I was soup stock maker for the vegetarian dining co-op that I belonged to (in college, we all had jobs to run the place and I got stuck with this) which meant every week I had to boil all the veggie scraps that the cooks/prep crew collected during the week, removing the stuff that was incorrectly put in the stinking refuse pots like banana peels, etc. in a huge caldron and then strain it for vegetable stock. It was hot, stinking and miserable - but not as bad as what you all posted up top!!
