Worst jobs in Science fiction/fantasy?

[Miss Chicken]

The jobs suggested can be filthy, or dangerous, or boring and can be from any book, movie or TV show.

I am going for Beacon-Lighter of Gondor as it most be a truly boring occupation, sitting on top of a mountain for weeks or months on end on the off-chance you might have to light a fire.

Death Star Trash Compactor worker. I mean, think about it. That chamber had a door, so people were supposed to be able to go in and out. So you go in, have all this unsorted waste, God willing already compressed into a cube, and then some eyeball-snake grabs your leg and drowns you in a pool of something repulsive.

And then you get exploded with the rest of the Death Star.

(And on a related note, what's up with all those bottomless pits on Imperial ships and stations with narrow bridges spanning them and no railings?)
