    mate sent me a link from FARK and told me just to read the first part...
    It sounds like the runaway winner of a contest for Britain’s worst job – sniffing returned sex toys to see if they’ve been used.

    Thats right up there with dog food tester or working in McDonalds. Can you think of anything worse? and surely there is a swab test that would be more effective?

    linky link (May be very slightly NSFW)

    I have never worked in McDonald's but how can you compare that to it? Flipping burgers and ****? That ain't too bad. Decent money. I'd much prefer that to sitting on a phone all day taking abuse from people.

    Guy in here used to work in the methadone clinic near Baggot Street there, watching junkies piss in a cup - he says it was less than ideal.

    I don't really like the word 'mania' being associated (heh...'ass') with any delicate exits (or entrances...whichever way you swing...I don't judge).

    if shops don't let you return knickers there's no way they'd let you return sex toys.

    And even if they did, wouldn't they just use a blacklight or similar to check for eh... Residue ?
