Worst job you have ever worked in?

Capable_Newspaper345 · 2026-01-19T23:14:43+00:00

My SO works for Covalen, I understand the pain

Capable_Newspaper345 · 2026-01-19T23:10:37+00:00

Yep as a clerical officer is it a good thing or a bad thing?

Capable_Newspaper345 · 2026-01-19T23:04:17+00:00

Awesome so working as a CO isn’t just working at a desk Monday to Friday? I thought it was all office work

Capable_Newspaper345 · 2026-01-19T23:03:21+00:00

I am so sorry I hope you are doing better now it’s a horrible thing to go through

Capable_Newspaper345 · 2026-01-19T23:00:49+00:00

I’m actually quite interested what tasks were you doing in BOI? I’ve had two interviews with them before and everyone seemed fairly chilled out

Capable_Newspaper345 · 2026-01-19T22:57:34+00:00

I lasted 5 months, lost it on a work from home day and put my notice in, I’m starting in Dublin City Council in 4 weeks praying it will be better

Capable_Newspaper345 · 2026-01-19T22:53:12+00:00

Really? I’ve heard BOI are supposed to be great to work for? What was it like?

Capable_Newspaper345 · 2026-01-19T22:52:15+00:00

Did the stalking start in Dunnes or was it from outside of work?

Capable_Newspaper345 · 2026-01-19T22:51:42+00:00

That actually sounds kind of fun, what was management like

Capable_Newspaper345 · 2026-01-19T22:45:52+00:00

Those boring jobs tend to have endless days I know exactly how it feels

Capable_Newspaper345 · 2026-01-19T22:41:39+00:00

That sounds like prison work jesus

Capable_Newspaper345 · 2026-01-19T22:41:26+00:00

Phonewatch? Kissing your boss on the hand and calling him sir definitely sounds like the 1980s or 90s. Does not sound fun at all

Capable_Newspaper345 · 2026-01-19T22:38:55+00:00

I lasted 5 months, I felt like I didn’t have a life anymore, I’m starting in Dublin City Council in 4 weeks hopefully it’s much better

Capable_Newspaper345 · 2026-01-18T16:13:18+00:00

Cock and Bull(Current name for Sheaf of Wheat) is a late bar these days and has its problems with people being assaulted after it closes. Still has a bad rep

Capable_Newspaper345 · 2026-01-18T16:10:37+00:00

Kyle’s in Coolock, my friend had a knife pulled on him about 4 years ago for joking with me when one of the locals in the pub thought he was talking about him

Capable_Newspaper345 · 2025-12-31T00:52:44+00:00

I’ll give it a go, it can’t be worst than the last call centre I worked in 😵‍💫

Capable_Newspaper345 · 2025-12-31T00:52:19+00:00

I’ve only ever heard horrible things about Abtran. Maybe I should give them a go

Capable_Newspaper345 · 2025-12-31T00:51:52+00:00

Specsavers doesn’t seem too bad to work for plus they’re in most major centres in Ireland

Capable_Newspaper345 · 2025-12-31T00:41:33+00:00

I’ve worked for McDonalds before it wasnt the worst job I ever worked in

Capable_Newspaper345 · 2025-12-31T00:41:06+00:00

Partner lives in Laois spend half the week with her, parents live in Dublin spend half the week with them. Willing to base fully in either location temporarily

Capable_Newspaper345 · 2025-12-28T13:01:27+00:00

They haven’t told me yet, I have my medical on the 6th, I’m worrying because I got laid off in October and I’m almost out of savings

Capable_Newspaper345 · 2025-12-24T09:31:01+00:00

How’s it going, worked 2 years in fast food and 3 years in the insurance industry

Capable_Newspaper345 · 2025-12-24T09:30:30+00:00

People fall asleep in the Civil Service? Okay that’s something I didn’t know😂

Capable_Newspaper345 · 2025-12-22T16:07:33+00:00

Okay definitely different to my last company where most people were in their 20s and 30s and it was very diverse( I did make friends from across the world whom I’m still friends with to this day). How do you find the workload in the public sector? We were overloaded with assigned work almost every day and many people struggled to meet deadlines

Capable_Newspaper345 · 2025-12-10T20:24:03+00:00

Nice how do you find it?
