I have to admit I had to look up the meaning of a “roustabout” I guess being a circus laborer who helps in setting up and taking down tents and caring for the animals, equipment, and grounds would not be fun. Working in any proximity to clowns on a regular basis would make my life a living hell. Steven King’s “IT” gave me many a nightmare.
