Closing at a movie theater, aka getting out around 2am-ish, then driving half an hour home, trying to sleep, and then having to make another half hour drive to open a self-serve gas station at 4:45am. The gas station job sucked enough by itself, but when combined with little to no sleep, it really sucked.

It was one of these two jobs:
1) Working with injection molding equipment at a factory;
2) Working at a café/delicatessen for a retired mobster with an extremely bad case of OCD.

I can beat everyone on this one. Go to Google Earth, type in 408 Hennepin Ave., Minneapolis, MN.
Check out the roof on that building (it's an old picture, the roof has been redone since then). Directly beneath the roof is the attic, where I've spent years running various light/sound cables and electric lines. That roof started to leak when it rained, so I got to spend most of one summer hauling huge buckets of tar up a very long staircase, and spreading it on the roof, under the blazing sun, just so my cables didn't get fucked up.
The black parts of the roof are what I'm talking about. It was so fuckin hot at times, I had to take breaks standing in a walk-in cooler just to survive. That sucked.

Well, we all know how much washing dishes sucks, so you know that's one job I will never do again (and that was back when min wage was $3.65/hr).
But working as Seafood Prep, cutting up various kinds of fish and related seafood, at a Japanese market while only being paid $6.00/hour, and having a Chinese supervisor who would ridicule me in Chinese in front of the other workers whenever I fucked up, really ranks (and yes, reeks) as THE worst job I've ever had!!!
There's two theories to arguing with a woman. Neither one works.

Toss up between Restaurant Dishwasher and Gas Jockey.
Though close, I think Gas Jockey wins. Not only was I working the late shift (can you say open invitation to armed robbery?), but the owner was a scumbag who consistently cheated his employees out of the minimum wage he was paying us.
How convenient that my shift ending numbers always seemed to be "off" come the end of the week.
Success lies not in being the best, but in doing your best.

I didn't hold this job so I don't know if this counts but a friend of mine, when he was really desperate, got a job as a janitor in a porn shop. One of his tasks was to mop the cum off the the ceiling and floors of the booths. he lasted three days, which is two more than I would have.

Arby's...demeaning, isn't it?
It's not denial. I'm just very selective about the reality I accept.
