I talked to this guy the other day who worked for the highway dept and his whole job was picking up roadkill. to me that's the worst job anyone could have. I'd be curious to see what others think.?

I think that any job that someone works their hardest at - and uses to support their family or themselves is noble and important.

As Dolly Parton says..."somebody's gotta do it"

That said....I think the worst job would be 7th grade teacher

Cleaning a port-o-let - trust me on that one!

Yes, definitely. Podiatry can't be fun & interesting either.

This is gross, but you asked! I used to work w/ a woman whose hubby was a garbageman. He forbid her to serve anything with rice in it during the summer, cuz it reminded him of maggots.

I get pissed at my garbagemen for blocking my driveway w/ the can after they've emptied it, but then I quickly get over it, cuz they have a terrible job....

Hey, muff diver! You may just be right on that one!

being a prostitute would probably be the worst profession imaginable.

I think a Mortician/Embalmer is a really disgusting and weird job.

I think it's all about context. After all, several of the "worst" jobs mentioned here carry very high paychecks. Sure, some may not want to be a gyno, but the pay is high. To me the worst job is one with low pay and low satisfaction.
