Hairdresser,  where you had to constantly talk small talk, and ask people how are you, weather, blah blah.

And be in very close personal contact.
The weather guy on the news. Imagine it, constantly talking about the weather!  :shock:
I second High School Teacher as the worst job for me.  Followed by High School Nurse,  which I was for two years.  AAAAIIIIIIIIIEEEEEEE!

Peace
What would be the worst job (for an Aspie) you could think of having?

Politician. All that lying...  :evil:
Telemarketer. I hate them with a passion because they're annoying, so I put that job on my worst list. I don't mind working where people call me, but I hate lying on the phone to people.

Worst job for an Aspie: how about taxi driver? They are probably some of the most gossipy people on the planet, and I don't know many Aspies that gossip


Have you seen what Jerry Newport has to say about taxi-driving?

Worst job could be working for someone who is a terrorist or criminal and you find out.

Like Arthur Anderson?

Old joke: George W Bush said to Colin Powell: "I've got some good news and some bad news. The good news is: Saddam Hussein has agreed to let us inspect his weapons. The bad news is: he wants Arthur Anderson to inspect them!" :lol:

That work could have it's advantages... Just think about it; you would be able to get some nuclear waste for yourself whenever you wanted to, for your own evil purposes. :twisted: (for example, you could laugh maniacally while slipping a bit into people's food)

Seriously, however, it would be far easier to list what you could find acceptable to work with than not.


OOOOOHHHHHH, the possibilities and the fantasies are bounding thru my mind.  "Revenge is a dish best served radioactive!!!" :twisted:

I'm sure Kahless the Unforgettable, wouldn't be upset if I adapted his quote to the moment. :razz:   Klingons do appreciate a good revenge sentiment! :twisted:

Peace

Disposal of nuclear waste would be the worst job in the world.  Some of this waste has a half-life of ten thousand years or more.

Nuclear waste = eww and nasty
