Man Says "Thanks But No Thanks" To Thankless Task

Of the many occupations I don't think I'd be very good at, lifeguarding ranks pretty near the top. For one thing, with my complexion, I'd almost certainly die of sun-poisoning within hours of starting work. Even quicker if I worked at an outdoor pool. Also, it looks like one of the most boring jobs in the world. You just stand around and watch other people have fun. I have the same complaint about dance clubs, but at least at a club you can steal other people's drinks while they're not looking. And what if you're having an off-day? I screw up drawings all the time. You can't do that when you're a lifeguard. You can't just crumple up a corpse and throw it into the recycling bin. It needs to be sorted. Some of those organs are still good.
