What are some jobs that you would never do?
After watching "Up in the Air," a friend recently said that she could never do the job of George Clooney's character - basically, a corporate hatchet man who fired people for a living - especially in this economy. What are some jobs that, for whatever reason, you would never do?
I could never have a job that required me to scale tall buildings or something similar. I'm afraid of heights!
Do any job that does not require independent action or thought. Would NEVER be a waitstaff, greeter, and/or in job which requires me to be in an extreme subordinate position. Or any job paying less than $60,000.00 per annum!
Also, would NEVER work for the Post Office- would rather pluck my eyebrows out! Not work as a CLERK, SECRETARY, or ANYONE'S ASSISTANT-NO WAY! I am NOT a servile type.
I had a job as a typist and I DETESTED it and got promoted out of it. I am BEST in jobs where I am in charge and/or can work independently with little or no supervision. Do not like any type of routine and mindless, automaton jobs of any kind.

According to CNBC, it's sales jobs and technology jobs. Do you agree, disagree, have any others to add? I know there are some hardcore job hunters here that would love to get some ideas. I have some hubs on good jobs in management consulting and sales if that helps anyone.
