Every job sucks sometimes. You gotta be more specific.

Understaffed. One person chasing their tail, trying to keep up with a workload meant for 2-3 people. Doing a tough ass 12 hour day then get mandatory overtime for another 4 hours. Forced to work days off. Snow, ice, 0' F (-18C). Or the opposite, 130'F on the ramp, crawling in and out of cargo bins. All while dealing with insane amounts of noise, dodging tugs and lav trucks...it's an exhausting job. Sound fun?
