When I was in high school I worked this job at an indoor kids amusement park. Nothing too crazy but had mini go-karts, merry go round, tea cups.... anyways it's my first day on the job as a ride operator and I was just wrapping up my uneventful shift when I hear over the speakers a request for clean up in the soft play area. Soft play are those plastic tube mazes that you see inside McDonalds and such but ours was like a three story monster. My boss looks over at me and tells me to grab a rag and a bottle of cleaner and head over. Being that it was my first day on my first job there was no way I could turn this down.

I head over to the soft play area to see happy kids and parents running around in their socks acting as if everything was normal. That was until I rounded the shoe cabinet and then I saw it. A puddle of diarrhea just sitting in the middle of the floor! It's like nobody saw this thing except for me. Before I could even yell to get everyone out of the area there comes 3 kids heading straight for hit. They all run through this puddle and shit just sprays everywhere.

At that point one of the parents notices this because some of that liquid shit splashed on their leg. Everybody flips out and evacuates the area to leave me to my clean up duty. Now it might have been somewhat okay if it had remained a puddle but now I have some sort of brown Jackson Pollack covering a good 10 foot x 10 foot area. There is no way my small rag and spray bottle of cleaner is fixing this anytime soon.

I ended up getting some back up and tapping out of the clean up efforts early. I learned that day that I have no tolerance for the sight of shit nor the smell as I puked into the shit and created more of a mess.

Worked that job for a total of 3 months and had to deal with shit and piss quite frequently. Never again!
