Number 1 for 2007 is the Hazmat Diver, with the tagline "They swim in sewerage. Enough said". The start of the description includes this story:
...A guy had driven his truck into the waste lagoon and drowned. Not only was it full of urine and liquid pig feces, the farmer had dumped all the needles used to inject the pigs with antibiotics and hormones in there. Someone had to recover the body, and the task fell to commercial hazmat divers....
