What is the worst job you ever had?

For me, I tried selling funeral plots when I was 16. It was commission only and very depressing

Do landscaping on and off. One of the jobs I had once I will never forget. Guy's property had really poor access from the road and he needed around 4-5 trailer loads of bark mulch up to his section. I had to fill a small wheelie bin (weighed about 120 pounds) and lug it up a huge flight of steps to his property. 25 hours and hundreds of trips later I got it done.

had a summer job during college - doing S the normal guys didn't want to do... had to install a pump in a septic tank.. that was pretty bad (had to tell myself it was just "mud", but at least it only took about a day to complete... the company shuts down for two weeks and I needed cash so I went to work at the guys jewelry mfg place... polished jewelry before it was plated... had to wear gauze tape on fingers to keep from burning them b/c the jewelry would get hot when polished on a buffing wheel... My back hurt like hell, and had black boogers for a month after that... lol... makes me love my little keyboard...

Worst job-cleaning the kill floor at a meat plant.
Best job-I designed and carved headstones for 7 years.
