Did /pol/ ever have a dirty job? What was the worst part of your day?
>>25305989I worked as a butcher that was pretty messy. Doing dog mince was probably the most fucked because we used a lot of spoiled meat for it. Worst part of the job was freezer work though, just because we already got wet from working then we had to go into the freezer.
>>25305990I would hate to be in a freezer all day.
>>25305989I've had a few but the worst was the boat factory where I worked in the cut room few months. We had to wear chemical-resistant coveralls and respirators because of the amount of fiberglass in the air. The worst part was that the skin of my face was exposed so all day it would itch and burn like hell. The work itself was piss-easy though.
>>25305989> What was the worst part of your day?Listening to retarded boomers, who never had to work a hard day in their life, telling me how easy I got it.
>>25305989Always hated the colleagues more than any work I ever had.
>>25305989hand dip electroplating.tons of awkward heavy lifting, hex chrome ulcers, acid burns, poisonous air, electrocutions, hydrogen explosions... like 1800s industrial age level safety
>>25305989Plumbing. It paid less than minimum wage.
>>25305989>Did /pol/ ever have a dirty job?nopeI enjoyed cushy work from home on the PC until the post-covid stock market boom alowed me to quit work entirely
>>25305992Why couldn’t you cover your face with a handkerchief or something?>>25305995This sounds like one of those jobs where people work for 6 months and then get the hell out.
>>25305990>>25305991freezers suck. worked in ice cream factory freezer one hot summer. cold suits were shared and had sleeves covered in other people's snot, broken zippers. Got sick in about a week and quit.
You know the poop that comes out of Indians’ butts? I make the poop.
>>25305998>This sounds like one of those jobs where people work for 6 months and then get the hell outHard jobs to fill. They hired a lot of convicts and drunks. Do it too long and you'll die from pulmonary edema at 50. Most of that work has gone to shithole countries now.
>>25305995What is a hex chrome ulcer?
>>25305998The respirator would make it a bitch to do that.
>>25305989>Was garbage man>also welder>Need to work sixty hours to make it look good on paperEveryday was the worst part op
>>25306002I had them all up and down my armsA chrome ulcer (also called a "chrome hole") is a deep, crusted skin or mucosal lesion caused by direct contact with hexavalent chromium (Cr(VI)) solutions, dusts, or chromic acid
>>25306004Which job paid more?
>>25305989I was a merchandiser for Pepsi
>>25306005Did you at least avoid breathing in the dust?
>>25306006Garbage man in my experience.. There's always trash .. Welding depends on production, need unless your on the road. But you can do that with being a otr rolloff driver.
>>25305989Salmon drift netting. 140 hour weeks, sometimes more. No reason to do it if you're not young. Hard work is for dumbasses. Illegals deflating labor value should be killed. Legal immigrants or visas need kicked out.
I worked on a oil drilling rig. It was not a big company. The pay was little, the work was grueling, and the equipment was old and worn out. Mostly no safety regulations. I took the job because its all there was. And it made me begin to hate capitalism.
>>25305989I had to apply to have my trust dispersement increased monthly. It meant writing a letter which was a diabolical amount of stress.
>>25305989Yes, oil refinery worker, worst part of the day the moment I clock in, best part of the day the moment I clock out, shift working sucks, never work shifts if you can avoid them.
>>25305989I went from running my.netscape.com to roofing in California summersit suckeddemolition sucks too
worked in wastewater treatment fuck that shit. the worst were the fag coworkers who developed a running gag out of describing the flavor of the daily smell. bros you cant imagine how it smelled inside the fat treatment hall holy shit we got that shit in truck loads
>>25306008It was 20 years ago. The dust was never a problem because you wear a respirator and don't handle often. The resulting liquid bath though... It gets in tiny abrasions and you can't feel it destroying skin. Evil shit. That Erin Brokovitch movie was about hex chrome. a carcinogen too
I worked at a fur company for a few months. Doing various disgusting tasks like scraping muskrats. You have no idea the smell of that place. You never do get used to it. Last i knew there was no money n that shit anymore...this was back in the 90s when the market was there.
>>25305989washing hands and not getting them look like human ones after work
>>25306013>oil refinery workerFucking dangerous. Gotta be damn careful about flash points. Also fuck going anywhere near the cat cracker. One small rupture in those vessels and you are pretty fucked even if you are fairly far away.
>>25305989I once had to watch that filthy jew Rowe pretend he knew what work was. Vile.
>>25305989I had a job before college doing bathroom repairs and sometimes we took contracts on housing projects. you had to clean up before you could start the work so there were days that I was mopping up nigger piss. Fortunately I went STEM so those days are gone forever
>>25305989Alaskan cannery summer job. It was shit just getting up and dressed and onto first shift of 3X six-hours. Fuck it - I loved surviving it through, though - the trick to banking money was not to go drinking because everything was expensive. It was real trippy myth-of-Sysyphus stuff when I got into the near-mystic zone of grading fresh or re-grading frozen at lightning speed because they ran the belt conveyers and ice cold sugar-water dip machines as fast as possible.The two worst individual experiences were a) getting some kind of blood poisoning I think, and dreaming I was still working, and having to hold on to the walls to get up and walk to the bathroom because my whole field of vision was swerving like a conveyer; and b) at the very end, I briefly went over to offer help to a guy who was spraying out the sump tank, and the stink was so bad, so ineffably foul and strong, that even after having soaked my coveralls in bleach water, I later had to just burn them. But fuck it, I loved it, and I banked money.
