If you don't work IT, retail, or food service what do you do for work?
Sometimes on Lemmy these seem like the only jobs that actually exist, but I'm sure there's a lot of people here with different and unusual lines of work.

When people work with hazardous materials, they hire me to make sure they do it safely or legally. I mostly work in waste handling, soil remediations and laboratories.
It's pretty fun and interesting, but it's been very bad for my enjoyment of homegrown food, swimming outdoors or going downwind of any industrial sites.
Safely OR legally? Shouldn't that be "and"?
Safely XOR Legally
"Either it's safe and it doesn't come up or it isn't and we have ourselves legally covered."
Ah, ideally yes.
Some places skirt by the law and dump it where hazardous waste doesn't belong. This is done legally but is not at all safe.
Thank you for what you do though, it's not glamorous work I'm sure but average person like me appreciates what you do
