Worst Job You Ever Had

Worst Job You Ever Had

- I was employed for a short while as a live-in bee-keeper. I gave it up because of the No Smoking rule, which just made the bees angry.

- I got a job as a paper boy. But I blew away

- My job as a personal trainer didn't work out

- I quit my job as mowing lawns, because the money just wasn't cutting it

- I had a job as a nude model, but I hated the uniform

- I worked for a while burying the dead at the local cemetery, but I just didn't dig it

- I gave up my job as a lumberjack because I slaughtered all my colleagues with a chainsaw and disposed of their bodies through the wood-chipper in a delightful shower of red

No, wait. That's not a joke.

I heard you had a job as a human cannonball, but got fired.

No, that's Fargo.

I lost my job carrying bags at the railway station, but it's OK, they hired me again. I became a reporter.

This is all very Milton Jones, isn't it?

Shirley it's removing lobsters from Jane Mansfield's bum?

I wanted to work as a miner, but I'm 42.

I used to work in the local colliery, but I found it was the pits.

Disillusioned, I gave up working for a few years and became a heroin addict. That was a real shot in the arm.

Hey Scary, I heard you started your career at the BBC in the Met Office forecast department, holding up the charts for Michael Fish. In those days you were always under the weather.

I tried out as an apprentice in a door factory, fitting the brassware. It was a job which I found I just couldn't handle.

Have you ever been sacked for sleeping on the job? I have. It was a good job too; chief taster at the Horlicks factory.

I got an award for my work as a farmer. It was for being outstanding in my field.

When I was a student, I got a summer job as a lift attendant. It had it's ups and downs.

Colonoscopy is much the same as any other career. You start at the bottom and work your way up.

I finally landed my dream job as manager of a coconut oil plantation. I had to grease a few palms though.

I went after a contract to do some local roofing work for Network Rail, but they told me it was a bit above my station.

Time for TRT to have a lie down, methinks.

I was once a hairdresser. I didn't quite make the cut.

I went to the dentist yesterday. He told me that during the night a duck had broken in and made a nest on his instrument tray. Needless to say it left me a little down in the mouth.

When I desperately needed a job a few years ago, a friend gave me some work attaching ropes to maritime flotation devices. It was a lifeline.

I was once a spy. Decided to give something else a shot.

Of course the worst jobs are those where you get no thanks, no recognition, no credit at all... Like writing Keith Chegwin's jokes.
