SEA Mag 0 Posted August 4, 2005 Author Share Posted August 4, 2005 Thanks guys for the advice! I'll remember not to trust anyone. It's a supervisory kind of job though I can't see myself managing anyone yet, cos I've never done so in my entire life. Hope it all goes well for me tomorrow yea.. 6596[/snapback] OK - don't keep us in suspense WHAT HAPPENED????????????????????? 7440[/snapback] My Senior engineer was quite busy, so he kept asking me to go for tea breaks and to look around the process line myself. It's the honeymoon period and I'm spending most of my time staring blankly at the machines wondering how they work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kitty-sniper 0 Posted August 4, 2005 Share Posted August 4, 2005 well if you get asked to laminate something, don't lazily hold it around the laminator before hand with one hand, then let it catch the poster diagonaly and you spend 15 seconds panicing at which button it is to turn the blasted thing off, becuase you wern't told. Then let it chew the poster and screw it up, don't do that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom_NUFC 0 Posted August 4, 2005 Share Posted August 4, 2005 I remember my first day of my first job. It was nervous of course, but it wasn't too bad because everyone was new as it was just opening. The early days were quite good, and then it all went shit. Glad I'm out of there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ketsbaia 0 Posted August 4, 2005 Share Posted August 4, 2005 My first day at SJPs was the day of the England - Ukriane game. Get there 15 minutes before i'm meant to start but end up being 15 minutes late because the daft bint who was meant to give me my uniform wasn't in her fucking office. Got changed, went to the Sports Bar and stood about watching the big screens for half an hour. Punters began to come in and it all kicked off. The chef was a cunt of the highest order, I wasn't trained in any part of the job and the customers were a bunch of teenage cockney deliquents on day release who complained about EVERYTHING! We ran out of Burgers at half time so I was sent through the stands to get them from the Black & White Bar. Was told by the chef there to fuck off and made my way back down to our chef who then kicked off at me. Tilled in 88 mince pies because I had no idea how to use the till which meant I had to stay until midnight with my supervisor and his manager looking for a missing £200. They got very, very close to saying "Okay mate, give us the money" before one of them turned around and suggested they check the reciepts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tooj 17 Posted August 5, 2005 Share Posted August 5, 2005 I got caught on all sorts of pranks, the worst was being sent to the stores and ask for a "long weight", it was 30mins before I realised. 6492[/snapback] teacher caught me with that in school the twat, although he used the long stand routine, when i came back everyone was in stitches, and the fact the teacher he sent me too did give me a short stand though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
