We would like to invite Mike to come work at the worlds largest cotton gin. It runs 24/7 from Mid-Sept to Mid-November. In a typical year we gin over 130,000 bales of cotton. The dirt and smell will knock you off your feet!

Hey Mike and Crew!

I have a number of jobs that would give you at least a few more episodes. I am a Security Technician. There is one place that I ran cable and installed CCTV that I can honestly say is nothing but DIRTY. All I have to say is that anytime that I had to be there, whatever clothing I was wearing went in the trash at the end of the day! They take all kinds of metal from crushed cars to anything that is a metal product.
I know that you have a lot of great jobs previously posted and honestly it would be cool if you guys came and filmed more than one show that we have suggested. Here is the name, address, and phone number for the business.
Thanks, Mike and Crew

Hey Mike,
In Berryville there is a place called caywood gunmakers that makes semi-custom muzzleloading flint lock firearms. The amount of dirt and grime you can kick up would be great. You need to stock work(saw dust and wood shavings) grinding of metal, stock finishing( getting your hands dirty applying stains and sealers)polishing metal then blueing the metal(more chemical to get all over yourself) then the final assembly. Now If you ask really nice they might let you shout a finished gun but only if you agree to clean it. Firing a black powder fire are would bring you closer to history and the wonderful smell rotten eggs which is what the black powder smells like after burning. The last treat would be that the person that makes the locks or firing mech. has the same name as you Mike Rowe so you could be visiting a relation lost in time. Or just Mike Rowe meeting Mike Rowe. Check out there webb sit at www.caywoodguns.com or call them at 870-423-4741.

Hey Mike, I work for Preffered Auto and Truck Parts in Conway, AR. My job title is Field Dismantler, What I do is pull parts such as starters, doors, hoods,any useable resaleable part, etc from wrecked cars/trucks all over the recyling yard. These parts are still good but the cars/trucks as a whole are totaled. As you can guess, it can be a realy dirty job. Oh and I failed to mention, we do this job no matter the weather conditions, rain, snow, heat, or cold it does not matter. In Arkansas, if you don't like the weather just wait 5 minutes and it will change. There is also the fact that there is no telling what animals/critters you might run into, like snakes, feral cats & dogs, wasps and more. It is always a surprise. Not to mention the odd jobs that the owner gives me. One of which resulted in a feral cat trying to eat my hand. Basically, if you want to work hard, sweat in any type of weather no matter the tempature, and get dirty then come on down for a little southern hospitality. I'll even show you how to accidentally bust windsheilds.

Hey Mike,

I have a really nasty, gross, smelly, disgusting dirty job for you. It is at River Valley Animal Foods in Scranton Arkansas, a Division of Tyson Foods. It is where they make dog food. They take left over chicken pieces, feathers, blood and various other things to be processed for making dog food. On a cool day you can smell it from miles away but on a hot day you can smell it in the next county. My Ex-Husband use to work there. He would come home in the mornings and have to leave his clothes on the back Porch because they stunk so badly. He never got all the smell off him. After so long I couldn’t tell which was my Husband and which was the stinking hog. You say you want a Nasty Dirty Job then this will not disappoint you. Any job you do there is gross.

I've heard that the Mississippi River Barge deck hands is a nasty job. You can find them in West Memphis

When it comes to dirty jobs in Arkansas working in the chicken industry is where it begins and ends. Tyson Foods in Waldron Arkansas will walk Mike through everything from the processing of chickens to maintenance of the fleet. Evisceration may possibly be too dirty for TV

HEY GUYS, I WATCH ABOUT EVERY SHOW. I HAVE NEVER SEEN MIKE IN A RADIATOR SHOP. MY FATHER OWNS AND OPERATES HIS OWN HERE IN ARKANSAS. IT IS AN EXTEMELY DIRTY JOB. I PERSONALY HAVE WORKED IN THE OIL FIELD INDUSTRY AND MANY MANUFACTURING PLANTS. I WOULD HAVE TO SAY THAT MY FATHER GETS DIRTIER THEN ANY OF THEM. HE HAS SUPPORTED US WELL THRU THE YEARS WHILE I WAS GROWING UP, AND I AM VERY PROUD TO HAVE HIM AS A FATHER. I AM SURE HE WOULD LET YOU GET YOUR CREW OUT HERE AND JUST TRY TO KEEP UP WITH HIM...LOL

Bat Guano Remover
Marvel Cavern Branson MO

I hope Silver Dollar City doesn't revoke my year round passes for this, but at this attraction there is a natural cavern that you can tour. I been on this tour 3 times, and it's been awhile since the last time, but if memory serves there is a huge drop off and stairs that wind and wind down. At the bottom the tour guide points out the huge pile of bat guano (crap in other words) that is lit up and tens of feet high. The tour guide talks about what it is and that it is occasionally removed and used in all kinds of things including Mascara?

Who does this, how, and is that last bit true???

Fish Spawner and Blood Tester. In the town of Lonoke, Arkansas is the World's Largest Producer of Triploid Grass Carp. During the months of May and June this fish farm induces very large fish to spawn and then shocks the eggs with hydraulic presses to make them sterile. The spawning process is very wet and slimy. Someone typically ends up getting hit in the face by a tail or covered with eggs and sperm. A skilled biologist is required to "stimulate' the fish to spawn, call it foreplay. In addition to this dirty job the farm has to individually blood test each fish prior to sale to ensure sterility. This is also a wet, slimy job requiring them to handle jumping, slimy fish. The science of it all is also fascinating. Their website is www.jmmaloneandson.com.
Thankyou

Crop scout for Moore’s Pest Management Service, Marion AR. It’s a great job if you want to get dirty. We get to check cotton, rice, corn, and soy bean fields for insects and weeds from the time they sprout to harvest. Doesn’t sound like fun yet, well with temperatures over a 100 degrees, lots of mud, rain, and having to fight your way through crops larger than you to walk across a 100+ acre fields all day, it’s a blast. O yeah it’s the best in July that’s when the fun really begins!!! P.S. Bring some good walking shoes its going to be a long day.
Send me an email if you want to come down Christopher.cato@smail.astate.edu

Site Supervisor / Equip. Operator Driller.
Quality Drilling Service. Christiansburg, Ohio
We are headquartered in Ohio but travel to work at various waste landfills everywhere in the country at any given time. Sometimes up North in the winter or down South in the dusty, dry heat. Most of the time it is very wet and muddy, but it is always nasty, and very foul smelling.We install methane gas wells by drilling into existing, rotting trash (which produces the gas) and installing pipe, gravel, clay, etc. The idea is to keep the landfill safe from fire and possible explosion, but also to use the natural resource for energy and is a very 'green' science/ industry. Come check out what we do. Folks would be suprised at what happens after they take the trash to the curb. Sorry about the stench!
