What job would you hate the most? and why?

If you found yourself a role in a U.N. Mission somewhere, you could head off now, no need to worry about overpriced houses here!

Any job in aviation. Flying is a once or twice necessity for me to get from A to B for a holiday.

The thoughts on being on a plane 52 weeks a year would scare me. Nothing glamorous about it.

One of the guys that goes down into a sewer to clear “fatbergs”

a operative on a rendering plant

a brickie or a plasterer. A good way to break your body by the time your 40. plus having to get up at 5 every morning to be on site in Dublin for 7 is no craic either.

Prison warden

they get great holidays though. I once house-shared with a teacher and she almost had another half life that I didn't; when I'd get home from work she'd have been to visit a relative, been to the gym or baked a lasagne etc.

Think it is a good job for those living outside urban areas; salary is the same for all so cost of living (rent etc) huge for those in big cities.

I would hate to be a counselor/psychiatrist/psychotherapist. I can't imagine hearing about abuse and neglect, and it not affecting me deeply. I think I would be a complete mess. I know that some learn to be detached but I just don't think I could do it... I'd probably go on an equalizer-style vendetta run and end up in prison for life.

Fireman , pulling bodies from car wrecks & what not , no thanks

Chef. Working in a claustrophobic, hot, high stress environment, unsocial hours and having to deal with people issues left, right and centre. No wonder so many Chefs turn to drink or drugs. The film "Boiling Point" is a great representation.....

Never knew that.

It's crazy to think about it cause on one hand to be fit and healthy you should go the gym or run or cycle etc. But that's the thing, what's a workout? 45 mins to an hour...

If your job is physically demanding that's being required of you 9 to 5 each day. The wear and tear over years.

Just never really thought about it before. In my previous job it was back breaking work. Was only there for a year and some change. But looking back, most people were only in the job a couple of years. The oldest being like 42 or something. Never really twigged, as silly as it sounds, that if I did that for years it would have broke me up.

My father, uncles, cousins mostly trade people. Block layers, electricians, plumbers, laborers, plasterers etc all their lives. Bodies totally broken in bits by the age of 50. I reckon most of the damage was done when they were young too. Because the younger you are in the trades the heavier the work you have to do. Its not until they get a bit older that they are really calling the shots themselves. And only then when there isnt a recession where they have to take whatever sh!t hauling jobs they can get.

Now having said that most of them are older than me and would run rings around me when it camne to doing hard work, and would lift things i could only stare at, but they all do it nowadays with a groan and lots of rubbing of the backs and hips and limps and stoops.
