10 of the dirtiest and most unpleasant jobs in the world

Someone is sitting in the office and looking longingly out the window, dreaming of the workday ending soon. Someone is working in a difficult and hazardous production, and someone has to be on duty at the hospital today. But it is not for nothing that they say that everything is known in comparison. Now we will tell you about the most unpleasant professions, and you will realize that you have the best job in the world compared to them!

10. Sewage truck

b5qhze5zWhether we like it or not, we have to empty our bowels regularly. And that means that someone has to pump out and dispose of the “night gold” (as sewage was jokingly called earlier) from stationary storage facilities just as regularly. A foul-smelling job in the truest sense of the word.

9. Urine collector

bpwmb2ptIf you ever watched Jurassic Park III, you probably cringed a little while watching young Eric collect T-Rex urine. A little because you knew deep down that it was just a movie and therefore completely fictional.

However, urine collecting is a real, albeit very unpleasant, profession, and there are many specializations. For example, orangutan urine collectors place large plastic sheets or attach plastic bags to trees in the hope of collecting adequate samples of the apes' urine to study factors that affect their reproduction. Deer urine collectors, on the other hand, are tasked with selling "Bambi" urine to hunters, who then use the scent to attract other deer.

8. Technician of artificial insemination of farm animals

If you love animals, you could become a veterinarian, a zookeeper, or even a marine animal trainer. The last job that comes to mind is one that requires some kind of “love” with farm animals. Basically, you’ll spend your day collecting semen from bulls or artificially inseminating cows, sheep, goats, etc. And someone even has to artificially inseminate elephants!

Not the most pleasant job in the world, but very necessary for animal husbandry.

7. Vomit Cleaner

qvk3kjbeRoller coasters are among the scariest rides in the world. They are not only breathtaking, but also stomach-churning. And stories of people feeling sick after (and sometimes during) a roller coaster ride are not uncommon.

The question arises: who cleans up all this vomit? The answer is people who do perhaps the most disgusting job in the world. And they don’t get to chill out during work hours. In 2008 alone, a vomit cleaner at the English amusement park Thorpe Park collected approximately 150 liters of the stomach contents of visitors.

6. Medical waste disposal worker

kpw3oj4yHave you ever wondered what happens to medical waste, including used bandages, needles, expired medications, amputated limbs, and human tissue and organs? According to the legislation of most European countries, they must be disposed of properly (e.g. by incineration) to prevent harm to the environment and human health.

In Russia, bio-materials are stored in special landfills or burned in a special furnace - a micro-crematorium. The smell of bio-waste disposal is described as a combination of burning rubber, unpleasant body odor and stinky feet.

5. Forensic entomologist

s54ed3riThere are many options available to those who want to work with dead people (perhaps because they can’t complain about the quality of the work). The obvious choices are coroners and funeral directors. However, one option you might not have thought of is a forensic entomologist, a job that requires a strong stomach and, dare we say it, a love of insects.

Forensic entomologists are scientists who study the life cycles of insects and arthropods found on corpses during investigations. This helps determine how long ago a person died.

4. Crime Scene Cleaner

cmyp3flWe often see detectives and FBI agents on TV shows like CSI: Crime Scene Investigation and Criminal Minds visiting blood-soaked crime scenes to solve murders. But what we rarely see is what happens to the crime scenes afterward.

It's unlikely that most viewers are wondering who cleans up crime scenes. If you are, the answer is crime scene cleaners. Their horrific and sickening job involves removing blood, body fluids, and other potentially infectious materials, usually from the sites of violent crimes. These professionals also clean up after accidents, suicides, and the deaths of lonely people whose passing is known to others by the foul smell of decomposition wafting from their apartment.

3. Deodorant tester

l5a0yjhmWho do you think determines how effective a deodorant is at combating body odor? Only the human nose can do this difficult and, dare we say it, smelly job. Deodorant testers have to sniff the armpits of volunteers - this is an important part of the quality control procedure for deodorants. And so on day after day.

2. Animal Carcasses Cleaners

yzzjiiunHumanity's technical progress comes at a high cost to our smaller brothers. It is unlikely that anyone has calculated how many animals are hit by cars or other vehicles every day.

However, their corpses are not left lying on the road, they are quickly picked up. In Russia, this is done either by organizations specializing in the removal of corpses of dead animals, or by employees of a contractor service responsible for the maintenance of a specific section of the road. And in other countries, there is such a profession as a road cleaner from the corpses of hit animals.

In some American states (such as Pennsylvania, Idaho, and Montana), people are allowed to eat meat from roadkill animals such as deer and elk. There are even cookbooks with recipes for how to properly prepare meat from animals found on the road or side of the road.

1. Drain cleaners

biamzcdzNot only is it one of the nastiest, dirtiest and most unpleasant jobs in the world, it is also one of the most dangerous. More than 100 sewer workers die each year in India from accidents, suffocation or exposure to toxic gases. Unions say this is because workers are not given any safety equipment to do their jobs.

Sewer cleaners have to wade chest-deep into drains filled with human excrement (and sometimes dead dogs and rats) and use metal scrapers, brooms and even their bare hands to clear drains and sanitary lines. All for a measly £3.50 a day!
