Why do you hate your job?

I don't like my job because my boss is inexperienced and the pay is poopy. What about you guys?

If your boss reads this thread and sees what you've posted, resulting in you being fired, it's not my fault!

My only complaint is the lack of hours. Otherwise my job suits me quite well.

I hated the times when I used worked at McD. Over-worked, under-paid.. but the only thing good about it was that it makes your resume look better when you apply for other jobs and move up.

I loved working at a car rental, slack ass job and got paid above average cuz it was unionized.

Now I found a job that is sorta related to my field of study..and so far im enjoying it..so nothing to hate about it yet...

my previous job, most of my supervisors were all fucking pricks, sometimes you wouldn't be able to get a 15 minute break and you'd get in trouble for the most stupid reasons

Hate some of my co-workers.
My ex works there.
No more pay raises.
Customers are idiots.

Why? Training wage is $20 an hour. Will go to just under $30 an hour once I finish in a few months. I get to work outside, don't have to deal with the public, and if I get all my hours done early, I get the rest of the week off.

The downsides: I have to work outside, it's a 24/7 industry, and I'm on a 2 hour callout, but I can book rest after my shifts.

I work for CN as a conductor.

I hate lunch time. We only have 4 workers, so usually, we just grab lunch together unless most people have brought their own. But here is the problem, nobody knows what they want, person A has no cash, person B doesn't want this, blah blah blah

I've been pushing to just have it every man for themselves during lunch.
