Are you a punch-clock villian? Describe your evil job.

So we all know capitalism sometimes makes us do things we aren't proud of in order to support ourselves and our families. So what's the most evil job you ever had, and are you still doing it? I'll go first. I'm a civil defense attorney, and I've defended some not-so-nice people. Not going into details, except to say I've helped people avoid paying for some pretty horrendous things that they've done. I tell myself it's ok because I spent the first 5 years of my career doing public interest work for a pittance. I'm trying to get out of litigation altogether because while the money is ok, the grind and stress are getting to be too much.
