Worst Jobs in the World

Think you have the worst job in the world? Think again. If you're not having to taste test worms, dig graves, or clean dig things from sewers, well, then you probably don't even come close. This site not only lists current awful jobs submitted by visitors, but all-time historic worst jobs such as fishmonger, rodent catcher, and flatulence analyzer. If you always keep in mind that things could go from bad to worse in an instant, maybe you'll actually be grateful for that crabby boss that keeps getting on you for pilfering paperclips. Okay, probably not, but it was worth a shot.

The Secret of Invisibility


"Walk UNSEEN among people or CROWDS," promises this website, "The secret of invisibility... REVEALED." This is not a toy or a magic trick, boasts the advertisenment, nor is it an illusion or a ninja technique. You (yes, you!) really can walk sight unseen into your neighborhood bank vault, through the girl's locker room, or out the back door at your family reunion. This is the secret of the gods! And to access this 1,000 year old secret, all you have to do is... spend $30 on publisher Bill W. Williams' book. But don't worry - you'll make back the $30 in no time, plus much, much more, robbing the collection plate at church or selling videos to "Girls Gone Wild!"

Plaid Stallions

If you're into shag carpeting, Stretch Armstrong, and polyester business suits but don't have a time machine to take you back to the 1970's, Brian Heiler's Plaid Stallions website is the next best thing. Combining old Sears Wish Book catalog pages with witty commentary, the website easily achieves its slogan - "mocking the seventies a catalog page at a time." A huge repository of 70's catalog pages in its own right, PS manages to both make fun of the era and pay homage to it via the author's memories in the form of a daily blog. The 1970's haven't been this fun since, well... the 1970's. Grab some Freakies cereal and give PS a view!
