I could not work as a teacher for children...adults would be okay.  Couldn't be a police officer or in any type of job that required cleaning someone else's dirt or mess.

I would do any job that was within my skill and/or physical and knowledgeable capabilities. Dirty/virus free, you name it, I'd try it. As a very famous man recently said:

I'd have to go with skyscraper window washer.  I see those guys hanging on the scaffolding with a broken cable and I get positively ill.

Great answers. Agree with Mary B - wouldn't want to clean up a crime scene but I hope that person gets paid well and has no trouble sleeping. 

 

Home (or any) childcare. So thankful for all of them. If done right, it's exhausting and valuable work. I was a stay-at-home mom for 2 years. I don't think I ever worked so hard in my life.

I follow this account on Instagram.

So many comments on 'how can I join?'

Apparently this company will be featured on Lifetime TV soon.

It's forgotten work but oh, so important.

Every job mentioned is one that I would not or could not do.  Except police officer.  I would have done that in my younger days with the hope of advancing to homicide detective.  Sounds gory I know but I would have found it extremely interesting, tho sometimes heart breaking.

 

Customer service and waitress would be an absolute no for me.  Customer service would be good if you dealt with understanding people and were actually able to do something to solve their situation.  However, now there are so many complaints, some legitimate and some not, that are unfixable by customer service rep so they get the abuse through no fault of their own.

Anything that has a lot of paperwork or deals with heights as someone else said.
