Employment is one
of the more difficult Topics to Bitch about simply because it’s a very
sensitive subject, however like all unwanted chores, it has to be done. Jobs
have a notoriety to be difficult to find when you’re out of work as experience
and past employment comes into factor with most companies these days and
frankly, who can blame them? They don’t want to train someone from scratch,
that’s time consuming and pointless when someone else with certain experience
in the field is applying for the job. Still, the fact remains that there are
people with no experience because nearly every company has this mindset, so how
can they gain experience if no one will employ them without experience? What a
mindfuck.

However there are some jobs that are so easy and horribly annoying
that people are forced to take them up due to money issues and you know, the
necessity of living. Therefore I give you the 4 jobs that annoy the public to
such an extent, that anger is bound to ensue. Remember though, if you do come
across any person that has been unfortunate enough to be put into any of these
4 positions, spare some sympathy for that poor soul. Then show your frustration,
‘cause you’re only human…
1. Bathroom
attendant
Men everywhere
have felt the rage build up inside them when one of these are skulking around
the sinks and drying towels. He feeds off the naivety of the male’s need for
sex, and uses the power of crude persuasion to tempt you into buying a few
sprays of fragrance. Now I haven’t been in ladies bathroom of late because I
myself am of the male gender, and not a creepy guy who likes to watch women sit
on the toilet. Seriously, how are these type of men allowed to walk among us?
Therefore I’m clueless if the ladies can share such annoyance, but if not, just
feel our pain for the moment.

We’re about to
wash our hands after a rather relieving session with the toilet and there he
is, forcing eye contact as if he wants to take you out for dinner. It’s a
charming notion, but disturbing nonetheless. Cleanliness is the first thing on
the menu when washing hands, so we look for the soap. But there is none.
Strange, a club of this caliber, and there’s no soap? What is this nonsense!?
But then of course it comes to revelation that he has it. Guarding it as if we
would be inclined to take more than we need, like a greedy soap gremlin. Either
way, we need the soap, but he won’t just give us it. Oh no, that would be too
simple. He juveniles us and squirts it in our hands. We are not fucking five!
We do not need help! Why didn’t you just come in the cubicle and wipe our arses
for us? Pull up our pants if you want, we must not be capable to do them simple
tasks too if we can’t even wash our own bloody hands! Then he tempts us to buy some fragrance after helping us to dry our hands with cheap paper towels. Typing
in these inclusive pronouns is starting to make me feel like Gollum.
Using a clever
concoction of sexual psychology and clever wordplay he tries to batter us down
to accept the charge of using the bathroom. Shouting things across the bathroom
such as “No splash, No gash!” and the infamous, “No Armani, No punani!” The
single men in the room jump at the chance of not smelling like sweat, in the
chance that there’s girl in the club might get off on the smell of “Joop!” If
you rely on how you smell to attract the opposite sex, you must have the
personality of a shoe. Avoid the attendant, at all costs.

2. Telephone
operator
Everyone is
trying to sell you something these days. It seems that anything goes when
making money is involved and stealing is top of the list. I’m not talking about
daylight physical robbery. I’m talking about stealing your personal details,
such as phone numbers. I’m nineteen and I’ve had hundreds of calls urging me to
claim miss-sold PPI to a point where I’m actually convinced I’m owed money.
Asking me this is like asking a blind person for directions, the answer is
always going to be, “Fuck off”.

I personally like to have full-blown
conversations with them completely off topic to waste their time, and let’s
face it; I have a lot of Topics to talk about. How they obtain the phone number
in the first place is a mystery. They probably scan Facebook for idiots who
have left their accounts connected to their mobiles. In the case of these
people, I have no sympathy for your ever-ringing phone.

3. “Professional”
Tumblr Bloggers
Blogging is a way
to express opinions and start discussions with other people who have the same
interests. Some people are lucky enough to be employed by posting their blogs
on legit websites and get paid for it. These people are called Journalists.
There’s a fact for you. Now we have that out of the way, I can wade you into
shit swamp that is Tumblr and the types of people that you can find on there.
If you use Tumblr as a hobby, that’s perfect, it’s what it’s meant for. Go you!
However, there are people that take it way too seriously and look at it as a
career rather than a past time. Poor deluded souls.
Posting art and thoughts
on Tumblr is NOT A CAREER. If you can make a bit of money in the process with
advertisement and selling the odd t-shirt, you’ve done extremely well. To take
it further, get employed by an actual company and share your portfolio with
them, then you can call it career. I’ve seen people list it as a profession on
Facebook and Twitter and list it on their CV’s. I don’t think employers will
give a horse’s left testicle about how many notes one post got. Unless they’re
wearing the t-shirt you sold, then brag away.