>>25305989Did /pol/ ever have a dirty job?I worked at one of those places people send their elderly off to die at. I worked in the laundry room and more than half the clothes were soaked in urine and had shit on them. So yeah, fun times. I actually ended up quitting that one in part because I found them yelling shit like"kill me!" into the hall too disturbing for me.
Every job I've ever had has been made shitty by shitty people, so many shitty, lazy, complacent, worthless, elitist, and most of all petty people, all afraid more than anything else to lose the job they fucking despise.And while there used to be jobs that took you away from the metrics that demand such people, like surveying, that's all gone now after covid and the clot shots. .So neeting and working the stock market it is. Boost up, you worthless pieces of shit. Won't be long now. 2030, here we come.
>>25306010I don’t understand. Did you drink yourself to sleep for 2 hours each night?>>25306015I’d need $50/hr minimum to do something like that.
>>25306015How was it once the aerator stop?
>>25305989I was a lifeguard for two years and had to tend to maintaining chemicals for both the pool and the men's only jacuzzi. Since it was in such a secluded area of the building, the old senile fucks who would use it would get up to some truly heinous shit in there. I've seen people shave, jack off, and piss themselves and I'd almost always have to be the one to clean it up since I was one of the only guards who worked full time and was allowed to be in the men's room
cleaning bathrooms at a national park
>>25305989Yes. The worst part of my day was feeling my brain rot from the tedium and repetition. I spent my childhood sacrificing fun and play to build up my mind for nothing.
As far as shittiest job, tunnel laborer for the city of Edmonton. 10-12 hour days underground with the shittiest society has to offer. Old drunks just doing their time waiting for retirement were the highest quality of humanity you were likely to encounter. Working at the waste water treatment plant was several steps up on the ladder.
>>25305989Ya>cleaning bloody tampons&shit out of the sewerpipe
>>25306025"There's always something to do on a boat". I'm first or second mate on any boat I'm on, so there's always something to be doing. Fish & Game sets the the allotted fishing periods, and you fish them the entire time. The last season I worked the opener was 48 hours, and so I worked 56 hours because we have to drop off fish to Tenders clean the fish holds and brailer / canvas bags. I wanna say we had 6 hours to fish 2 hours after the 48 hour period was over. You literally don't sleep for days, sometimes.
>>25305995Aren't all those risks basically why nothing is chromed in the US anymore?
>>25306011Worked a rig after university to pay the loan, working with invert.I had blackheads on any exposed scar tissue up until my late 30's. Glad I wore a mask mixing that shit in, but I'm sure I got a lot just from skin contact.
>>25305989>Did /pol/ ever have a dirty job?Yeah, wiping ur mom's shit hole clean with my tongue.
>>25305989I'm a commercial glazier.>What was the worst part of your day?Doing a risky as fuck job for some $$ and validating it by having confidence in my abilities and the fact that I have people depending on me.
>>25305989I briefly worked cleaning trash chutes in Chicago.Often we were scheduled to clean the compactors at the bottom floor. Almost without fail, the building superintendents would leave the chute doors unlocked. Bags of garbage would fly down, at breakneck speed, and explode. The worst missiles contained spoiled milk or wine bottles.
>>25305989LOLHalf this board are Elliot Rodger tier NEETs.
>>25306022Watched Dutch Harbor this spring. Grim. But definitely an area I want to visit.
>>25306033Hex chrome got replaced by safer tri chrome in a lot of processes. Really, it's all the wastewater/chemical treatment and disposal. EPA made it really hard and spendy. LOTS of former plate shops that are now superfund sites.Worker health was probably their last concern.
>>25306010Holy shit that boat is a mess. Is the skip a fat?
>>25306028how many dildos did you find?
Oil change place. Worst part wasn't getting covered in oil or tranny fluid, it was talking to the customers. The company wanted us to upsell additional services to them and I hated doing that.
>>25306026shit and piss is mild compared to rotten fat. i cant find any words to describe it to be honest
>>25305989Im an electrician. Working in attics or in super old dirty basements suck. But I hate doing anything that has me digging a trench outside. I hate digging so fucking much. Even landscape lighting sucks cock. But ripping open old 100 year old lathe and plaster walls with blown in insulation, and dealing with 20, 75lb bags of plaster and wood and dust, is the dirtiest shittiest work.
>>25306015The condom/tampon/etc pretreatment 'grit' scrapers, filling up a dozen dumpsters daily, were eye opening. You haven't lived until you've seen hundreds of red tipped, football sized tampons tangled together around the pond skimmers.
>>25306041Drift netter. Stern picker. They have big spools on the back. I think you're thinking of a seiner, of which I have also worked on. It was put together in 2018. Same type of boat everyone uses. They're a dime a dozen in Bristol.
Commercial electrician, when I was an apprentice I used to do social housing jobs which meant having to try and work around the resident pitbull / drug addict.
