this has to be the worst job i have ever done
and i worked at sainsburys for 2 years.
so me and 4 friends thought why not lets work at a festival, pour some pints, see some bands have a laugh get paid.
if was one of those weekends which went from bad to worse.
we arrive on thrusday at 3 to the festival goers carpark opposite is a small field with a temporial office and portaloos. we are told this is our camp site, and i look aorund to see it is completely fenced off and is about 150metres square.
they say in 3 hours come to the marque and received your shifts.
so we ask how far is the nearest town 'o aobut 20min walk'
we start walking and after 40 mins we are on the same country road.
anna one of the girls in my car share of 4. wacks her thumb out and to my surprise we get picked up by a local who is driving people round for money.
for £5 he takes us to somerfield a 20 minute drive !!!
and back to camp.
where they haven't given us set shifts.
urgh even though this all happened in august thinking about it annoys em sooo much.
i'm gunna bullet point it to save time
- we weren't allowed into see the music, hence the fenced off camp. on the sat night me and my friend caroline went under it and i ripped my boxers open on the back.
- They were over staffed and not enough people were drinking (thats a first), we worked 6-8 hours a day when we should of work 10-12 hours
- our free emals were mircowaved and with about 150 people and 2 mircowaves this did not go well
- the heat at 9am woke up and for some reason there was abundance of spiders.
We left our shifts early on sunday with ease as they were over staffed.
drove home and i realsied i would never do it again.
