    What's the worst place you've ever worked

    As in location. As per the earlier post, Birmingham wasn't a highlight. Hounslow perhaps comes a close second.

      Funnily enough, two jobs I've been tapped about over the past couple of months have been Solihull council and Houndslow council! Seems like I've had a narrow escape eh?!!

      For me though it has to be hands down, Warrington I still shudder now at the thought of it!

        Ditto. And I had to stay at the Travel Inn. Probably the lowest point of my life.

          Christ almighty, I weep for you. At least it was a commutable distance for me.

                Seconded.

                Worked there as a permie in the dim and distant past.

                  That photo is truly bleak. It reminds me of the shopping centre in Cumbernauld which won a carbuncle award.