Had to unstuck just about every disgusting and vile thing people throw down a toilet in a water treatment plant one summer. Sucked but pay was probably triple what other kids my age were making at the time. Condoms were some of the worst things to unstuck.
>>25306034Before rig work I was an oilfield roustabout. Which is just all the dirty low level jobs like cleaning tanks, digging holes, or wrenching all day. Worm duty. After that I graduated to swamper (crane rigger) you help the crane operator by rigging up the loads with wire rope or soft sling and you are supposed to use a tag line. After that I was a welders helper. Never learned to weld but I do know a lot about fitting pipe. I finally got my own A frame truck to hall pipe around at the end before I secured a rig position. I started out on production rigs just changing pumps and bailing sand. After that I did some workover stuff on a bigger double. Finally I made it onto an actual drilling rig. Eventually, 2008 crash hit and I lost my job because I didn't have enough time on the rig.Fumbled my way to college somehow and have never left.
>>25306044>rotten fatThe sick sweet smell of death. I can literally imagine what it's like to find a 600lb cadaver that's been dead on the toilet for a month, basically absorbing it. You can taste it.
>>25305989I'm a land surveyor, worst part of a day would be looking for non-existent property corners on a very hot day or getting inside storm sewer pipe. The job can suck bigly at times but there's not a huge risk of injury thankfully. Nowhere near as bad as some in this thread.
>>25306052How do you get into that?
>>25306050I can't imagine having to graduate onto rig work. Started as a lease hand and 2 weeks later I was stud roughneck on a telescoping double, because everyone else quit after doing 6 months of 5 day holes around Hannah.Getting on a triple out north of Edson on the ANC road was a dream compared to that. We did like 4 pacesetter holes in a row out there, and for saving them literally $millions we all got a $20 belt buckle and a $50 Canadian tire card. Fucking greasy cunts.
>>25306052Surveying was the best job I ever had. Paid to run your own equipment, work alone, use your head, self starting self sufficient self managed. Now it's all fucking poos undercutting your rates and zero fucks given because the government subsidizes the companies upwards of $7000 a month for the favor. This fucking world is done.
>>25305989back in the last foreclosure crash worked cleaning out houses or should I say nigger hives. Some of them were really bad.
>>25306053Apply, knowing you'll be spending an entire season in camp making $17/hour.Or go get a 2 year geomatics or civil diploma from a tech school, or go to university and get your degree and spend just as much time articaling as you did in school.
>>25305989I did some time with the army, worst was probably when we were doing field training and went with out a shower for like a week or so. That sucked so much ass. Always a fresh hell to sleep in mold covered barracks with no AC in the summer. Oh, and any NBC training was literal hell, trapped in a rubber suit, breathing made 2x worse by the mask, just drenched in summer heat and sweat. It makes you tough, but god damn does it suck. Glad to have left before commissioning. Being stuck 5 years would have been hell.
>>25306043I've worked a few jobs like this and I agree, the constant upselling is the worst. Usually, if you listen to customers (and they can at least articulate their needs) there are plenty of billable services you can sell. But it's never enough for management. Oh, 100k in sales last quarter? Highest in the company? Well, why was it not 200k? You literally cannot win.
>>25305989I did a tiny stint on a grain receival facility in the Aussie outback. Living onsite 24/7 and no town within 100km. My "colleagues" were literally ex-cons and retards. There were only three of us who were not retarded crims so we had to run the whole facility while the other dipshits literally bogged the grain elevators. The boss had to unbog a tonne of grain out of one elevator by hand in 40 degree heat. We worked 12 to 14 hour shifts in insane heat and grain dust that literally destroys your lungs. Yeah I guess that qualifies as a dirty job.
Lobster manFlat rooferconcretejanitorretail(people are gross)worked at an insulated glass factory the sealants stained all my clothimg black
>>25306044Yes I know the smell. I worked at a BBQ joint. Once a month the vac truck came to suck out the grease pits under the manhole covers out back. It was nothing but shit and fat? Idk but the smell was absolutely disgusting. What do those pits actually contain?
>>25305989Cleaned hospital rooms for ten years. Made good money. But the infectious diseases, lice, scabies, C-diff, Tuberculosis, etc that I had to suit up to prevent to contract while in these rooms? Not worth it, honestly. Nurses were mean as piss too.
>>25306042no dildos but multiple times i found stalls sprayed with shit like they just opened the door, faced the toilet with their ass and let fly. usually on the women’s side. another time some chink was taking a bath in a large dump sink that rv’s would empty their sewage into. tourists aren’t sentient.
Used to be a mechanic. The vehicles were biohazards often.
>>25306064nasty. My buddy worked at a park in Oregon. Found a couple dildos in showers, always some faggot coming on to him
>>25305989Work as a janitor in the city.I clean water locks in shower drains and unclog toilets every day.On other occations I fill potholes, shuffle snow and do general maintance all around the complex.It sucked for the first +10 years or so years mainly cause there weren't many in my age range there, still isn't with most of my collague pushing retirement age.I'm in my 30's now and still the youngest in my department, feel like I am being treated like a teenage assistant by some of my more senior in my department even though I do more work than they do and the shit they are supposed to do cause they're either too old or fat to do it themselves.>What was the worst part of your day?Putting on a glove and crushing a turd in two with my hand cause it's too big to be flushed, don't happen often but it's easliy the worst.
