Most of my bad jobs were like Lou's, not so much inhumane conditions as just total assholes for bosses, esp. the one where everyone in management inherited their positions. That said, I was reminded the other day by making a delivery to my last place of employment that working in any print shop is a miserable environment...you don't even realize how you come how you come home every day smelling of the petrochemical solvents in the blanket wash used on all presses until you get away from it for awhile.
