I am currently sitting in a conference exhibition hall on the Gold Coast of Australia at an Agricultural Economics conference. It is a Sunday and this is the second day of the conference. I set up the booth yesterday between 6-8am.
My job is as a publisher of academic journals for a major international academic journal and book publisher. I love my job. Howver, from time to time it requires me to occasionally go to conferences of mind-numbing tedium and sit on a booth and try to give away journals and sell books v=for several days. These conferences are almost always in the sort of shitholes that are ok if you're on a family holiday but are utterly tedious if you like music, books, nice bars etc.
This is undoutably the shittest part of a job that over all I am very happy in.
I'm hoping that there will be some porn theatre cleaners or something else on here who will make me feel better about sitting here for the next three days. So ... what's the shittest part of your working life?
