I did retirement home training and used to think it was a sweet job. Then I got in the business and underestimated how demoralizing it was as they give you the easy elders in training while the others make you, or at least me, really think of the fact the job just amounts to an unkarmic freebie.

Gas-filler. There's a couple states in the US where you aren't allowed to pump your own gas, someone else has to do it for you, and you're expected to then tip them.
The job is essentially getting me to pay to be inconvenienced. I'd prefer to pay to let me pump my own gas.
Oregon let's you pump your own gas now, so it's just New Jersey afaik
The first time I crossed the border into Oregon years ago and started pumping my own gas, the attendant came out shouting "Hey! What are you doing?" As someone that had never heard of this law in either state, I was about as confused as you could possibly be, because this obviously seemed like a trick question.
Just reinforces my belief that America is a bunch of weird different countries smashed together under a bastard flag.
Oh, that is absolutely correct. Texas is so different from California, which is so different from New York, which is so different from Florida which is so different than Massachusetts, etc. forever.
California would be the sixth largest economy in the world if it was its own country.
