The worst job you have done

Painting a 7 foot high 200m galvanized fence with a 6" brush round the perimeter of my mates breakers yard all on my own.

 

After the first 2 weeks I was in pain and going a bit mad...especially as all I had achieved was to finish the base coat and had another `effin` 2 weeks of top coat left to do.......

 

never...never...again!!

i worked in a laboratory. Our job was to make shit sink faster (yes really). We had to go and fetch big barrels of shit from the sewage farm, bring it back to the lab in a mondeo (once it spilt in the car), and then add polymers to the shit (mixed up shit so very few turds left) to make the shit seperate from the water faster. The faster the shit sank, the better for the sewage farm as they could pump the now clean water into the river faster and therefore have more throughput of shit.

 

Very smelly job, luckly for me i didnt do it for long, but some people worked in their for years. God it was awfull.

I don't think much can compete with the things that the boys in blue among us have to go through, but i have done some pretty shite jobs over the years, done the farm bit, heavy work and lots of shite, had a job cleaning bricks for reclamation for about six weeks, thats all i could stand;) had my own sandblasting company, and did a lot of buildings, so much dust you cant actually see what you doing even with 500w lights, oh and carrying 1cwt bags of grit up three story buildings isn't fun;)

Any after a Vindaloo...oh hang on you mean occupation :p

 

:D

 

I had a job at a soap factory putting the pubes into bars!!:)

 

Seriously, had a job knocking door to door selling cable TV and phone.....:( Lasted 4 weeks before I gave up. Knocked on a door and a woman came out crying, she was expecting an ambulance as her husband had just died of a heart attack...:blink: I got the brunt of her distress to say the least!!

 

In the Police I had to cut a guy free who'd hung himself from a branch of a tree 20ft up!! He did it in the middle of a housing estate in July. There were loads of little kids watching too...:(

 

Believe it or not after 4 minutes of hanging lifeless he was ressucitated and survived. I was then told that he was a renowned local car thief and wished I hadn't bothered!!:rolleyes:

2, Removing 89 bodies and 2 heads from the morgue in pristina in kosovo (there had been no power for 3 months!!)

 

3, dealing with mine strike casualtys in iraq

 

4, picking up dog poo from the back garden, that just makes me heave!
