Everything that they say about Amazon is true. It’s a sweatshop and workers are treated like slaves. Didn’t make it to the end of my shift but I did put in several more hours than I should have and now my entire body hurts

One of my worst jobs was as an exterminator. I was willing to spend 12 hours digging through spiderwebs in rich people's dank, hot crawlspaces, but when they asked me to kill a family of voles at the end of my first shift I bounced and never looked back. They explicitly told me that we only dealt with bugs and that I wouldn't ever be asked to kill rodents or other mammals - that was my one condition that I made sure to ask about during the interview.
It was a miserable job and I'm sort of glad they gave me that out, but I really needed the money and had to go back to delivering pizzas for a while. I wish I could say I was still so principled, but I've been beaten down by capitalism in the time since and I'd probably just bite my tongue and do it if I were still there. Here's to quitting!
