For some people, it is inevitable: work sucks. Take a moment to rest easy though, friends. Misery loves company, and there are plenty of other people out there with horrid jobs. Street Talk takes you where you never wanted to go in the first place: on a journey through our collective employment record.

Cashier, Monterey What was the worst job you ever had? Hmm, probably scrubbing toilets at a motel.
What could possibly be so bad about that? I don''t know--I think it''s pretty self-explanatory.
Are you looking forward to a great job? Well, I''m going to school now to be a nurse.
Genie Stanford
Retired, Seaside How many jobs have you had? I''ve worked about 40 of them.
What was the worst one you had? I can''t really think of any that were really that bad. The pay was always bad--but not the job.
What was the best job you had? Being a mom.
Patrick Graham
Student, Salinas Ever have a job that sucked? Paper route. It wasn''t fun.
Why was it so bad? I had to get up at 7am on Sundays, the pay wasn''t worth it, and I didn''t even like the paper.
What would you like to be doing? I play tuba and I really want to be playing in an orchestra some day.
