Manny's Blog Day - The 10 Worst Jobs Ever!!

Hello everybody its Friday again another top 10 list.
I came up with this list when I was looking up some job descriptions and encountered these weird and somewhat disturbing job titles. I do have a warning, there is some mature content within the list so careful when reading. Also after reading this list you might not think you have the worst job ever anymore, unless of course you have one of these jobs in which case im sorry for your suffering. Anyway, here it is friends.

THE 10 WORST JOBS EVER!!!

10.BABY SITTER: I chose this because unless you have an extreme love for kids and you are able to get them to calm down and behave this is worst than war and might kill all hopes of having kids of your own.
9.FLIGHT ATTENDANT: Some of you might say well its not that bad you get to travel, but if you look at it in other prospective you have to deal for hours with rude, mean, and all kinds of weird and creepy people just as well as every other combination of people there are. Its just like baby sitting but while traveling plus you get a lousy salary so its not that great.
8.GARBAGE COLLECTOR: Collecting trash for a living is not one of the best ways to make a living but someone has to do it and there is no shame in that. In some states they make an average 3,000 dollars more a year than your high school teacher but picking up someone else's trash is not something you'll be dying to apply for.
7.GRAVE KEEPER: One of the creepiest jobs is this a grave keeper. Which is  just that being the person who takes care of the graveyard. What could be worst than having to walk around a graveyard at night with only a flashlight to protect yourself? That's just plain scary. 
6.SKY SCRAPER WINDOW CLEANER: For this job you better have some nerves of steel because you'll be cleaning the windows of some of the tallest skyscrapers. In some cases with minimal safety equipment making it that much worst, imagine hanging hundreds of feet off the ground cleaning windows. You better not look down.
5.GUARD AT BUCKINGHAM PALACE: As if being a regular security guard wasn't bad enough being a guard at the Buckingham palace is that much worse, because not only do you have to guard the palace you must not move or talk, you must just stand there and guard unless completely necessary. Oh and did I mentioned you also have to deal with the TOURISTS which will do almost everything to get you to move.
4.EMBALMER: Another creepy job. An embalmer's duty is to prepare the body of a diseased prior to the burial, he/she must clean the body, empty their bowels and bladders, remove all liquids and gases and replace with chemicals and pastes as well as dressing and applying make up on the diseased. Now that's just creepy.
3.PORT A POTTY CLEANER: Given the duty to keep the port a potties clean, this individual is in charge of cleaning and maintaining the blue cubicles. This means sanitizing, emptying the sewage tank, and cleaning after peoples messes. Can you imagine cleaning a port-a-potty that has been tilted. Now that gross my friends. 
2.SEWER CLEANER: Now this employee has the duty to clean the main city sewage lines. This means crawling through manholes cleaning the sewage lines to prevent them from clogging up. If you think this is bad in some countries they have little to no protection leading to hundreds of deaths a year.

What you all have been waiting for, now for the number 1 worst job on my list:
1.ANIMAL MASTURBATOR: As bad as it seems its just as suggested by the tittle, ejaculating animals for a living is by far the worst job in my list these fellows are in charge of just that, masturbating animals for whether scientific research or to grow the population of a species no matter how you look at it, that is just wrong in so many levels, but a job is a job I guess.

Well that's all for now, top 10 worst jobs!!
Hopefully now you feel better about your job and if you have one of these jobs then I feel your pain. See you next Friday with another top 10
If you have any suggestions leave a comment

The Scary and the Supernatural

Ever since I was in middle school I have loved to write research papers. So I figured out I would write about things that intrigue me once in a while and do research. Like today I decided to research something a little bit more scary. The back ground of Supernatural.

I am sure at least one of the people that will read this post know what the show Supernatural is. I always wondered if what went on in the show had some sort of truth or original folklore. So I decided to research some of it. In this TV Show they talk about so many Supernatural things, Angels and Demons as well. I know there much history revolving around those two subjects so I figured that there has to be original folklore to all of the other things that they speak of. I mean, honestly I don't think they came up with all of those things out of the blue.

What I first encountered when I begun my research was that all of the stories that are used in the TV show have some sort of history and the show plainly just elaborates on the existing story behind the actual monsters that they are hunting. Many of the monsters they hunt are part of the folklore of different cultures and countries.

Demons
According to Supernatural: Demons are supernatural beings that were created by Lucifer after he fell from heaven. They are able to walk with humans and possess a human body with no difficulty. They are exorcised by Dean and Sam multiple times and can only be killed with specific weapons(The colt). Demons have rankings and some of them are more powerful than others.
History(AKA:Wikipedia): A demon is a spiritual entity that can be conjured and sometimes possibly controlled. These entities can possess a human body and can only leave after an exorcism. First time demons were mentioned in history was by Plato. They are feared because of the believe that they are able to possess living things.

Djin
According to Supernatural: A monster who can grant your wishes by plainly reading your mind. However, it isn't a good type of wish granting, this creature is evil and grants
History (Not wiki): Djinn are supernatural creatures from Islamic Mythology, and pre-Islamic Arabian Mythology. It is believed that they live in an unseen world or a parallel dimension. They are creatures that own free will and they can be evil, good or neutral. This creature is a creature that can resemble a common known Genie. Djinn are called up by people. However, during my research it was hard to come upon something that said that they grant wishes, just that they are genies.

Reapers
According to Supernatural: A reaper is a spirit who comes to take you away once it is your time to pass away. Once they are there to take you with them there is no way of stopping them unless you make a deal (For example with a crossroad demon). Spirits who refuse to go with the reaper become angry spirits.
History: Most commonly known as Grim Reapers, or Death. Since the 15th century Death has been described as a skeletal figure  carrying a scythe. Death shows up when your time is up and it is believed that he can sometimes cause death before it is your time. During my search I also saw that when people speak of the Grim Reaper, it is referred to it as just one.

Ghosts
Supernatural: Ghosts are unrestful spirits that are either confused or angry at their deaths. Sometimes they don't understand that they are dead. In multiple times, they sometimes re live their deaths, they are caught in a never ending loop of their death. The only way to kill a ghost is to salt their bones and burn them.
History: A spirit of a dead living creature that can appear or manifest themselves to the living. Ghosts are usually described as spirits that attach themselves to certain locations or people. Ghosts aren't just evil, sometimes ghosts can be confused and might not even realize that they have died. However, many times ghosts will become angry and become mischievous and even evil.

I am going to cut off this post here because I can keep going and it would just became an essay. If you guys want me to write more things like these let me know! I actually enjoyed writing this one. I am sure I can take requests and do a little research on things you guys want me to do.

Have a nice weekend guys,
Andy