>>25306015>you cant imagine how it smelled inside the fat treatment hallLike magas armpit.
>>25306055Did you vote for it?
>>25305989I worked on junkyard. That is something that faggot actor Rowe may call dirty job. It was cold to work outside in winter. Worst when you drive forklift. I was there for forklift experience and left before christmas. Salary was joke. Also we had lot of ukrainians there. Idiots were drinking in job and heil hitlering. Subhumans indeed.
>>25306067>tfw you will be the youngest person at your job for the rest of your life>>25306070Lmao
>>25306070Based ukiesYou sound like a fag.
>>25305989The worst part of my day was not screwing my fellow security guard. This hot little Latina who wanted it when we were doing a walk through. Ugh I should have just gone for it.
>>25305989enlistedit was gay
>>25305989thee dirtiest job I've had is crawling under my own house to fix the plumbing because I refuse to pay illegals to do itfeels good
>>25306074most people regret it and get out after 4 years. only the best of goy cucks stay forever
>>25306063is that a toilet on the USS Abraham Lincoln?
>>25305989I used to clean the slop off college kids plates at the cafe. Does that count? I was always soaking wet at the end of the night and covered in the leftovers from college kids' plates.
>>25306069Have voted once in my life 20 years ago, and never again.If you vote, you can complain, because no matter what you get, you're getting what you voted for. The only way forward is non participation.
>>25305989Several.- lasted a whole six hours at a porn shop. The guy who thwacked a 20$ bill soaked in sweat and cum down onto the glass counter was almost the highlight of the night.- as janitorial staff for a mini mall during winter, having to pick cigarette butts out of the snowbanks at the edge of the parking lot then getting yelled at by homeless people who had been planning on taking those butts- the sheer amount of poop I have to see when I service medical equipment in care facilities.- refurbishing/doing maintenance on a seagoing fish packing vessel while it's in port, getting covered in fish parts working on the conveyor systems, which isn't that big of a deal in the hold because the temps are below freezing. The bus ride home in August temperatures, however... For a few weeks, I was "that guy" on the bus.- pic sorta related. Doing maintenance for either medical equipment or apartment rentals when sub Saharan africans are involved often results in similar facepalm moments. Niggers have a phenomenal capacity for being stupid.
>>25305989I carve boats if that counts
>>25306079>if you vote, you CAN'T complainDoing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results is the definition of insanity.
>>25306081worst part is having to do the work of others when they quit or demand they stop for a smoke
>>25306074Did you have a battle buddy in the showers, protect your flaps when you dropped the soap ?
>>25306084It's not about who drops the soap; it's about who picks it up.
>>25306085Reason for the protection, only your trusted fren in the fox hole. Not just some stranger .
>>25305989Dirty jobs are what redpilld me on life you can literally be a black tar heroin shooting fuck and you can still get a job since no one wants to do any actual work
>>25305989janitor, and the worst thing was a bathroom that day crew just put an out of order sign on and left the mess. this was a kmart, womens bathroom. the walls inside the stall, both sides, the back, and the inside of the door were covered in shit. adding to that, it was on the roof, and the floor. looked like a fucking jeet exploded in there...toilet was spotless
>>25306078That’s a mildly dirty job. I was a dishwasher for a while. Being covered in leftover food is not the same as being covered in literal shit or toxic chemicals.
>>25305989Before I was an electrician I was a plumber snaking lines down nigger toilets. The nigger poop all smelled the same. The rich suburban white poop was fucking demonic and finally did me in. If there aren't roaches crawling in the sewage system you know the people are full of toxic sludge. Also prison guard was kind of messy
>>25306089fair
>>25305989Dirty jobs was always dumb, the issue was never "ew no I can't work with my hands" it's that the jobs are monotonous, unfulfilling, and destroy your body. I wouldn't mind doing any job in that show for a few days, in fact it's kinda fun to learn new hard labour, but doing it for 50 years is what causes you to become an alcoholic with no drive. The engineer can rise to be a plant manager and eventually a CEO, the assembly line worker is an assembly line worker and will remain as such until he retires, the sewage treatment engineer can become the city's waste management official someday, the guy cleaning out sewer clogs will do that until he's 70.
>>25306062I had to clean out a restaurant grease trap once. Undid the lid, gagged, screwed the lid back down, and asked my manager if I could do it the following week. Manager asked why, I said I had national guard duty that weekend and wanted to get a gas mask from the armory.Got my mask, installed new filters, and STILL could faintly smell the grease trap when I opened it. I could walk thru clouds and rooms of CS gas in training no prob with that mask, but a restaurant grease beat the seals on the mask.
Labourer for a bricklayer, the mortar dust got everywhere. I'm not the biggest lad so lifting the mortar bags was some heavy work
>>25306093what a gigantic fucking pussy.
>>25306056Doing maintenance on properties that rent to blacks... Niggers add 10-20%+ on rents in buildings where niggers live.
