Ok, let's face it, someone has to do the jobs even if the driods do most of the work....

The Rancor-keeper had a pretty shitty job IMO. I'd hate to wake up everyday and have to feed and care for that rancor. I'd have such high blood pressure, and it's probably pretty smelly too.

Are you kidding? The dude LOVED taking care of the rancor. Unless those were tears of joy... :o

Well....being a worker on a trash barque seems to be a bad job.
Alternatively, the trash collectors on the Streetlevel of Coruscant are even more screwed...

Okay, how about Emperor's concubine. That's definitely a government job. Although you could argue that Jabba was the government on Tatooine..

TIE Pilot - expendable.

Droid cleaner. Imagine being a PA to C-3PO..

Planetary Security. Gotta suck to hunt spice smugglers, alien killers, junkies and whatnot.

COMPNOR official, prolly hated by all.

Probably something involving cleaning up/policing the lowest levels of Coruscant, assuming that they even bother to do so.

Break out the Steam Hose!

Anyways, I'd say a sucky job is TIE Fighter pilot. No Shields, everyone who isn't actively trying to kill you doesn't really give a shit whether they accidentally kill you, not to mention having to dodge multi-kilometer capital ships, engine exhausts, weapons fire, etc...

I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro's great stumbling block in his stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen's Counciler or the Ku Klux Klanner, but the white moderate, who is more devoted to "order" than to justice; who constantly says: "I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I cannot agree with your methods of direct action"; who paternalistically believes he can set the timetable for another man's freedom; who lives by a mythical concept of time and who constantly advises the Negro to wait for a "more convenient season."

Maybe, but IMO Vader angers faster, so he would get madder over more "trivial" things :lol:
