This past weekend a couple of the boys and I were sitting around after the football game trying to come up with the worst possible or most tragic career decisions. I don't know why, at the moment, but I thought I'd just share a few with you. Just so you'll know, that I know, this hub has no socially redeeming value whatsoever.

 

Worm Taster

Believe it or not this is a real job. Unbeknowst to me, people really do eat worms. One thing I'm sure of, no gum or tictac is gonna take care of this guy's breath.

Village Idiot

I almost didn't include this one as it's not really a career choice. This job is sort of foisted upon one due to their qualifications. I would like to add here that "somewhere a village is missing an idiot" is one of my favorite expressions.

Dinosaur Wrangler

I have an uncle by marriage that's a dinosaur wrangler. He's 87 and has never had a job. Bad career choice Marvin.

Animal Barber

Oh yes. This is also a real profession. You didn't think Baboons got that way on their own did ya?

Port-A-Potty Inspector

Face it.  If you choose this occupation, you're just gonna catch crap all day.  I know, I know, it's not original.  Just true.

Camel Salesman

First problem: Location, location, location.  Second problem:  No matter how hard you try you never seem to get over the hump.  Sorry, couldn't resist this one.

 

Mortician's Assistant

OK.  For all of you out there that don't like to think about what might be included in a mortician's job discription....imagine what his assistant's job must be like.

Chicken Sexer

I understand why this career is needed, I just don't understand why they don't throw them all together, give it some time and see which ones lay the eggs.  Whenever I hear the term 'chicken sexer' I always get a mental image of a chicken with slicked back hair, a silk shirt unbuttoned to the navel, a hairy chest and a gold chain with a Leo pendant.

Hang-glider Tester

Yes, now you can become a professional hang-glider tester.  Short hours.  Incredible health benefits. Early retirement.  Call 1-800-NOT-GOOD today.  First 50 callers will receive a free psychological evaluation.

Hermit

No matter what happens, it's always your fault, all the time.

Witch

Get out of the house, see the world but....no matter where you go you still got that broom.  Sorry ladies.

Don't let my boys know there are jobs available as worm tasters... they just might think they don't need any more schooling!