Many years ago as a recent graduate I took a job in a psychiatric care home. I was at a bit of a crossroads in life and disillusioned with the career (creative industry) I had previously planned to enter as it was full of insufferable, overly-educated left wing types. I made the unconventional choice to go work in the trenches and actually contribute to a worthy cause - looking after people with complex mental health problems who had eventually developed dementia. I did this for nearly 4 years. It was an incredibly bleak environment. People died all the time. You'd see a new resident arrive fairly lucid and the environment would cause them to go downhill quite rapidly. Or there would be residents who had clearly been highly competent people in their younger days struggling with the reality of their situation. Many of my colleagues were low skilled workers who couldn't do anything else and looked suicidal. I don't think I actually ate lunch the entire time I was there simply because the smell of stale urine and shit killed my appetite. I saw some pretty terrible things, like suicide attempts. Lots of arterial spray. Whilst I was doing that people I knew from my old life were doing performative activism and marching on the street and larping as counter cultural communists, or whatever - useless platitudes that contributed fuck all to society. They were so proud of themselves for going out on the weekends with placards; self righteous fart sniffers that lived in a bubble of their own privilege.
>>25306081Boat carving sounds awesome. Though there must be parts of the job that are not awesome, because many more people would be doing it otherwise.
>>25306022>the trick to banking money was not to go drinking because everything was expensiveYeah, I didn't get the retards who wasted their money on that.
>>25305989Toxic waste disposal. The number of laws I saw getting broken every day was beyond mindblowing.Hand off at the border was the worst part. Most of the toxic waste was stored in hazard tankers. The hard part was the physical crap. Liquid and gas were the safest to work with, funnily enough. Even the gas could be pressurized or supercooled. It was the solid shit you had to watch out for because the way it was stored was both the least safe and most suspicious. NOBODY wants to check out a fucking hazardous tanker but a big heavy ass crate? Not to mention how hard that shit was to move.The only other job I can think of that is anywhere in the same league of fucked up was crime scene cleanup. FUCK that. They don't fuck around with toxic waste but the crime scene cleaners are a bunch of fucking cheapskates who overcharge you as if it were a premium service because they hide behind the evidence and biohazard label. Bullshit.If it's a biohazard, you can burn it 99% of the time and it will be fine but instead they charge you like you were dealing with something as difficult as toxic waste. Don't fuck around with toxic waste anons, ESPECIALLY if it's one of those hellish cocktails from mixtures. Run like hell from those. For biohazards, the answer is #1 fire and #2 strong chemicals. Biohazard is the easiest to deal with by far.
>>25306098Dhow boats. I am in the management process now more than actually creating them. It requires skilled person who knows what they are doing or takes pride in their work. I would actually go down and go back to carving some days but the management position pays well where I am at. the biggest problem here is getting people who care enough about the small stuff. which I understand, it doesn't pay as well as someone who sells or rents them. Some days I prefer picking up a carving blade as opposed to the computer.

>>25306081>>25306083>>25306101rare
>>25306100>The number of laws I saw getting broken every day was beyond mindblowingAsbestos removal when that became a thing was so fucking inconsistent. You'd have to suit up to go in and strip it out, bagging everything up in super duty trash bags. Then, when you'd take it out to the land fill, the bags get tossed off the trucks into a pile, and bulldozers come and shove everything around. Bags torn everywhere, dozers driving over the bags, dust everywhere.That was my first real-life wake up call regarding what people get worked up about, what people think the government is regulating, what is actually regulated, and how the strictures of those regulations are dealt with by the people doing the actual work.
>>25306095jeet.
>>25306045yep i was an industrial/commercial electrician for 5 years after high school in the late 2000s, everyday i just felt overwhelmed by dirt, dust, rust, grease, just crawling through ventilation or machinery rooms, shit was dangerous af depending on retards to remove fuses or turn-off breakers to multi-source panels and monitors, glad i left that behind, it was a hard decision to quit electrician because i left just when the money was getting decent, seeing assholed that talked down to me in high school make 2-3x what i made straight out of college was demoralizing af, ended up joining the military and going to college later
>>25306104The best part is when they don't tell you what it is that's toxic and the required safety equipment. I still have chills from when we had to go drain old tanks from 'proper disposal sites' that literally took everything they were given and dumped ALL into the same tank/container...which they just let sit there. No filtering. No separate containers for different substances. Of course nobody remembers what or when stuff was put inside. Just tanks full of hellish nightmare fuel that would have set the biggest chemical warfare loving war criminal running, screaming, in the opposite direction. Much less the chemical engineers.A lot of that stuff you don't even want touching your skin at all. Yet they make it sound like a gloves and mask is all you need. LMAO. Nope. You want full suit with all the bell whistles because you are never going to a job where they actually cataloged and stored shit properly so you know what your dealing with.As for the 'actual disposal' part of the job? LOL. That is what the border is for! The only toxic waste they bother keeping an eye on is radioactive. As soon as it is over the border they don't care and they will 'dispose' of it properly. My God, the level of war crimes I saw being done on a daily basis solely because of removing the mess rather than properly disposing is something else.Yeah the pay was great and it was a very quiet work because nobody wanted to fuck with you but damn it was really rough finding out about what was being done with it and the sheer stupidity of its storage and theoretical disposal. People have no idea how bad it actually is. Proper disposal really isn't a thing unless it's something easy like biohazard. They just move it to a new dumping ground.
