History’s worst jobs

You’ll never complain about work again after this trawl through the worst jobs in history. It includes ‘Groom of the Stool’, a position that has nothing to do with wooden seating
Want to be a cool knight in shining armour? Wearing all that bling makes you a guaranteed princess magnet. Here's an opportunity to get started in the career of a lifetime (which may be short if combat is encountered).
