Interesting.

Personally I think most jobs which involve going into an office, sitting behind a computer for 9 hours a day, and then going home are pretty terrible. Bonus points for eating lunch at your desk. Double bonus points if you face the wall or have nobody else to talk to during the day.

That's pretty much mine. But I do get paid very well for it so swings and roundabouts I guess. Plus I usually piss of after about 8.5 hours

Worst job.. no idea.

But the worst aspect of a job for me would be the policemen having to knock on a door at something o'clock in the morning and having to start a conversation with 'can we come in'. I really cannot think of anything worse.
Completely, knowing that when you knock on that door the world is going to fall out of someones ar5e in 3...2...1....

I've had some pretty terrible jobs over the years, all via agencies when home from uni for the summer months trying to earn a few quid.

Couple that stick in the mind are; the McCain factory, where I had to pick out black/green chips from a conveyor belt of millions of the bloody things rumbling past all day.

Some cheese factory that was producing those cheese & port Xmas gift boxes. Ceramic dishes came down a conveyor and melted cheese was squirted in so it would solidify in the dish. My job was to wipe off any errant drips of hot cheese from the outside of the pots.

Bad times.

I had to do some work at a place where they make charcoal, without doubt the filthiest place I've ever seen. Inch thick black sludge covering the floor.

I will nominate my job for this morning. Landlord but manage and maintain my own properties. Nice and cosy i hear you say..Oh no not this morning.

A tenant of mine went batst crazy and pulled the soil stack clean off the wall outside, block of 5 bedsits so i put a notice on bathroom doors not to use the toilets until further notice.

Just as i am placing new stack pipe in place i hear a flowing water noise, 2 seconds notice before a bog full of shyte and tissue paper come tumbling out onto my shoulder. <insert wretching noises>

I still feel vile and ive had an hour long shower with plenty of detol.

fking vile. Tenant in question now arrrsted thankfully. Drunk and locked himself out by all accounts.

I know that the money is excellent, but I've always thought that being a dentist is a pretty grim job.

On your feet all day, with a conveyor belt of people with dubious dental hygiene breathing on you.

Over 36 years of work I've only spent 4 weeks of it in an office environment and it was hell. Complete boredom being stuck in one place indoors all the time, ridiculous, infantile office politics and petty disagreements that became huge issues (he used my mug without asking me, that's why we haven't spoken for 6 months).

I found the whole experience soul destroying. I know office work is "the norm" but I'd rather stick a needle in the whites of my eyes than go back and do that again.

I've never seen a dentist stand except to greet patients. Dad spend most of the day parked on a chair, with nurses bringing him coffee! He bloody loved the job! I rue the day he retired, my free dental treatment ended!

Pornstar (female) first few shifts great but then the work you have to take on to keep the money coming in yuck especially american porn. Already working in a brothel or a call girl when you quit you stay pretty anonymous.

God no. 9-5 is an absolute dream.

Mind, I'd have thought it all relative.

That's not normal, though.