>>25305989I process donations at the salvation army. Pretty often people just use us to throw away trash that can't be sold.
>>25306097The most horrifying feature of aging is cognitive decline. Growing increasingly physically inept until you can die by falling over and not being able to get up isn't great either, but the mind is what scares me the most. Aging basically makes you regressive cognitively to a childlike state, you start fucking things up like you're a 5 year old. One of my grandfathers greatest hits was leaving little jars of gasoline all around our barn. Now I can see using a little gasoline in a jar to clean a brush, but forgetting them all over a building is something an easily distracted toddler would do. Not only was it a huge fire hazard, if our building went up it would look like fucking arson.
>>25306081Rare.>>25305989Cant complain too much from reading the whole thread.It was not thay dirty and i wasnt there very long.
diesel/plant mechanic for a tallow/grease processor. 22-23 years old. only shop that was teamster drivers (but not the mechanic) in that company. it was either niggers, old salty union guys near retirement or a few crazy wetbacksthey had 2 retard niggers working the steam area. had a plant boiler that melted solid waste fat into liquid so it could be pumped into other tanks or barrels w/e. we dealt with waste food of all kinds including butcher scraps, fish scraps (one time, the driver rolled in with 20k pounds of undersized crabs that they couldn’t sell due to this faggot state laws, (took a bunch home to eat as they where still alive), roadkill, SPCA (gassed, then frozen solid unwanted pets) that arrived in 55 gallon drums, food scrape from old folks homes. the worst part was definitely the stink. worst smell there was a few barrels of old, solid grease that had sat somewhere for years and had turned rancid. that shit stank because that had to melt it with the steam until they could process it out. ok, time for shenanigans, so back to the nigger plant operators. handsome harry i will call him (always talked about muh dik) and craig. we had a 40 footer tanker that was heated with propane burners to keep the waste kitchen grease nice and warm and liquid. it would pour out very easy. well, one time the propane heater stopped working due to a short in the electrical line (all equipment was very old). the niggers opened up the valve at the back of the truck to decant the liquid oil. nothing came out as it had congealed at the valve. the nigger known as handsome harry decided to unlock that door and open it. it was a hatch type with seals that could be opened for servicing. the entire contents of that fully loaded tanker that was still liquid, spilled out on both niggers and and covering about a 1/2 acre of asphalt. inside the shop and heard the niggers hooting/chimpin’i came out to look and almost shit my pants whilst braying like a donkey with laughter

really makes you think if white actually get mad these jobs are getting "stolen" by immigrants

Spent a few years working in a medical lab as a processor. I've handled the piss,shit,snot,cum,blood and tissue of thousands of people. Got to see some truly fucked shit.. one that stuck out was some african girl who had contracted some parasite and it resulted in her urine being off white.. it smelt like an old wet bandaid.Another place I worked at an environmental testing lab as a dispatch pleb. Not particularly dirty but much more repetitive work. This was in a time where boomers were freaking out about their rental homes possibly being contaminated with meth residue.. all sorts of fear mongering shit was going around saying if you kids lick the wallpaper they'll become crackheads. We used to supply the test kits to independant contractors who would go round and swab peoples homes.. some of the companies we would supply to had names like "MegaMeth, Super Meth Bros and Dont Meth Around". One day i was working alone on a saturday morning and a ghoulish looking women showed up irrate and demanding kits. I clicked at that moment she was probably smoking meth in peoples houses and telling them its been used as a lab.. this racket made good money as well. Felt really bad that day knowing some meth witch was a much better capitalist than the pleb putting swabs into bottles for not much over minimum wage.

>>25305989Used to do gay for pay, worst part was coming down from the drugs desu
>>25305989worked for civil service and went in the sewer a lot. smelled like shit when I got off and had to use special soap to get the smell out of my skin, worked like half the time. on hot days the smell was damn near ubearable. I once found what I thought was a dead baby at first, boss picked it up>shit covered cabbage patch kidI still dont know how stuff like that got down there.
>>25306127>I still dont know how stuff like that got down thereEvangelical fetishes.

>>25305989Worked in a factory that made pretty much all of the plastic trim for car interiors. We'd get them fresh out of the press at retardedly high heat, and the only gloves we were allowed to wear were thin cotton white gloves, because the plastic was so hot that normal gloves could leave impressions in the plastic. By the end of my first shift, my hands were blistered from heat. By the end of my second week, my hands felt no heat at all basically, and are oven mitts now. This was two decades ago, and still I have trouble feeling heat in my hands. Gotta use the back of my hand if I need to make sure something isn't too hot. Also got paid minimum wage, which back then was I believe either $5.15 or $5.25 an hour. Shit sucked.
