Is an e-mail he sent to his sister. She then sent it to radio station
103.2 on FM dial in Ft. Wayne, Indiana, who was sponsoring a worst job

Hi Sue, Just another note from your bottom-dwelling brother.
Last week I had a bad day at the office. I know you've been feeling down
Lately at work, so I thought I would share my dilemma with you to make
You realize it's not so bad after all. Before I can tell you what
Happened to me, I first must bore you with a few technicalities of my
job.
As you know, my office lies at the bottom of the sea. I wear a Suit to
the office. It's a wetsuit. This time of year the water is Quite cool.
So what we do to keep warm is this: We have a diesel-powered industrial
water heater. This $20,000 piece of equipment sucks the water out of the
sea.
It heats it to a delightful temperature. It then pumps it down to the
diver through a garden hose, which is taped to the air hose. Now This
sounds like a darn good plan, and I've used it several times With no
complaints. What I do, when I get to the bottom and start working, is
Take the hose and stuff it down the back of my wetsuit. This floods My
whole suit with warm water. It's like working in a Jacuzzi.
Everything was going well until all of a sudden, my butt Started to
itch.
So, of course, I scratched it. This only made things worse. Within a few
seconds my butt started to burn. I pulled the Hose out fom my back, but
the damage was done. In agony I realized What had happened.
The hot water machine had sucked up a jellyfish And pumped it into my
suit.
Now, since I don't have any hair on my back, the jellyfish couldn't
stick to it.
However, the crack of my butt was not as fortunate. When I scratched
what I thought was an itch, I was actually Grinding the jellyfish into
the crack of my butt. I informed the dive supervisor of my dilemma over
the communicator.
His instructions were Unclear due to the fact that he, along with five
other divers, were all Laughing histerically.
Needless to say I aborted the dive. I was instructed to make three
agonizing in-water decompression stops totaling thirty-five minutes
before I could reach the surface to begin my chamber dry decompression.
When I arrived at the surface, I was wearing nothing but my brass
helmet. As I climbed out of the water, the medic, with tears of laughter
running down his face, handed me a tube of cream and told me to rub it
on my butt as soon as I got in the chamber. The cream put the Fire out,
but I couldn't poop for two days because my butt was swollen shut.
So, next time you're having a bad day at work, think about how much
worse it would be if you had a jellyfish shoved up your butt.
Now repeat to yourself, "I love my job, I love my job, I love my job".
