You often hear ‘there’s nothing like the worst job’. Take a minute and think about it, you are likely to learn more about what you want for your future from a job you consider terrible than you’ll do from a job you find tolerable. Here’s Alex's worst job experience.
Alex: “Back in university (before I had established what I’ll do and won’t do for money), I got a job promoting a product, this wasn’t an ordinary brand awareness job. I had to dress up like a clown and try to get people’s attention on the streets in town. I’m certain you’ve seen one of those.
I liked it at first, the costumes were excellent and all that was required was to be witty and make a fool of myself hiding behind a mask- easiest money to make!
The fun was over as soon as I started; dancing in the scorching sun and pedestrians tackling my shoulders endlessly was enough torture. To make it worse, I once got arrested by City Council Askaris and my supervisor took off with my pay that could have bailed me out. That was the last I ever saw or heard of him.”