Mud logger on oil rigs. Day consisted of collecting mud drenched rock chips from the shakers at consistent intervals. Coveralls would get soaked in drilling mud by the end of a 12 hour tour. Oil based drilling mud was worse than the water based mud, but barely. The water based kids usually used a lot of salts that would fuck the skin. Had to do magnet catching a few times. Basically put a huge magnet in the possum belly and collect metal cuttings and fragments that passed through. I’d scrape it off the magnet, clean it with Safety-Kleen, then weigh and report. The process of hauling a heavy metal and mud logged magnet up out of the possum belly and doing the rest always resulted in mess and cuts. This is on top of the gas trap I had to maintain in the possum belly too. Worst part is we were living onsite in our own trailers and my company never gave me more than a day off after a couple months of constant rig to rig work. It was just filth to filth and the cold showers never got the OBM out of the pores properly. Rigs with shakers for solids were always a little better than straight outflow into ponds, though shakers could fling OBM into the face more easily.

>>25305989As my very first job out of uni when I was still very young I worked admin in a luxury hotel chain. >Anon I'll show you the archives, you need to help sort the mess a little bit >Archives were a stacks of damp paper covered in rat poop I quit before my trial period was over and vowed never to work with anything that has to do with hospitality if I can at all help it. Now I do pretty much the same for a private equity group
>>25306129Oh they certainly are, doesn't mean I want to smell it. We mostly made it out of fucked chicken frames that had been at the back of the fridge all week. Often threw in rotten liver, game meat and other offal. It smelt horrendous.
>>25306067my nigger in christ, you just use the toilet brush to break it down, and if it's one of those heroin come-down mega shits, you just need a wire hanger to mash it downt. janny
>>25305989The hours are shit, and straining your body sucks, but at least I never brought work home with me and I always felt like I accomplished something real every day.
>>25305989Doing oil changes underneath cars in winter that came in for appointments. The oil was hot, the car would be dripping salty, gritty snow, and being an appointment it would be in the shop 5 mins after the customer arrived so none of the gunk in the wheel wells had time to fall off.
>>25306139>Toilet brushDoesn't work for real fiberious turds, you'll only make a fucking mess and shit will be stuck to that brush if the guy who took it didn't already try.
Well no wonder everyone wants to be a salesman
>>25306010Yeah shit like that is a young man's game.I was a manual laborer for an industrial services contractor.We mostly cleaned up chemical spills.
>>25306142Do you not have a stainless steel potato masher on your cart? I thought that was standard procedure for turd hewing.

>>25306109In absolute seriousness, I'll fucking kill myself if my mind starts to go.I'd rather make it quick while im still me than be trapped inside my own failing mind.Fuck that.
>>25306036i did this for 4 years, commercial and residential. it was my first real job out of highschool. i quit after a dumbass pulled me off a 10' ladder towards him on his own 10' ladder by yanking a half inch plate glass unit that was installed over a doorway, causing him to break his spine and me to need around 30 stitches across both forearms. i eventually moved into salesi do miss cutting sheet glass, though. i actually enjoyed that a lot
>>25306143>>25305989We got rid of immigrants so we can do dirty jobs
Did construction for almost 2 years, there were times when we were fixing water leakage which was usually muddy and miserable. We also demolished some old buildings and that was dirty as fuck. Sometimes we worked during rain and during snow.
>>25306145Nah got a plunger or two.They keep breaking cause unclogging sinks and shitters is what i mostly do in my shift.We got plummer's but they are lazy and won't do shit for anyone outside their clique, unless it's absolutely necessary for their expertise to be used.One got peeved about getting a "toilet job" and told the clerk handing them out that she needs to stop sending them to him.
I have never worked a single day in my life (I'm 37) and I sure don't plan on working anytime soon.
>>25306152I'm starting to think being in a motorcycle gang is the only way out
>>25306152i like working, i just hate doing the same thing foreverif i could work in 2 year intervals with 6 months off in between life would be fucking perfect
>>25306153>>25306154In France there is no point in working. Right now just being a neet I get about 1000€/month which is ok to live with. Imagine now I find a job, I'd lose these 1000€ for 1400€. My net gain for working 35h/w would just be 400€ a month. It isn't worth it, I'm better on 1000€ and do whatever I want of my time.
>>25306119>Got to see some truly fucked shit.. one that stuck out was some african girl who had contracted some parasite and it resulted in her urine being off white.. it smelt like an old wet bandaid.Funny, that would have been super interesting for the team treating her.
>>25305989I did machining on cnc lathe. worst part was when indian retards at cnc center machines fucked up the first phase and I had to deal with constant jury rigging.
>>25305989Shilling on 4chan
>>25305989When i was an apprentice plumber, i remember sitting at the bottom of an industrial grease trap in a mental asylum for 3 days straight during a 43 degree celsius heatwave in our bushfire season. Day one was just emptying the fucking cunt out with a bucket & a sponge. Next 2 days were spent relining the fucking thing. Covered in cockroaches and fuck knows what else the entire time.Another one would have been crawling through 15m of effluent, blocked up shit, and grease on my stomach whilst wearing a sperm suit. Barely enough room to even turn my head to the other side. Fuck that was some awful work.
