anything that makes my hands dirty. i hate being dirty...

anything that involves being wet when its cold
anything that involves serious exertion when its hot
anything that involves crawling around in or with spiders

seriously, i look like the biggest sissy right now.

i have "cleaned" port-o-johns with an entrenching tool, a bucket, and diesel fuel. Not a job I wish to do again.

Didn't really like hadling burned up corpses so i guess firefighter is out too.

Oh recruiting sucks a lot.

As for the STD person that's what my mom does...she doesn't mind it, they pay her a crap load to look at peoples nasty's all day.

As for me though I never want to work in the food industry agian. No working with old people either. Never want to work as a hotel room service person , especially a cheap hotel. Also never agian will I work for someone who offers me a mechanics job in a shop then end up working for less then minimal wage pulling weeds and washing his truck twice every day. Will never work for a sales call place. But I think that's it, all the other jobs listed I think I could handle

Being in the trucking profession I have covered these with my last couple jobs. My current job occasionally has me chaining up the truck I drive to make it over Donner Pass.

Before that I worked with a small paving crew for 4 years. Nothing like trying to shovel asphalt on a 100+ degree day standing on 250-300 degree asphalt. I actually melted the glue in the soles of a pair of cheap boots the first few days I worked there. I finally realized why my foot felt like it was on fire when i noticed some of the asphalt got in between my sock and the sole of my boot.

As far as spiders and bugs and crawling around in nasty spots, I delivered propane for awhile and some of the places you have to get to in order to re-light a pilot light are just plain nasty.
