Random Quickest That People Have 'Noped' Out Of A Job (18 items)

• (#8) A Job That Pays Less Than Minimum Wage Might Not Be Worth It

  From Redditor /u/TheStressedTech: 

  I went for a 'trial shift' with a door to door sales company, the guy I was partnered up with told me that if he didn't make above the target sales he was coming out with the equivalent of £3 per hour, which in the UK is well below minimum wage. This was commission only 'self employed' role. Noped all the way home that day.
• (#4) If They Make You Talk To The Police Your First Day, You Don't Want That Job

  From Redditor /u/AvocadoVoodoo: 

  Three days after my two week training.

  I was supposed to be a seasonal temp worker for a national propane company. The job distribution and training consisted of taking calls off-hours for people who wanted refills and acting as a messenger service, referring their contact info their local "store" when they opened the next day. Easy-Peasey.

  When I got out onto the floor, I found I was actually expected to be a dispatcher for drivers AND ALSO FIRST POINT OF CONTACT FOR ALL EMERGENCY SITUATIONS. Things I had never been so much as briefed on in training.

  My first shift I had to field a call from a local police officer who was on site to a horrific propane truck crash. I got to wake the guy's district manager... tell him his worker was dead, and the overturned truck was blocking a few lines of the freeway and the police were trying to get a hold of him.

  That was just the start: A customer got the smell of garlic and eggs in the house? I got the call. (What do I do next, Miss Dispatcher? "F*ck if I know. Get out of the house ASAP?") CO detector is going off? I got the call. (Instead of 911 for some reason?!)

  I had ZERO interest in being [an] underpaid, not-trained emergency dispatcher. It's the only job I took off on without giving a 2 week notice. I was nice enough to finish out my shift on the third day, but that was it.
• (#9) If There Are More Cockroaches In The Bakery Than Employees, Leave

  From Redditor /u/Zielko:

  Worked in a bakery, it was my first day so I get there in the morning to meet everyone. Then they have me grease up baking trays for the others to fill... I lift up the first tray and like 10-15 cockroaches just scatter everywhere from under the tray. I tell the guy showing me the work that there were cockroaches and he just shrugged... This was all in the backstore, customers were about 10 feet away.

  So I tell the guy that I'm not feeling too well after about an hour of doing that and I head to the bathroom.

  When I came out I told him I couldn't do that job and he told me to get a real job then, so I left and [got] myself a proper job.
• (#11) You're Looking For A Nanny, Not A Relationship

  From Redditor /u/FreshLeggings: 

  I once found a nannying job on [Craigslist] and spoke with the recently divorced dad on the phone. The 2nd sentence he uttered was, “I’m not looking for a relationship”. Wtf? Yeah you’re looking for a nanny, why would that even need to be said? I told him I’d let him know and never called back. Weirdo.
• (#14) If The Other Employees Are Trying To Warn You, Maybe You Should Listen

  From Redditor /u/arcsine: 

  I was unemployed for a couple months, and started applying for pretty much any job I could do. This one was a basic small-biz IT support contractor. The employee the interviewer introduced to me mouthed "run" when he turned his back.
• (#3) If You Even Hear A Whisper About Vector, Leave Immediately

  From Redditor /u/bowenoutofstyle: 

  Walked in to a “group interview” as a young moron, the second I heard the word “vector marketing” I bounced.
