To be able to feed, pay rents, clothe and defray utilities,
one need a source of income. Different people have actually assumed
different occupations just to make end meet. Unemployment we could say
is the leading cause of chaos and the fulcrum of crime in any society.
To have a crime free society and prevent other unemployment inspired
mishaps, different nations have actually gone extra miles to make jobs
available to it citizens. There are quite a number of jobs around the
world you may not have known exist, most of which may look weird to you
or rather ludicrous.
How many of these jobs are you quite familiar with?
Armpit Sniffer
It
shouldn't come as a surprise that sniffing arm pit is actually a job.
Don't you think that for every new product that had been produced, there
must be a way of testing it before it hits the market? Most deodorant
companies often employ armpit sniffers to do this job. Their only job is
to sniff different armpits all day just to make sure that what had been
produced is actually doing it job -mask body odor. Workers must have
good sense of smell and must be willing to smell someone else's sweaty
body. Salaries usually rages from $19,000 - $52,000 a year.
Chicken Sexer
The
job of the chicken sexer is to determine the sex of baby chickens when
they hatch to know whether they are male or females so that they can be
separated into different chambers. These people actually make good
money, according to British poultry council workers salaries are usually
around £40,000 ($51,598) a year.
Professional Mourner:
Mourning
is an expression of sorrow for someones death an it may actually be
something that no one would wish to do. But do you know that there are
some people who mourn just to earn a living and they are usually
regarded as professionals? In South east Asia, majority believed that a
loud funeral can actually make the dead journey with ease to the
afterlife so professional mourners are hired to do this job, they cry
and weep loudly throughout the service in order to assist the dead.
Professional mourners are expected to make around $30 - $120 per funeral
according to their experience and how loud they can cry. Funeral
usually last at around 2-4hours which actually mean that they can have
two different contract per day.
Mattress Jumping
Jump
on beds, test their comfort abilities and make some bucks. Most
mattress companies often recruit workers to jump up and down each
mattress that had been produced before they are up for sale. The aim is
to compress the dozens of layers of cotton inside of each mattress and
make sure that the bed is free of lumps and other imperfections.However,
there is no specific salary data for this occupation but some research
claims that workers are often pain on average $10 per hour.
Snake Milker
Snake venom are very important in the field of medicine. They are know to treat several health complications especially high blood pressures. In order to get hold of this important medicine, there must be a way to get it and the only way that seem possible is to extract it from snakes. While there are several people working in banks, hospitals and other offices, there are others who are busy all day milking snakes for their venom.
This seem pretty risky of an occupation i guess? Of course
it is very risky. But there are people who don't give a shit about what
risks are involve. All they know is that they are earning a living and
at the same time saving someones else's life. Although there are no
accurate data as to how much they receive as pay check but for someone
to dedicate his time to such an occupation, it means there must be a lot
of icing in the cake.
Ban-yard Masturbators
The
job of the barnyard masturbator is to masturbate farm animals for their
sperm. Of course you heard that right -people make money by jerking
animals off so don't be surprise. The sperms are usually collected in
readiness for an artificial insemination. There are usually two options
for this process. The first is to use a rectal electrifier which sends
small shots of electricity up the bottom of the animal to stimulate it
from behind. While the other options is to do it the old fashioned way.
Although this looks pretty gross of an occupation. But what can we say,
there are lots of
people who will jump at the offer when they know how much bucks are
involve.
Full-time Netflix viewer:
Imagine
being paid to watch TV
all day! Don't you think this is the best job on earth? Whoever that
has this as an occupation is blessed already. Netflix actually hired
workers to watch all of their content before it is
available to the public. Their role is to watch different movies and
place them in their categories in order to help viewers identify
different types of movies.
Professional sleeper:
Most
hotels these days hire professional sleepers to test comfort of their
bed. A hotel in Finland had once done that. The hotel hired a member of
staff as a ‘professional sleeper’ to test how comfortable their mattress
was. The individual slept in different bed each night and writes review
about her satisfaction with each one.
