Worst character jobs: what are some jobs characters have had that you disliked or would hate to do?
Well, I am certainly not one that wants to work with dead people, so no morgue for me like in White trash zombie.
Or when they in Heartstrikers hunt weird magically transformed things and other magical creatures, and it often ends messy. So just no messy jobs for me
In Race the sands by Sarah Beth Durst the main character's "job" is to race this magical creature that just as well could eat her, and in the race death is a big possibility. So, yeah no thank you
In Ravens mark by Ed McDonald the main character guides people into a wasteland that is beyond deadly. There are SO many things that can go wrong there. All from simple mirage ghosts that kill you to anything turning deadly and eating you.
Most jobs are then ones I would hate to do, cos either they are deadly, or I am just a not one of icky things.
NEXT WEEK: 10/27/2020 Halloween/Spooky How do you like to be scared? Horror or thriller?
I agree

DeleteYIKES! I don't think I could work in a morgue either. That would truly make me nervous. As a kid I used to love horror movies, but now definitely not. I like suspense and thrillers these days. Hope you are doing well. Hugs, RO
ReplyDeleteI never liked horror movies, so no blood, and gore for me
DeleteI think most jobs in UF are ones I wouldn't want. They're often grueling and thankless.
ReplyDeleteKaren @ For What It's Worth
So true, UF worlds are never worlds I want to live in either
DeleteI'm with you, no morgue work for me, no thank you!
ReplyDeleteI could never, no way
DeleteNo definitely not in a morgue but aren't we lucky people do these jobs.
ReplyDeleteSo lucky. Some people are not as scared as I
DeleteOne thing I've learned from reading fantasy is that most sorcerer jobs are pretty dangerous and crappy, lol.
ReplyDelete~Mogsy @ BiblioSanctum
Oh yes, fantasy jobs are scary
DeleteThose jobs would all suck :)
ReplyDeleteOh yes
DeleteCleaning up murder scenes wouldn't be my cup of tea. Just read a historical mystery where that's the main character's job: The Business of Blood by Kerrigan Bryne.
ReplyDeleteOh yes, no thank you to that. It would be horrific and sad
DeleteNope, no morgues or gross stuff. :)
ReplyDeleteI could not handle it
DeleteHaha, I'd rather deal with monsters than dead people...I think.
ReplyDeleteDang I am bummed I forgot to post for this week. LOLL But there are so many!
ReplyDeleteYes... those don't sound that great. You know what I thought of after this post - Mops from Janitors of the Post-Apocalypse Series. That would SUCK!!
