For a bit of fun post the most unusual or least talked about careers someone could have in a post-Apoc world!
Ill start off with-
Chimney Sweep - People will need to keep chimneys clean of soot etc.
NB - Some of these jobs will be things people did in the past that we no longer use.

I got 'hunter'
I imagine post SHTF there would be a rise in private security & armed escorts. Would be difficult to build a rep but once trusted I'm sure there would be no shortage of need for such people.
Also blacksmithing - with the need to repair things rather than replace, the ability to reshape parts and forge new ones will be in high demand. A good friend of mine is gearing up for it to be his post SHTF trade, trick is to avoid electric and gas... need to be able to make your own fuel.

Re the post-apoc trade: septic tank emptier (like the old dunny men that went around cleaning out the outhouses)

You can keep that job tyburn lol
I got a mate who works for transpacific emptying the portable shitters at work and I say to him, "do you wake up sometimes and say "my job sucks shit"" lol
I imagine as fuel runs dry, wagoners will come into being again as people go back to horse and kart to get around.
