What are some jobs or types of jobs that you would never want to do?

It’s not uncommon for people to talk about dream jobs, what their dream jobs are, but it’s less common to hear people talk about what kind of job they would never want to do.

What are some jobs or types of jobs that you would never want to do, either because they’d bore you or you have zero interest in doing, or maybe the job itself is one you don’t feel you’d be physically or mentally suited for?

I thought of this after watching a documentary about a General Motors plant that closed, and thinking about what it must be like working on an assembly line, day in, day out, having to keep up with the speed of the line and just being bored from doing the same repetitive task.

When I was young and thinking about jobs, I knew I’d never want to be a nurse or a cop or anything where I might be taken away from my family on nights, weekends or holidays, due to having to work shifts. I knew I’d always want a job with regular “office hours” Monday thru Friday, 9 to 5 or similar.
