fixing leaks on old toilets especially when there is poo stains all over it and wee all round the rim and on the floor, urgh it burns your nose hairs off sometimes lol
 
Driving is my worst job but have to do plenty of it
 
Replacing syphons on dirty toilets with rusty wing nuts in tight space's so your face is nearly touching the dirty pan.
 
bath panels, shower enclosures, siliconing, servicing boilers that havnt been taken apart for 15yrs and then basicly fall apart in your hands, trying to repair leaks on crusty things. anything to do with gas fires, core drilling off ladders into tough bricks.
 
fault finding and replacing electronic components in a modern boiler!!! working on an open site in freezing/snowy weather!!! working in lofts with wasps nests!!! refitting carpets back that don't now seem to fit!!! draining and refilling primatic cylinders!!!
 
Debt collecting
If it gets to the point where I have to ask for my money then I do not like this, I feel uncomfortable asking for money at the best of times.
If I have done the job and I have given the bill I expect to be paid no ifs or buts, just paid
 
Unblocking toilets when its 1/2" from the rim with chocolate paper mache, anything that a customer has said "its only a two minute job", having to locate something twice because the agreed location "isn't quite right" and old windowsills above a newly hung radiator that have a 1" fall from left to right.
 
drain rodding, no where to wash you hands afterwards and then having to eat your sandwiches.

its best to hold it by one corner, eat most of it and then throw the corner away
