There are over 200 careers you can pursue in Kenya, but some of them are so risky that when mentioned, any average Kenyan would shake. A tough career isn’t bad but when the risks involved results to death, it become ideal for the lion-hearted.
Research shows the following are the toughest careers in Kenya
Morgue Attendant
Morgue attendants, though advised not to fear fellow human beings, they sometimes fear even entering their work place-a mortuary. A morgue attendant should be respected because of the trauma he goes through in the cold room. Some of the things he sees cannot be mentioned in the public.
Bar Attendant
Besides working for long hours with little pay, bar owners go through a lot in the hands of drunk men.
As a bar attendant/waitress, you are told that the customer always comes first-anything he does is welcome. If you are a woman of respect, this is not the place to be because you will definitely be fired the next day.
Prison Officer
Prison warders and anyone taking care of prisoners must be respected: these people handle hardcore criminals, soft criminals and people who have become a nuisance to the society. They are subjected to pressure with low pay, of course.
There is no difference between a prisoner and a prison officer because in their entire life, these people share the same environment.
