As I have said in my previous discussion it's nice to find a job that's very much closer to your passion, which you really love. As there is a saying "find the job you love instead of learning to love the job you already have. There are a lot of job opportunity posted in newspapers and internet ads. You an choose from variety of categories, and most people due to desperation end up choosing job that is available than the job really love to do. If you are going to choose among jobs that you don't really like, what is the kind of job would you never ever do? Personally I wouldn't d job that would require me to do things illegal in law of my country.

Being a criminal is generally not worth it (the average earnings are much worse than you'd think) but if I were pushed to it I'd probably rather do that than jobs in formal education including university level and especially day care of children, the disabled and elderly.
I respect these jobs and the people that do them well, but I am not selfless enough for such work by any stretch of the imagination. Of course I could do the jobs badly, neglecting and/or abusing my charges and thus making an easy buck, but I'd rather castrate myself. With a toothpick.

There are actually loads of jobs I wouldn't want to do such as working in a fast food restaurant, teaching in a bad school, traffic warden, maintaining sewer systems, working in an abattoir etc. There are also many jobs that I would be totally unable to do such as a brain surgeon, nuclear scientist, mathmetician etc. In an ideal world I would love to be an actor, sportsman, or in a famous band ... if only! :-P

Illegal jobs would top my list. Same would go for anything in the "adult Film" category. After that, any job I could find that's honest, in these difficult economic times I'd try.

I would never be the person who has to climb and maintain those extremely high radio towers and other things like that. I saw a video on You Tube about that a little while ago, and I almost got sick just watching it, so I know there is no way I could do a job where I actually had to climb a structure like that.

If I am given a choice to choose a job which I never want to do,I think would be a office-based job which requires me to sit there for the whole day and do repetitive things. This may sounds very difficult to understand as most of the jobs are repetitive stuffs. Well,I like to do job which can walk a bit rather than just sit there. Anyways,I love my job now,because I can walk around,at the same time,I can use my knowledge to get my jobs done.

Obviously, illegal jobs are really a no-no. But in terms of the "legal jobs", I think the thing I would least likely do is caregiving or being a nurse. The main reason is I am not a good care taker... I'm not good with dealing at people especially those who need special care. I'm too afraid also of seeing what nurses see... like blood, open human body... you know... like seeing someone's heart beat in the operating room... it really scares me... though my work right now is medical related...
There are really people who are forced to do jobs they never wanted because of the different situations... But I think as long as we do legal things and don't hurt anyone or make harm, our work is fine.
