Ideal for: aspiring Grooms of the Stool
Job Specification: While civilization made great strides in the invention
of the sewer system, someone has to deal with the rather unpleasant task of
emptying the cesspools. Now would that lucky gentleman be you? Don’t worry:
you’ll get a big pail, and a horse to help you cart it away. Unfortunately,
employee benefits do not include soap or other bathing implements, not that
any scrubbing can remove the stench of human waste.
Drawbacks: You have to spend the whole day knee-deep
in urine and excrement. You’d faint from the stench, except that would mean
falling into the cess pool and swallowing some of the vile stuff. So keep
your wits about you, and pray that you don’t have any open wounds.
Perks: You have job security, as cities get more and more crowded each
day.
