was sexually harassed, plus a couple of other employees who were treated poorly by the boss/senior manager took the entire restaurant to court, and got the place shut down etc. But yeah, totally fkd up.

Well, I have two jobs which both ended terribly.
First was at Lone Star, an American themed restaurant. I was 18, and one of the girls I worked with was 16. She was kinda weird but she and I had no issues with each other. Anyway, one day I was drying cutlery, which included steak knives, at the waiter station, and she was walking towards me talking to me, and I had a massive bunch of them in my hands in my tea towel, and then I turned to her to talk to her, and one of the knives accidentally poked her in the stomach. She over reacted and yelled at me for not being careful while holding sharp knives, I apologised and asked if she was hurt. She lifted her shirt to show her stomach, and there was no mark whatsoever, so I was like algood and continued on with my job. She finished that night and went home, and I was on close. Then when I had only one table left before finishing up, a couple came in. I got up and told them that we were no longer seating tables, and they said that's fine, they just wanted to talk to the manager. I said he will be with you shortly. Before the manager got to the couple, 7 policemen arrived, and I realised that this couple were the 16 year old coworker's parents. The policemen then came over to waiter station, yelled "who's will?" and I was like "uhh, me..". They then detained me, read me my rights and when I asked what was going on, they replied "We have been called in here on a serious assault charge on a 16 year old girl with a machete". I was completely shocked and was freaking out. Luckily, another one of my coworkers was with me when the knife poking into tummy incident occurred, so I gave the police her number in order for her to clear me. But when they called her, she thought she was being prank called so hung up. Anyways, it was mares. Eventually they went to assess the "wound", realised there was nothing, and then let me go. My boss then told me that I was to apologise to the 16 year old co worker. I quit a couple weeks later.

Not a job if you do it for free.
thanks for helping me clarify. can i meet you by the math center for help with my essay?
I was a busser at Olive Garden before I was a server. I never knew how disgusting people are. I had to clean up used band-aids, puke, and worse things I don't want to talk about. I had to do the servers' jobs for them because they sucked. I had to do the hosts' jobs for them because they sucked. I did get the soup/salad/breadsticks unlimited thing for $1 though. That was cool.
My only job has been at a Kmart and it was horrible. My managers forced us (my coworkers and myself) to clean up a massive chemical spill of corrosive chemicals with only a pair of latex gloves. We did not have the proper training nor the proper safety equipment. We had the option to sue but a bunch of lawyers decided it would just be best to report them to OSHA and the EPA. We did. Nothing came out of it. Once reported, a hazmat team had to come and clean it. If they were required to call a hazmat team, imagine what could have happened to us. After that, I was treated terribly by my managers and threatened multiple times that I'd lose my job. It was absolutely terrible. It's about to go out of business, though, and I am glad because every person who works there is a piece of crap.
