“Worst industrial jobs in UK’s history” – Hong Kong’s own list?
HF: You may not have come across this UK Channel 4 five part series narrated by Tony Robinson.
Jobs featured are: bridge-builder, canal tunnel legger, soap boiler, glass blower, knocker up, bone cleaner, presser, saggar maker’s bottom knocker and child mine hurrier…
I wonder what Hong Kong’s “worst” occupations were (are)…hand- dug caisson excavator, lead mining, textile dyeing, ship-breaking, oyster diving, salt manufacturing, sedan chair carrier, railway tunneller, lime kiln worker?
