Jobs you couldn't do


101

Recommended Posts

The folk that look after the Queensferry crossing posted this video of folk cleaning the cables. It got me thinking there is no chance I could do that.

What job could you never do?

And did you learn you couldn't do it after you started doing it?

A lawyer who has to defend a paedophile to the best of his ability.

 

Simply could not do it.

A criminal defence lawyers job isn't so much to get someone off but to ensure they receive a fair trial. I wouldn't have any problem doing it.

Appeals on technical grounds might be my red line

Leaving aside a complete lack of talent, ive often thought id despise playing football at any kind of pro/semi pro level, dunno if itd maybe be a bit nicer in other countries. Playing on chopped up pitches in rain, getting crunched in 50-50s or going for headers, your own fans screaming at you for poor touches, opposition fans laughing at you and making donkey noises if you take poor touches, referees giving fouls against you if you so much as brush up against an opponent and they start rolling around on the deck, managers no longer picking you because you're injured or playing poorly...

Can see why some players have talked openly about it harming their mental health.

But on the other side get into the English premier league and it's better than a lottery win, especially if you are 3rd choice goalkeeper.

But it is sad the way those that have been brave enough to talk about their mental health are treated and we wonder why there has never been an openly gay or bi player here.

This man is called Paul Baxendale-Walker.  You can read about him here.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paul_Baxendale-Walker

He was the brain child behind Rangers EBT scheme that saw them liquidated and start again.  After humping the tax man the wiley old lawyer decided to start producing pornographic films.  Ever keen to save a few pennies, he cut down on actors costs by starring in many of these hardcore pornographic films himself.  That there is something I could never do.

 

I don't have a law degree.

Heights I could cope with. However, there are bound to be people who somehow pothole professionally, possibly to rescue other cavers who've got stuck in tunnels so narrow they can barely breathe, and just the thought of it brings on the panic response in me. I think I'd rather just be shot in the head than have to do that.

Also, working in a pub/bar. I fucking hate having to deal with drunken arseholes. Bad enough working in an offie.

I echo the lawyer sentiment. Another I couldnt do is livestock driver/slaughterhouse worker/butcher. 

Slaughterhouse?? No problem. Just hit the cows with a sledgehammer...
