While in college (19 years ago) I worked for a bicycle helmet manufacturer in Colorado. I made holes in the helmets for straps to go through....BORING! ...but I got a discount on my mountain biking supplies.

I think I will have the trumper of all odd jobs. I used to be involved in Crime Trauma Scene Clean up.

So basically I was Haz certified to clean up Murder scenes & Suicides etc.etc.

I will say the pay was insane.

Pay?

The pay averaged about 75.00 to 125.00 an hour but of course you are not working 40 hour weeks also the pay is probably less now because alot of cheap steam and clean companies came in that did not have certs. and pushed us legitimate people out.

Back in high school (in foreign country), I got a part time summer job at a funeral place. My job was to clean up dead human body (either complete or not complete) and dress them.
