Dirty Jobs Recap: Sludge Cleaner

Surfboard Shaper. This one is a really tough call. I mean Mike gets dirty from all those shavings, but they are so clean - is it really dirty? I guess the fumes from applying the polyester resin can count as dirt - did you see those shoes on the floor? But it was a close call.

Honey Harvester. Another close call here. I mean really. Bees aren't an easy job by any means, and honey is sticky, but dirty? If it wasn't gooey, it wouldn't even be close.

That may push it over the line, but since Mike didn't really get in the honey, I'm not sure it qualifies. The potential of being stung is a bad one, but I don't know if it qualifies as dirty either. Very iffy thus far.

Sludge Recycler. There is, however, no question on this one. When those buses pull in and get washed off they look clean. But when you look underneath them into the sludge box, there is no doubt in anyone's mind that this is one dirty job.

It is so bad that it rivals the septic tank technician job from the Worm Dung Farmer episode. In fact, it's pretty similar, what with the hose that sucks up the sludge and all. At least they have those big bus washing brushes that can be used to wash off with (I don't think you're really supposed to use them like that though).
