"What happens in rugby union? A player takes the ball, moves forward a little and gets tackled. A whole load of players then roll about on the ground. Pheep! The referee gives a penalty." - Simon Barnes

Could be worse... Generally a decent bunch of self-moderating people who just need the occasional harrumph and raised eyebrow to sort out their indiscretions.
On the subject: We were at Alton Towers earlier this year and saw the worst job in existence. At the end of one of the rides seems to be a guy who is paid to stand around waiting for people to be sick just after they get off the ride then clean it up.
Money can't buy happiness... but it can buy bacon which is close enough.

You've brought back some powerful memories there Mags.

My mate here in France had some trouble with his septic tank in his house. He didn't know he had one until it overflowed - apparently half his house was missed out when the village went onto mains sewerage. He tried emptying it himself which included climbing in, up to his neck in merde, and using buckets to stagger fifty yards through the village to deposit the ordure in his garden.
I got the poo man to appear a few weeks later to do a proper job. This involves an enormous vacuum cleaner on a van with a big tank. They stretched and stretched the pipes as far as they would go but still didn't reach the place where the tank's entrance is. They therefore improvised with a spare bit of drainpipe which was lying around....
...and made the seal with their hands....
...which periodically broke and sprayed them with 100 year old poo.
They were there doing that for the best part of four hours.
They earned their euros that day.

When they put sewers and a water treatment plant in Faucon in the Vaucluse, my mates house could not be connected owning to its position, so he retained his fosse septique,. However, he was still billed annually for sewage charges. After a long battle , he did manage to get in rescinded, but every time the water company changed hands, the charge returned and the fight started all over again. He now lives in Ireland, where they don't charge for water at all!

I don't think that that's an actual job Roy Boy.

It is - you work a continental shift pattern with the team of extractors - apparently the job comes with free BUPA and 28 days holiday - must be split up though as you can't have 28 days off in one continuous period!!
