Top Five Nightmare Jobs!

1. Tech Support- This would have to be the worst job I can think of. People calling you every day and complaining, and then getting angry at you for no apparent reason. I mean, no one ever calls Tech Support to say, "Hey, my computer's running fine and your doing a great job!"

2. U.S. Military Soldier in Iraq-
For risking their life on a daily basis, these people get Less than $2000 dollars a month, with lower ranks starting at $1000. Add that to inadequate body armor, and you've got a nightmare job.

3. Recycling Plant Worker- They sift through garbage to pull out any salvagable recyclables. Easily the most nauseating on this list, they sort through everything from rotting meat to hypodermic needles, all for minimum wage.

4. Hazmat Diver- They swim into clouds of waste, inside nuclear reactors and through toxic spills on America’s coasts and inland waterways. When the Environmental Protection Agency identifies pollutants, it contracts with a hazmat team to clean things up. That means using giant vacuums to suck up a polluted lakebed, hoisting leaking barrels to the surface, or diving into the heart of an oil spill or into a sewer to fix a clog.

5. Being Mike Rowe- Host of Dirty Jobs on the Discovery Channel, this guy has done over 150 dirty jobs, from sewer cleaner to Alligator Farmer. He started the series in honor of his father, who was a pig farmer for most of his life, and tries out jobs that make civilized life for the rest of us possible.
