Hello Anon,
Thank you for your question today!
Appendicitis occurs when the appendix becomes blocked, many times by stool, a foreign body, in some cases cancer. A blockage may also occur from infection since the appendix swells in response to any infection in the body. It's unlikely your job will cause this. I've provided a link below that will give you more detailed information on appendicitis.
