The hardest freelance job that I ever took was to transcribe a conversation between three people. The audio was hard to transcribe in some areas as they were talking over top of each other. The audio was a brain storming session and they wanted notes.

What's the hardest or weirdest job you have done so far?

One time, I was hired to write 100 paragraphs about steam cleaners. I didn't know it then, but I created keyword fodder for a client. I had to use a steam cleaning-related keyword between every 4 or 5 other word, and the result was ridiculous. But the client was happy and he paid me. o_O

Gee, it was like you were walking on a tightrope. I don’t know if I will accept that work of writing something that is alien to me. Steam cleaning is not a common item or work that you need an orientation before you can write about it. Nevertheless you have done the job and I’m sure will be choosy in accepting work next time. I only accept jobs that I can do easily because my freelancing is not my livelihood for now.

How was your client using these keyword rich paragraphs?

Was that for use on a blog or forum? And, how did you find out?
