Today, I needed to job shadow someone for my winter break career project. Not finding someone to take me along to their job, my mom suggested shadowing my dad. Not wanting to hurt his feelings, I went with him. All day I sat and helped him test human poop samples for parasites. Some was diarrhea. FML

You sound lazy. Now you know what to look forward to next time you don't hustle.

I created this account to tell you to stop whining! Parasite analysis is funky, I do it for animal feces. It's clean work if you wear gloves, odorless if you use a fume hood, and you get to see pretty darn cool stuff under the microscope. I bet he gets the fecal samples in clean little bottles anyway, no contact unless you smear the samples on your face on purpose. Other people working in healthcare have it much, much worse. I can't believe you are disgusted with your father's career, which is interesting and probably earns your family a decent amount of money.

your dad has a real "shitty" job lol

You're an awesome daughter. :) congrats on not being rude and spending quality time with him. I am sure it meant a lot to him that you showed at least some interest in his work. :)

Agreed FYDL he has to do a crappy job (no pun intended) to keep you fed and have a roof over your head. Get over it
