I wonder what would happen if Forbes released a list of the bottom five worst professions in the ME universe...

Maybe it'd go something like this:

5.  Vorcha enlistee in Blood Back:  As the cannon fodder of the scrapiest merc gang in the galaxy, the brutes can expect to be spammed relentlessly at better-armed intergalactic super-agents and shot in the head by their Korgan bosses just to prove a point.  All in all, not very appealing.

4.  "Duct Rat":  Leading causes of death include "slashed up by fan blades" and dumped into "protein vats."  No thanks.

3.  Collector test subject:  I bet they'd use probes on you...

2.  Red Sand wh0re:  What it says.

1.  Cerberus Operative:  Sent into the dodgiest situations imaginable, put to work in places where "3 days without a workplace death" is seen as something to brag about, and routinely deemed expendable.  Leather seats or no leather seats, this has got to be one of the worst gigs going.

Can't argue with those, but what is a Red Sand ****? And what does Red Sand do to you?



Being a Cerberus Operative wouldn't be too bad if your not as incompetent as all of those idiot scientists they hire. I have to clean up their mess way too often.

bartender at a major night club, those places are full of shootouts and listening to the same song over and over and over again would suck.



store owner on the citadel, after awhile everyone would realize that you dont own the only store that happens to be commander shepard's favorite and your business would slow down immensely.



sanitation worker on omega. might as well send me to the 6th circle of Dante's hell.

Being the sole guard in the Normandy's AI core. You spend all that time alone with no one to talk to and then when someone finally comes in they'd rather talk to a geth then you. Plus, you're so far off your nut by spending all that time alone you've started to shout orders like, ''Ten hut!!'' whenever Shep does come in - despite being the only guard in there....



Worst job...ever.

I would have to aggree with the cerberus op, spend all your time runnning around the F***ing galaxy, only to end up getting either yelled at by your boss all the time, or if your really really lucky turned into a giant human reaper larva, and killed by one of your superiors, worst job assignment, ever

Being a newsreporter trying to find dirt on Commander Shepard... he'll punch your lights out. TWICE!



Being not just a member of the Blood Pack, but ANY mercenary group. If you see the Normandy land somewhere, walk the other way!



Commander Shepard. Have to prevent aliens from abducting colonists? No problem! Have to kill waves upon waves upon waves of enemies? No problem! Destroying reapers? Just another Tuesday? Walking out of your Captain's Quarters towards your Galaxy Map only to have your assistant tell you that yet ANOTHER squad member needs your help? Shoot me now.



Commander Shepard's squad member. Sure, he'll solve your problems so that you can focus on the mission at hand, but after that's over with. Shepard can order you to do ANYTHING! You name it, crawling through vents, forced to lead a second squad, forced to form a biotic shield, forced to escort the Normandy's crew, hell, if you're of the opposite sex, Shepard will even try to get in your pants! WORST JOB EVER!

Sorry. It should be "Red sand wh0re." Bioware evidently don't like that word.

And yet, as Chakwas reminds us, Cerberus never produced a red shirt of Pvt. Jenkins's caliber.

I would add mystery-drink-producing Vorcha. The description made me think of the worst possible working environment. (OSHA would not approve)



That or the guy who has to follow the Keepers around with a pooper scooper.

Yeah, Wilson was a sorry excuse for a redshirt.

Presidium Grounds Keeper. Everyday you're forced to answer the same questions, and you can only stand in one spot whenever you happen to be in a bar.

Yeah...one would have to assume that keeping a cap on quick breeding, humanoid maggots would get old in a jiffy..

I dunno though.  The way Gavorn keeps thoughtfully caressing his sniper rifle makes me think he kind of enjoys it.

That has to be a terrible job. Imagine asking the boss for vacation time... :?

The Geth program whose only job is to take a count and see if a consensus has been reached.



Geth headcounter - 5,466,732

Geth headcounter - 5,466,733

Geth headcounter - 5,466,734



Sentry program # 8729 - Commander Shepard is attacking Haestrom! We require enough Geth to run 50 Geth platforms, 3 Geth Primes, several destroyers and one colossus



(several million Geth programs upload to mobile platforms)



Geth headcounter - Did all those guys vote yet? Did they already get counted? Crap! 1. 2. . . .
