No not Mike Rowe! What's the Dirtiest Job U ever had? Personally! Roughneck. Was the Motorman on a Drilling Rig:--|. Sure was a Lot more Fun Playing in the Mud when I was Kid. Oil Based Mud and 18,000 + Feet of Drill Pipe= Dirty Job:--|

By far the dirtiest job I've had was as a young teenager I worked for a laundry delivery company at the oceanfront of Va. Beach. This company would pick up and deliver sheets, towels, wash cloths, etc.. for the tourists. My job was to open the bundles and sort the items! A pile of sheets, a pile of towels, pillow cases and so forth.
It is disgusting what you find in tourists bed sheets! At that time the only people with rubber gloves were surgeons! Yuck!:--|

worked for a demolition company for about a week, gutting a building before it was about to be blown up, you would be surprised how hard re-bar is to remove from concrete.

I got you all beat...I personally changed my sons diaper when he was a baby...Don't tell me babys don't stink...LOL...I do agree thats working a headboat is bad...between the drunks and tourons puking and the bait getting ripe, a 4 hour trip took a long time to clean up...not to mention when the head got clogged...

Plumbing. My much older brother would take his son and me out on the nastiest plumbing missions. He wanted to show us what people do for a living that don't get an education. Snaking sewers is really not a lot of fun but the worst one was actually in my brothers house. I was renting the basement apartment and they were down in SC buying a farm and the sewage ejection pump went out. Oh boy let me tell you that was a DIRTY job.

I worked at a carwash to pay for college. Not a pay a buck, do it yourself. It was a full service conveyor fed highspeed wash. We would wash over 500 cars a day, then every month, we would have to clean "the pit". 1,500 cars came in dirty, left clean, all that dirt went somewhere, and we had to clean it out!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
