Worst job in the world?

[gingerjedi]

A mate and I when to Munich for the Oktoberfest a few years back, during the day we allowed our curiosity to get the better of us and had a browse in one of the numerous sex shops.

Once inside we realised there were pay-as-you-go movie cubicles, we didn’t use them but noticed a guy mopping them out and emptying the bins, he had to hold them up-side-down and tap the rim on the edge of his cart to get the more stubborn tissues out.

Does it get any worse?

Well if you wear gloves and a mask it might be easier than converting lotus notes forms into word....

Nursing can be quite unsavoury at times. Mrs Tester can tell some choice stories about 85 year old mental patients who’ve inserted things they shouldn’t have inserted into places they shouldn’t have inserted them, cleaning up homeless women with maggot colonies in their orifice, and so on.

I have luckily taught her to refrain from telling her stories at the dinner table.

My uncle was a nurse at a hospital for people suffering from mental health problems. One of the patients used to use his own excrement to write his name on the walls.

Not the worst job as such but still one where a strong stomach is needed.

Maggots are also used in a controlled manner for cleaning wounds.

I think I'd rather suffer the sting of TCP personally...

Why was he in there in the first place?

Long time ago now. Long history of mental health problems I guess. Not sure exactly what triggered it all off or if was some kind of genetic disorder. Some patients were violent and lashed out instead.

Have to try that next time I sign a CT600 form...

Well I once worked in a microbiology lad at the local hospital. I had to poke around people poo looking for worms and spreading it out over culture plates for bacteriology tests.

Mondays where the worst as the poo had been festering over the weekend in the specimen bottles. You got a real stink opening them.
