2 June 2005 10:05So last night I finished watching that series :The Worst Jobs In History". It is a pitty that they only focused on British jobs, but what do you expect from the BBC.
I think I have decided that the worst jobs are Tanner, Fuller, Leech Farmer, and Fish Wife, in that order. I could probably do all the rest of those jobs. Of course, I can't really handle bodily fluids, so wiping the kings ass, mucking out sewers and cess pits, and Doctor/Barber-Surgeon, may have been right out as well. Nit Picker would have been gross, but I've pulled fleas out of my dogs and cats in the past ... and actually any of the child labour jobs and Work House jobs were horrid. And Navvy was just too dangerous, and I boubt that there were any female Navy (though the massive amounts of beer may have made the danger seem reasonable). So that leaves the mind numbing jobs.
I think I'd loose my mind if I had to be a Herring Caller ...
I guess I'm left with Professional Hermit. Good pay and I'd get to avoid the idiot masses. ... A little cold, though, and I'd likely throw that stupid skull at the passers by. ... Hmmm ... Yeah, they were all pretty awful.
Yeah ... I don't want to be at work today ....
