 1 ) HUMAN SCARECROW:
If you know those scarecrows that are
stuffed with straws, this might seem like a
surprise to you. According to reports,
there are human beings now doing this as
a job. They stay in the place of a fake
scarecrow, and always chase away the
birds.

2) Paper Towel Sniffer

Paper towel manufacturers leave no
stone unturned (loosely translated
to leave no roll unsniffed) in ensuring
that their rolls don’t smell foul
before, during and after use. How do
they check for any unwanted smell
after use? Gross!

 3) Car Plate Blocker

in a bid to reduce congestion on
the roads, Iran has employed a
strange policy where cars with
number plates ending in odd and
even numbers are allowed on
roads on alternate days only.
Iranians hire men to walk behind
their cars so that the cameras
don’t capture their number plates

 4)Gross Stunt Tester

Love watching shows like I’m a Celebrity Get Me
Out of Here or Survivor? If you’ve watched the
challenges taking place and thought “I could do
that” – then you might have a future as a gross
stunt tester.
You’d have to prepare and test out all the
challenges. It would be your responsibility to
ensure tasks are safe and contain the maximum
grossness factor. On the plus side, you could earn up
to $800 a day, and you have to wonder if there’s
really much competition for the jobs.

5)Professional Line Stande

A skilled line stander will do precisely
what the term of the position implies:
wait in line for others. It’s a position that
is useful on signi cant occasions like
Black Friday or the introduction of new
products, like the iPhone. They are able
to earn about $1,000 (£750) per week.
