Muireann O'Connell opens up on grim details of job she had before she found fame

Muireann O’Connell has opened up about a grim bathroom job she had before she was launched into the public eye on Irish television.

Everyone will know what it feels like to have had one or two dodgy jobs during college, and while some were blessed with more pleasant work, others were not so lucky.

Posting a clip on Instagram of the latest “And Another Thing” podcast episode, Muireann revealed that she used to work in a nightclub toilet, where she would have to deal with drunk antics on a nightly basis.

She published the clip alongside a caption that read: “When you think your job is gonna be like working with Tom Cruise in Cocktail but it ends up being Apocalypse Now.

“Nightclub workers, you know. Share the grimness! (Obvs way harder jobs out there but plunging sinks full of sick with your hands stays with you).”

Delving into the gory details she said: “I do think everyone should have to work in a nightclub at one stage in their lives because there is no such thing as manners when it’s 1:50 am in the morning, and people are just fighting for survival”.

She said: “So there was a group of us, we all worked in the nightclub called Trinity Rooms.

“I’m in the toilets, that was my job… the toilets.

“And to say I have seen liquids of all colours coming out of every orifice of people’s bodies.. and that I have had to climb over stall doors to break into other stalls as girls have their tops over their heads, their pants on the ground, there’s nothing going on in between, and they’ve somehow fit themselves behind the cistern in the loo”.

Have you any haunting college job memories that can top this? Let us know in the comments.
