JOB WEEK: The Waiting

Hello again and welcome to Day 3 of Job Week.

As part of job week, I decided to draft up a list of the jobs that I think would be just fabulous to have. Here they are:

1) Google Streetview Driver:
Description: Drive around for hours in amazing cities supervising equipment taking pictures for you.
Perks: Free travel. Free pictures. (Assumedly) Free accomodation. You could also get your friends to dress up as wizards or stage a mugging in the background of one of your street pictures.
Drawbacks: A lot of driving. You're also liable to lose your job if the privacy campaginers get their way.

2) Gatekeeper
Description: "Alright, Master Hobbit, I meant no offence. It's my job to ask questions after dark."
Perks: Hobbits. Also, you don't have to shave for work.
Drawbacks: High likelyhood of being crushed by ringwraiths searching for said hobbits.

3) Dog Walker
Description: Run in big, flowery fields with loveable Golden Retrievers and Labradors.
Perks: I WANT A DOG, GODDAMMIT! WHERE IS MY BOX WITH HOLES?!
Drawbacks: I think you actually might have to scoop the dog poo if it's your job. I still wouldn't.

4) The Queen
Description: Talk to Obama. OMIGOD SHE GOT TO TALK TO OBAMA! Some crown-wearing also.
Perks: Talking to Obama. OMIGOD SHE GOT TO TALK TO OBAMA!
Drawbacks: The Queen Consort. General requirement of being a woman. Being blamed for how you handled that Diana thing.

5) Popular Mechanics for Kids Host
Description: I know that show has been off the air for years, but wasn't their job so cool?!
Perks: Where do you even start? Rocket ships, blowing stuff up, skydiving, Elisa Cuthbert, shooting guns, science, probably some candy too. Oh, and money. Lots of money.
Drawbacks: Um...if you can think of any, email me.

So that's my shortlist. Corss your fingers for me!

And now, please enjoy Part 3 of the 5 part Lastoke miniseries JObHUNT.

Goin' 'round the outside, 'round the outside, 'round the outsiiiiide,
