A recent article on the Today page of msnbc.msn.com sure caught my attention. With my darling bride unemployed and consulting in a major swoon globally, I’ve always got my eyes open for a new opportunity. And since I’m no longer interested in boring, nine-to-five gigs, I found the article positively riveting.
It’s about the best jobs in the world. (None of them involve riveting.) Here’s the list:
- Paradise island caretaker
- Inventor of fried foods
- Water-slide tester
- Chocolate taster
- Cyclist in Paris
- Beer taster
- Bed tester (including luxury beds)
- Medical marijuana reviewer
- Internet-savvy globe traveler
- TV corpse
The beer tasters actually have to swallow! That’s unlike wine tasters and the coffee testers; they have to spit theirs out. That’s why you don’t see those jobs on this list! The cyclist job is a Google venture; he gets to pull around a trailer with a video camera mounted on a tall post, taking pictures for the Google Maps website (among others). The fried-food inventor just won the Best New Fried Food award at the Texas State Fair, for his Deep-Fried Butter concoction. (I reported on that back in September).
I wonder, do you think I could maybe get a combo job from this list? Like fried-food inventor combined with beer taster? And then moonlighting as a bed tester? Or maybe beer taster AND TV corpse? (If I’ve had enough to drink, I can easily simulate a cadaver.) How ’bout paradise island caretaker where you get to statistically test the water park’s slides?
Life can be tough at times; but not for the lucky slimeballs folks who have these jobs…
Enjoy the (Wacky Jobs) Heat!
