I worked on building a theme park in Dusseldorf, we lived off site so you'd get up at 4am eat the hugest breakfast ever then get on the bus, and then finish at 6pm. 7 days a week. I shared a room with some crazed Scots welders, until one ended up in hospital and the other sent back for putting his mate in hospital by kicking him repeatedly in the head (as the Scots express friendship), so I ended up with a room to myself. Which in those conditions, was a fucking blessing. |

* Is was in a medicine experiment. This chick put electrified my leg, and i had to say a number between 1 and 10, how painful it was. Earned about 50 dollars for that. It wasnt painful at all, mostly, so it was pretty easy money. * I was a trafic counter. Basically, that is getting paid for trainspotting. I would stand on a street corner, and count cars, bicycles, pedestrians and wich direction they where heading. People walking by, thought you were insane. Insaly boring. Paid OK. I would spend most of the time singing to myself. One time i had to count cars in a cellar next to a supermarket. There was no way to hide, or look natural. You would just stand there for 5 hours, and count cars. Naturally, most people gave me a quick look, and then went off, thinking "don't make eye contact with the crazy person". One lady, who was giving out parking tickets, thought i was spying on her, evaluating her work. I still do this gig occasionally. * I once did a thing, where i had to buy a lot of coca cola products, at very specific locations, and then ship them to Belgium, to a lab. Like, you would get a list with loads of shit. "Get 1/2 liter of coca cola zero from that 7 eleven on that adress". It was really crummy, and disorganised. I thought working for "the man" would at least be structured, but surprisingly it wasnt. |

* I once did a thing, where i had to buy a lot of coca cola products, at very specific locations, and then ship them to Belgium, to a lab thats interesting ....was that a health saftey thing checking out the quality of a product? i ve always wondered if anyone anywhere was checking up on any of these products that are actually on the shelf ready for purchase. there are a few home made sandwhiches at our local shops that seem to have doggy doos in them..i dont buy anything from them now. :T |

I'm not actually quite sure what they did to those bottles. I got instructions, that it was very important, that they should be kept at a right temperature, not be shaken, sent in bubble wrap and so on. I think it was some sort of combined quality, consistency thing. I was also instructed to remain strictly anonymous to the shop staff! It was all very odd. |

maybe pepsi doing quality control on the bottles. oooo maybe they wernt coca cola ..maybe someone was smuggling diamonds or explosives ? maybe the people in the shop were in on it too? |

I guess a true conspiracy is when you're a part of it, without even knowing! |

mimi!!! I work at relay too! Nigerians buying up "gold chain" and "soccer watches" abound! I worked California relay at first, doing legit tty calls, but then moved to ip, reciting B.I.G. lyrics to strangers, scam calls, etc. Amazing! |

|

did you have to say "go ahead" when you're finished with a sentence? how often were they actual legit calls? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I captioned telephone calls for a year. 8 hours a day of speaking with a quick monotone voice to a computer. Got to read a lot between calls, so that was good. |

I sold knives and airguns at militaria.pl. I worked as a hydraulic saw operator in my father's workshop. I've got pretty decent samples form there. |

i don't really remember; this was like 3 or 4 years ago...it felt like mostly non-legit calls. I probably worked at the same place as -v-.....it was good when it was slow and you could read between calls but like 4 months into working there everybody in the world somehow found out about relay so it was just hours upon hours of endless prank calls to nursing homes and shit like that...i had to quit soon after, it was too much for me to do without a few minutes in between calls. there was even an mp3 of ME reading someone's stupid prank floating around the internet that one of my coworkers found, i dont think i still have it.. |

i almost became a knife salesman once - in fact, i think there's a thread here about it. i took three days of training, all dressed up and proper, and then i learn i need a 200 dollar deposit before i can even work. screw that, i says. i also did construction work on a haunted house once - not a real one, mind you. i was supposed to be a designer, and i did chalk outlines for art on the wall, but most of what i ended up doing was painting the walls black. being in a big warehouse, painted black in the dead heat of summer is no fun at all. |

Ahh Cutco, I too ended up at one of their "interviews" in one of my darker hours. I don't remember if they cut through the cans there or if it was only by video. They said if we came back the next day for training, we could have soda pop and chips. I later found out we had to bring it ourselves. :0( Craziest job? Working at a chicken nugget factory. It doesn't sound like much, but man.. |

although on a somewhat related note, so guy who was absolutely plastered decided to drive through the front window of the 7-11 a block from my house. my neighbor said he was about 5 feet from the car when it smashed through the front of the store, and the guy just kept driving, trying to back out as if he could somehow get away with it. i posted a pic if you wanna see (its the last item on the list since its not really from stumbleupon) |
