    Working on an oil rig in the North Sea (in all weathers), has to be the worst job 'out there'.

    Depends on the wages, I would have though.

    In asnwer to the question, anything in supermarkets.

    Everything I don't like is either woke or fascist - possibly both - pick one.

    I wouldn't say "worst job" but a tough job that takes a tough person underneath.

    A nurse in all types, old folks/A&E/Home help special needs etc...

    Fire Department... car accidents and rescue, putting out fires is the easy part id say.

    A corner shop/chipper or a Garda that has to work in a rough area. They have to put up with some scumbags its unreal.


    The ol site Labourers can have it hard too.

    Zuckerberg is not a human.

    When he goes home at night he plugs himself into his charge cradle and powers back on when fully charged.

    The poor nurse in the West that's looking after 28 covid positive patients as all her colleagues are out sick with covid.

    Probably drained, exhausted, scared but doing it cos she actually cares.

    I'd do any job but that at the moment.

    A friend of mine worksi n a chicken processing plant , hes management level but started at 17 years after leaving school, hes pushing 50 now having worked their all his adult life. Married his childhood sweetheart too who also worked in the factory too.
    Apparently there 70 million plus chickens processed in Ireland yearly and over 350 chicken processing plants according to him.

    There are no more jokes to torment him with , though in a drunken moment recently he was asked if the chicken in snack boxes was from the same chicken.

    Residential care. Paid to be a punchbag/target for abuse daily. Companys that care about how much per child they can get over safety of their staff.

    While its not difficult to see why thevyoung people behave the way they do, after a while it just becomes a chore and any desire to help them goes out the window.

    Kinda think secondary teaching is up there at the moment, damned if they do, damned if they don’t.
    Pay not like it was years ago, practically a full time counselor, stats on everything, slated by parents as little Jonnie is not doing well.. little Jonnie could never actually be a little **** head.
    Was nosing in a school/parenting group thing a while back and the amt of posts of ‘go in there and give them hell, how dare they speak to my child like that..... stuff of nightmares’

    I insulated my attic once. You get hot, dripping with sweat, dusty, crawling around, spiders all over, possible wasp hives. I'd hate to do that for a living.

    Also, civil service - they have it hard.
