I moved out of my parents house when I was 18 and got an apartment downtown. I got a job at a local burger joint and worked the 3rd shift flipping burgers and stuff. This job was real entertaining, as at 3AM all the bars downtown would close and the only place left open was this restaurant which would be flooded with people and it'd be really, really loud in there. The job itself had a ton of awesome perks and the people working there were real, real cool (maybe too cool) but i'd always see fights that carried over from the bars to there. There is now a somewhat famous (locally, atleast) YouTube video of a great fight that broke out in that restaurant while I was working, with me in the background.

That particular night the place got cleared out as some stuff inside got broken, but even after the employees all went out front to ease the situation there was still a ton of orders to be made so I ignored the excitement to do my job .

YouTube - ‪Hinkle's brawl‬‏ Purple shirt, long hair. Walking to the phone to call 911 (As became standard almost every other weekend) but got beat to the punch. Notice my fellow grillmate jumping over the counter and me walking back to my post.

Not the best fight i've seen there, but the first/only that's made YouTube.

Here's mine:
I was working at my previous company and they worked us until very late hours. The project we were on had about 20 or so people, many of them 35 and under so it was a very cool, laid back bunch. The project itself was badly run, and the client was breathing down or managers' backs. The managers did not make it any better because they kept throwing money at a problem hoping it could be solved. That meant long hours and short deadlines for everyone that was actually doing the work- myself and some of the development team.

They started buying everyone who stayed after 6pm dinner. And it kept happening. We all just wanted to go home but knew had work to do. At one point, we all got really pissed off that the company preferred us to stay at work rather than go home and recharge for the next day. So we got very expensive dinners- something like $400 just on dinner alone ordering take-out from the Cheesecake factory. There were about 15 or us. We never forget that because we were all really sick of working for a company and project that was working us to death.

Thank you guys for sharing your experience. Here is mine.

You already know i love to write articles. I got a client through 3to30 stating he needs 10 articles in two days.(5 Per Day). It was really really excited to work with those stuffs. I was sitting with Google for two whole days and finally completed 10 articles(with little tiredness). I said this here because i wrote many articles before but i felt this experience is unique and more memorable. I learnt a lot and moreover enjoyed it a lot

Mine was pretty average, I did it with a my aunt (a fund manager). She then delegated the job to the dealers and we flicked rubberbands around the office.

When I was managing an orchard out in Nevada, we had to irrigate the property with water from a nearby spring. In order to do this, you have to have very costly 'water shares', and must open/close gates in the ditches upstream to route the water to your property, this was always a fun task as you'd always have to check the ditches for those who are stealing water (barely cracking their gate as to not lower the level too noticably), but then there were times when the factory across the street would have TOO much water, so they'd shut off their gate and then it was a 'free for all', more or less, to whoever could get that water.

Since we had 5 ponds to fill, acres and acres of orchard to irrigate, we'd always be awake at the oddest hours directing water to the proper areas of the property. Watering was no less than a 12 hour process, which rare occasions when we had EXCESS water for 24+ hours where no one would sleep (or we'd do it in shifts) to manage and direct the water.

Always a fun time.
