This new job sucks

[optimisticzoomer]

It's "security", but I'm basically a mail room worker. I finish my first training shift today in 15 mins

It's so repetitive. Just scanning parcels and shit. Also some heavyish lifting. Making my dodgy wrists act up

My other (current) job is on the visitor side, and zero hours. This one would be full time

Surprisingly I actually think the repetitiveness of searching visitors might be better than scanning and looking for parcels. At least it's kinda interesting looking at the people sometimes. And we change positions every hour or 30 mins. And there's more of us. I keep to myself mostly but sometimes have laughs. In this mail room one, it's just a handful of people. Doing the same shit. Scanning parcels, and then scanning them out when people come to collect them

I have a second training shift tomorrow. I think they basically assume I'm gonna start full time, but I don't wanna tbh. I would rather they just give me more shifts or a contract where I currently am, but they're not

Realistically, both jobs are kinda ass. But then again, most jobs are. But yeah, I think this might be worse. The positive is that it's more laidback. U can sit and be on your phone

The problem is, it's my only full time job offer. And my parents would not be happy if I turned it down. Unless of course I say I'm looking for other stuff

We don't know what's in the parcel. Just scan it and put it in areas by department etc

Most jobs seem terrible anyway, you just hope to get decent coworkers to make the absurdity of wage slavery bearable. Still wild that I'm not getting hired, even when I top the cognitive tests they hand out. Apparently not flipping burgers at 17 means I'm unqualified to do anything now, including jobs actually related to my skills. Not even the "shit" jobs want me. Oh well, guess it's another summer of chilling, not the worst outcome.

Do you still play fortnite?

That's the thing. One shift here and, although the people seem decent enough, and it's more relaxed, it's also more boring than my current role. At least there there would be some occasional funny moments/conversations, whereas I don't really see that happening here

I quit gaming due to back pain and monkmaxxing purposes
