The 10 Weirdest Jobs in the World

The 10 Weirdest Jobs in the World Feeling a bit bored with your job and fancy a change? Why not try one of these jobs out? Theyre probably not to everyones taste, but believe it or not these are actually real jobs done by real people. Here are the top 10 weirdest jobs in the world: 10) Professional sleeper: A hotel in Finland hired a member of staff as a professional sleeper to test the comfort of their beds. The individual sleeps in a different one of the hotel beds each night and writes a review about her satisfaction with  each one. 9) Drying paint watcher: No, this isnt a joke. Someone actually earns a living watching paint dry. A man in the UK currently has the job and he spends his days  painting sheets of cardboard to test  how long new paint mixes take to dry and watching for changes in color and texture. 8) Full-time Netflix viewer: Imagine being paid to watch TV all day! Well for one lucky employee this dream has become reality. Netflix has hired  someone to watch all of their content before it is available to the public and their role is to review and assign each program its correct tag, which helps us viewers find exactly what were after, whether its a  romantic crime movie based on classic literature or  witty talking-animal TV show. 7) Train Pusher: If you think the London Underground is bad, you should see the trains in Japan. Oshiyas are hired to help cram as many people onto a train as possible by pushing them from the outside until the doors will close. 6) Professional Mourner: It is a tradition in South East Asia that a loud funeral will assist the dead as they travel to the afterlife,  so professional mourners are hired to  cry and weep loudly  throughout the  service. 5) Snake Milker: Not for the light-hearted. The job of a snake milker is to collect the venom of poisonous snakes in jars for use in anti-venoms and other medication. Thank god someones brave enough! 4) Dog food taster: The dog food testers job is to taste new dog food products, including bones, tinned meat, and biscuits. They do this to test for flavor and texture in comparison to rival dog food brands and human food. Hmmtastey? 3) Odour  Judge: In order to test the effectiveness of new products, odor judges are hired to smell volunteers breath, feet and armpits. They make sure their judgment is accurate, the members of staff have their sense of smell tested monthly. Lets hope those products are doing the trick, for the judges sake! 2) Marmite Taster: They say you love it or  hate it and in the case of St John Skelton, he really takes his appreciation  for it to another level.  As part of a team of marmite tasters, he is responsible for checking each batch of Marmite is the correct texture, consistency and flavour. In the 30 years he has been working there, he has eaten around 3,000 jars of the stuff! 1)  Scuba Diving Pizza Delivery Man: If the fact that theres an underwater hotel in Florida isnt bizarre enough, to add on to that, they have a scuba diving pizza delivery man who supplies them with pizza by carrying them through the sea  in  a watertight case. What service. Do you do an unusual job? Wed love to hear about it, so let us know!
