Bartending...oh boy. I have bartended off and on for the last ten years. Not only do you have to deal with idiots, they're drunk idiots. Although I've met a few attractive ladies standing behind the bar...

I once worked for a flooring company that specialized in custom tile and brick. I was part of the crew that tore up the old floors, so the new floor could be laid down. Try breaking up brick and tile with a pry bar and sledge hammer all day- for $5/hour.

I also tried my hand at being an outside salesman. Now there are some good jobs under that category, however, door to door sales is not one of them. I can't remember how many times in one day I had doors slammed in my face. Talk about humbling.

I guess the silver lining is that you learn something from lousy jobs- even if it's only that you need to bust your butt and move up to something better.
