    In my younger days, I worked in a hospital laundry. We did all commercial stuff but the hospital stuff was disgusting. The company owner did all the surgical linens. He had to scrape all manner of human by-products off. Then there was the puke. I had to load those smelly blankets into the giant washing machines. Never really got used to the smell!

    I asked a port a potty cleaner that once and he said it wasn't that bad and the pay was excellent.

    Considering my Port-a-Potty aversion issues, I can't think of any.

    The exact nature of this task is unclear, but what we do know is that the worker pictured is quite far up an elephant's bottom, and there's nothing fun about that I think this speaks for itself.  A close second, but still ... it must rank up there in the top 3!!!

    That's awful.  I would think hospital OR and ER cleanup might be disgusting as well. This post was edited by Thriftymaid at July 23, 2017 1:38 PM MDT
