Site Creates List of Bizarre Jobs

Posted on April 20, 2006

A website called 2Spare has compiled a list of jobs they call the 25 most bizarre jobs. Some of the jobs are more uncommon than bizarre but there are some very unusual jobs on the list. Here are a few of them.

Ant Catcher: Digs up live ants for use in pastic ant farms.

Chicken Sexer: Sorts through baby chicks to determine if they are male or female, and then segregate them. The chicken sexer puts the chicken hatchlings on the appropriate track early, enabling those chickens to receive optimal nourishment for their likely commercial role from an early age.

Wrinkle Chaser: The person that irons wrinkles from shoes as they are being made to ensure they are perfectly smooth when you buy them.

Pillowcase turner: Turns pillowcases right side out and stretches material to remove wrinkles.

Furniture Tester: Want to relax for a living? The La-z-Boy Company (and probably others) employs furniture testers to check out their recliners.

Of the five we mentioned the furniture tester sounds the best. The article did not mention the salary for any of these positions but it probably isn't very high.
