sewer worker
Subterranean pipe technician
A sewer worker maintains and repairs underground drainage systems that carry wastewater.
The job involves entering tunnels, clearing blockages, and inspecting pipes—work that is physically demanding and often unpleasant.
The sewer workers discovered the source of the backup.
The term sometimes appears metaphorically for anyone who handles society's undesirable tasks.
