Default Re: Most degrading jobs

Dunno about the most degrading, lets just say "not a job most would want".


I worked for Barry Bros for a number of years, now that entailed repairing and servicing all the equipment involved in the s*&t sucking industry.


Part of my job entailed operating BIG mobile pumps to pump out the treatment ponds for repairs and spent many a luxurious and enjoyable day at places like Logan treatment plant where you could tell when a raid had happened by the amount of "baggies" that came floating through the system and caught up in the filters. Lots of people couldn't understand how I could do the job working on the equipment but knowing at the end of a 80hr week at $78 an hour plus penalty rates my family was wanting for zero makes this type of work acceptable.


Stay safe
