My best job is the one I'm at right now... which is in my apartment's 2nd bedroom (my "home office") because I work for myself.
Also tied for the best job is when I worked at an indoor skatepark during college. Actually, come to think of it, the skatepark was the best job I ever had. All we did was hang out with friends who we let ride for free, listen to music, watch videos and ballgames on the TV, eat burritos, take naps in the back when we were tired, and of course skate.
My worst job was the first full-time gig I accepted out of college. It crushed my soul. You know that movie office space? Well let's just say I had a case of the mondays all week long.

^^ It was through a combination of solar-panels/generators... hooked up to a LOT of battery storage that was strewn around the under-carriage (safely ofcourse)... For the cloudy days, there was a gas powered generator that ALSO has electrical input - so for SUPER sunny days, the generator could charge itself on the excess sun-power. I wanted to try and get a Kinetic generator - or something like it - to take advantage of the MOVING RV, but I couldn't finagle it and we were working on a budget. It's DEF. a lot of hard work (installing/fabricating/configur... but a really simple idea - and VERY rewarding... she's not done with it yet, but I'll post up when its all done... thinking about doing it myself in a few years once I make a name for myself :-D

best: video store in my old neighborhood. it was like working at empire records (minus the drugs...although a lot of weed smoking did go on). the customers were crazy in the best possible way, and the co-workers were random and cool as hell.
worst: i worked at a starbucks that had a drive-thru. so each morning at 4:30 I got to don a green apron, and headset. The customers were fat, crabby, unhappy souls. The co-workers were robots who were seemingly hopped up on speed.
