10 ancient jobs that sucked

Not everyone loves or even likes their job. But, before you go and complain, be fortunate that you’re not gainfully employed to perform one of these ancient jobs that sucked.

Ornatrix: More commonly known as a hairdresser, an ornatrix of ancient times had to be more than creative. “In order to provide your mistress with her coal-colored mane, you had to work with a mixture of bile, rotten leeches, and squid ink.”

This example is mild compared to the entire list. Looking for a new career or job?
