Try working at a tire store, one of the dirtiest jobs imaginable. I've also worked at lube and oil change, clean & painted apartments (which included cleaning the toilets), ski lift build/maint, drove a tow truck (AAA and police), and other hard, menial jobs for minimum wage. That was my incentive to work on a career and better myself.
