The worst job
We asked several young people, ‘What do you think is the worst job?’ Here are their answers. Do you agree with them?
A This is probably the worst job in the world! I feel sick when I think about it! You’re up so high and there’s air all around you. Then they pull you up and let you go down. Wow – I’m never going to do anything like that!
B The hours are terrible. You have to get up really early when it’s dark and go to bed early. You have to go out when it’s cold and rainy and you get very dirty too. I’m going to get a job indoors.
C Oh – can you imagine? There are spiders and horrible little things all round you, everywhere! Some of them are really dangerous too and you have to feed them and touch them and clean out their boxes! No thank you. I think I’ll work in an office.
D I’m sure the smell is awful. The food stays in the bags for days or even weeks and you have to pick up the bags and carry them. Uggh! Sometimes the bags break and you have to clean up all the mess. I think the people who do this job should earn lots and lots of money.
E I like watching plays and films but you’ll never see me on a stage. It’s too frightening and I’m sure it’s very hard to learn all the words. Everyone’s looking at you and waiting for you to make a mistake. But I admire people who can do it.
