My Worst Job. Have a story?

My Worst Job

Yes, we've all had'em. Bizarre jobs we don't care to admit until a friend thinks they have a worse story - Oh yeah?

Job titles that require lengthy explanation. (Mine tops everyone's: Roach Coach Driver.)

Job descriptions so strange, pointless or insane, you can't believe you ever did that. (Wilderness Guru takes the cake: he worked for a bomb factory. Ever have something actually blow up on the job?)

Bosses that were let out of the looney bin, just for you.

Or that day at work that would make anyone decide... no thanks. (The Puppy's worst day: off the coast of Alaska, up to his waist in bilge water, pouring quick-set concrete to fill that, er, hole the boat developed.)

For some reason these shitty jobs all pay badly. (Roach Coach? $200/week, cash. Bomb Factory? $4.75/hour. Sinking boat? No one could pay enough.)

Now there's a use for these stories - to entertain the multitude! I'm doing a tongue-in-cheek column for the college newspaper, and I want to hear from you.

[Poll #392948]


ETA: I'm finding that the maximum space allowed on these polls really doesn't leave enough space for these description-defying jobs. So if it's too short (it was for me) just go ahead and leave the story in comments.

ETA2: Okay, "Elver Gatherer" tops "Roach Coach Driver", any day of the week. Thanks, Webba.

ETA3: cordelia_v! *snort* *splutter!* *wheeze!* Ahahahahahaha!
