I think that maybe the worst job in the US would be to work in a slaughter house. It's definitely one of the most, if not the most dangerous job in the US. First off, many of the workers get paid far less than what they used to years back. They hire a lot of migrant workers that will work for less. Every day, workers are accidently stabbing themselves or another person while trying to keep uo with the assembly line. People lose body parts. Several people have been killed at the slaughter houses by accidents. People getting shredded into pieces and other horrific ways to die.
At some of the meat packing plants, people are told not to report their injuries, as a supervisors job status depends on the amount of injuries at the job. People that try to create unions are scared into not doing so, or they are fired. One person's job involves slitting each cow's throat, which occurs about once every ten seconds at the job. There are places in the slaughter house where blood runs up to your ankles. The smell is virtually unbearable causing a bunch of workers to throw up everyday. The cleaning people at the slaughter house might have the most difficult job, which results in a bunch of deaths because of the horrid conditions. Anyway, that was just a small part of what goes into the life of a slaughter house worker. I don't see how anybody in their right mind would want to work there, but that's just me. I think if people got a tour of a slaughter house, they wouldn't want to eat red meat anymore.
