Not for love or money

[Brandane]

Pilot

That was what I always wanted to do when I was a very young boy, but then reality set in with my lack of academical abilities! Looking back, I probably wouldn't have liked it. All that training, constantly being assessed, and suffering jet lag all the time can't be fun. And in any case, my atrial fibrillation would have put an end to my flying career even quicker than it did to my Police one.

Most of them, it seems

Anything involving being nice to arrogant rich twits.

IFF I'd had that kind of job I wouldn't have lasted 10 minutes before I insulted or assaulted one!

 

[Sharky]

Deliveroo rider. Feck that, risking life and limb to deliver takeout food to people too feckin lazy to get it themselves.

Me neither, its too dangerous weaving in between pedestrians on the pavements.

Anything that involves going on the stage. Speaking in front of a crowd really scares me. Don't mind heights at all, used to rock-climbing. Was a paratrooper forty years ago.

Strange......I used to give talks/lectures to audiences of over a thousand and really enjoyed it.

Traffic Warden.

Do they still exist?

A fragrance developer, the job just stinks

Pulling Lobsters out of Jayne Mansfields bum....

I'm the same: In a group of strangers or acquaintances I will barely say anything, but if I can prepare I can give talks and run storytelling evenings, which tends to confuse people.

Difference between presenting material you are knowledgeable and confident in, against small talk with strangers in subjects or situations you aren’t comfortable in.

Any factory job involving a production line.
Even when employed I was a pretty free agent to work as I wanted so long as the end result was ok.

I've worked in sales and quite enjoyed it, but it does depend on how the company operate. As Cycleops said, it's mostly about helping people and making sure they're a happy customer. Poor salespeople often find it frustrating, but it doesn't have to be.
I've done manual, smelly labour, not too bad.
@Accy cyclist I'd empty poop bins all day for £30k and a pension.

The only thing I wouldn't/couldn't do is join the Army or Marines. I think I'd probbaly run away and end up in prison

Anything that involves working outside. It may be bearable for parts of the year but wouldn’t like it in winter.

I will be a sail maker to the end of my days. 😁