>>25305989I worked at a glass recycling plant briefly through a shady temp agency, it was hell. Staring at a conveyor of broken glass pieces looking for pieces of non glass debris for hours. Outdoor temps in winter. Whole place smells like shit and aftershave because people throw those bottles in the bin even though you aren't supposed to. Only hardcore parolees and sex offenders working there. Dyke manager constantly trying to run over you in a massive loader.
>>25306028I always pitied the ones who had to go and stir the pit toilets way in the backcountry sites. Ran into one near the bottom of the Grand Canyon in the off season with snow and ice trying to get back to the rim after poo pit service, what hell.
>>25305989I worked in an industrial laundry, which entailed turning out the uniforms in a big bin with like six other people. Cows blood, pig brains, construction overalls that sort of thing. We also had to turnout uniforms from a medicinal marijuana plant as wellI eventually just quit because the job was shit.
Stevedoring, creosote enriched wooden poles for example. Port workers wore masks but the ship crew only had rags, some didn't even care to wear anything. Without a mask it felt very toxic in the bay like inhaling glue fumes or something.
>>25306155Thank you for the paragraph about nothing
>>25306104I remember being in my (second?) day of steel fixing (I think they call them "rod workers" in the U.S.) and heading into an empty room being told to clear up discarded twisted metal. I did this for about 15 mins until I looked to my left with a "HAZARD: ASBESTOS" sign on the wall indicating people in there should vacate the area. My boss then came to check on me and saw the sign. Neither of us had noticed lol
>>25305989My first job just out of high school - construction - totally unskilled, digging holes, carrying bricks and bags of cement mix, cutting things with a circular saw, etc. For me the worst part was all the noise. A construction site is never quiet, there's always someone drilling, someone hammering, someone shouting, all kinds of people and machines just non-stop revving. I remember I would come home after work and I would still hear it, some strange "phantom construction" as if it was happening right outside my house, even though it was just the wind, the rain or traffic sounds.
>>25306164You're welcome, bro. I have a lot of free time.
>>25306167have things finally calmed down in france?

What the wage you should be getting for manual labor without getting taken advantage of in 2026?
>>25306158>Shilling on 4chanGood thing jeets do that now.
>>25306176$20/hr or move on to something easy.
>>25306178pfffffft ahahaha okay okay you win mr goldstein I should be happy with $20/hr lmao thanks
I worked a horse ranch Kinda dirty but meh. Only thing is the owner and manager forced me to work 90+ hour weeks almost every single week I was there. So in a way it was kinda dirty because I never got to clean my body
I worked at a cemetery with an active crematorium. I will never forget the smell of a burning body.
>>25306181Any hauntings?
>>25306182None that I saw, but my coworkers had stories
>>25305991Freezers arent bad if you are handling inventory. Sorting and stscking cases is hard work and keeps you warm. Standing or sedentary work is pretty cruel.
>>25305989In 1986 I was a dishwasher at a greasy spoon in a small town out of high school. This cute white girl my was a waitress and she was telling me how excited she was to go on a weekend ski trip with some guys she barely knew and lose her virginity. She saw how sad I looked and smiled awkwardly and ended the conversation. As she was walking away the fat greasy portuguese cook swept her up into a five second bear hug and she just stood there until he let her go and she walked away.
>>25306183Now I work as a groundskeeper at a university next-door to the cemetery
>>25305989This reminded me of when I almost got a job helping clean up places that had human viscera due to crime or death. The schedule was not practical for me at the time but it was interesting that they were willing to train someone from 0 previous knowledge.
>>25306186my friend had a job where he picked up dead bodies from hospitals and nursing homes and delivered them to funeral parlors or crematoriums. he was on call 24/7 for five days a week. the job paid well. he averaged 4 or 5 bodies a day. he used a pretty nice, new, non-descript van which he was allowed to take home. he was a former emt and iraq veteran. dead people didnt faze him. and he treated everyone with care and dignity. he was happy doing his thing. but.... the van stunk. he stunk. he didn't realize he smelled like death every day. his wife couln't handle it. she made him quit after a few months
>>25305989>dirty jobdefine dirtydefine jobdoes cleaning up wet works for the bratva in the 1990s USSR/Russia count as a "dirty job"?
Used to work as a janitor. The way people used to treat me, was way worse than scrubbing shit stained toilets.
>>25306189Imaginary jobs don't count. No.
>>25305989Had a surprisingly chilled job as a cleaner in a semi-highrise building, just for the stairs and hallways. No colleagues, no real boss, and more time than I needed for the work.
>>25306188Honestly I have to pick up more trash doing grounds at this university. The students suck. Theyre messy and dumbI quit when My ocd got the best of me and I would sleep on my floor because I was convinced that I had cadaver dust in my hair
>>25306191Nobody asked your sorry ass, Abdul.I did bury a lot of your pathetic ass "brothers"-in-goat-fucking in the first chechen campaign.
I worked pest elimination downtown Chicago and let me tell you, you ain’t seen nothing until you stick a fogger into an oven and a thousand roaches cover you like a blanket. I have no idea how much of that toxin absorbed either and How much you ingest when you eat because we just fog and half the restaurants don’t cover their dishes or utensils like they should. There are rats as big as a cat too. I stepped on one tunneling under my foot while dusting their hole by McDonalds. It lifted my foot right up that how big it was.
