    Anything related to plumbing or sewage.

    I already don’t like dealing with other people’s shit, I’d hate it if I had to do it literally.

    Debt collection.

    Or anything related. I filled a gap between careers doing tech support for a local (Canadian) software company that made a database for collectors (primarily in the USA). Never again, the industry or ancillary to it.

      I once took a job where we essentially repossessed trap houses from the inhabitants - even if they had once been legal tenants. I soon started feeling much better when neighbours cheered us on and brought cups of tea. I later discovered my boss was notorious in the industry for going after scum rather than debtors. That job might have been the closest I’ve ever got to public service. But as for everything else you say, I couldn’t agree more. Debt collection against individuals is a disgusting, exploitative and inherently corrupt business.

      I worked with a debt collection agency from an IT perspective and dealt with what I believe to be the same company. It is an industry that I never want to support again if I can avoid it. I met some good people but it’s just an unhealthy work environment overall.

    Anything to do with health insurance in the USA. I don’t want blood on my hands through denying people necessary medical care.

    Arms Dealer. Anything to do with Wall Street. Law Enforcement and Incarceration. Human Trafficking. Anything dealing with the Military. Religion/Cult jobs. Scam artist. Lobbyist. Probably a few more I can’t think of at the moment.

    There are lots of jobs you couldn’t make me do even with a gun to my head, let alone a paycheck.

    Beekeeping. I appreciate and respect the little guys, but I can’t overcome the panic when a loud buzzy thing with a knife on its ass comes near me.

      Australian native bees can’t sting, do a great job of pollinating, and make a little honey on the side. They’re very curious from experience with a swarm making a home on my water meter box, but not very scary.
