And You Thought YOUR Job Was Bad!!!.....


Ok.

Those with weak stomachs, just go ahead and SKIP this blogpost.

(Heck, I almost skipped it myself).

But when I saw this article about some actual GROSS jobs...

Well...

you know ME.

I just HAD to share them with YOU.

So here is the article, of course with MY COMMENTS written in bold italics:



BAD SCIENCE JOBS

* "Anal-wart researcher" (visual inspection being the only way to
detect anal cancer from the human papillomavirus) heads Popular
Science magazine's second annual November list, in 2004, of the
worst jobs in science.


The "worst job in science"..an anal wart researcher.

Wonder what they get paid?

Wonder if their job is a pain in the a--?

Wonder if they get demoted, what would be a worse job to be demoted TO?




However, "worm parasitologist" can be just
as challenging, especially for anyone studying the Dracunculus
medinensis (which can settle in humans to a length of three feet
and then must be removed carefully after its thousands of offspring
burst through the skin).

Why do I feel a sudden urge to go fishing?

Why is my stomach suddenly feeling, umm.."active"???

They didn't just say "thousands of offspring burst through

the skin", DID they???



Other contenders: "tampon squeezer" for
the study of vaginal infections;


(I think I just lost a few MEN Followers

with THIS one!) Let's just move on,

shall we?





a Lyme-disease "tick attractor"
(who must sing, to keep bears away, while trolling in the woods);
and "monitors" at warm-climate landfills (where garbage has been
reduced to steamy, liquid condensates). [Popular Science,
November 2004]

Why doees my skin feel creepy-crawley right now?
************************************************************************************

All together now...let's say: EEEE-ewwwww!!!

So, NOW....

you aren't going to complain about YOUR job today, ARE you????

Consider that an early Christmas present from me to you. Because I'm nice like that.

You're welcome...
