Weird Jobs

I know about strange jobs, a "skip - tracer" (a title, the people - in this case to serve subpoenas), a repo man, and a newspaper ad inserter. I have also been a couple of unusual business endeavors, including selling stuffed animals in glass jars ( "Canned Critters," they have never catch), form and earrings from fish scales (which have better). Here are some strange way to make money.
  • Elephant Tender
This task includes the care of elephants for a circus or zoo. Mostly means that a lot of shoveling large pile of well, you get the point. Apart from a dirty job, it can be dangerous.
  • Political business
Did you think politicians write their own campaign, brochures and other materials? Come to think of it is hardly their own thoughts. A writer says, they charged $ 25 to $ 35 per hour for the letter for politicians.
  • Hot Walker
A hot walker is the person who walks around race horses for a race. This is important, because if a horse does not cool down before returning to the stall, the overheating can cause kidney damage.
  • Weird Restoration Business
Old merry-go-rounds must be restored if they are not thrown away. Anyone has to do, and undoubtedly will be paid fairly for this area.
  • Translators for technical manuals
What do you do when you want the technical manual or guide for the video recorder from Japanese into English? Call someone who does this work. Langwierig, but the payment is in order.
  • Bird Poop Jewelry
No, I am not this one. It really was (is?) A man who had a shop selling bird-poop jewelry. He wrapped the various types in acrylic, and made them into trailers and earrings.
  • A strange and terrible Job
I recently read about a woman who worked as an assembler of injection needles. Their task was to determine the needles of the syringes. She was supported by the piece, and the less than $ 6 a class, because for all the time, rather their wounds.

Maybe you do not want to always be a sumo wrestler assistant, or for that matter have a proctologist or strange jobs here. But they are fun to read.

Camel Beauty Pageant

Don't you ever think that only human have a beauty pageant? In Saudi Arabia, they also have a beauty pageant just like anywhere else in the world but, the contestant are camels!

The competition that they called Mazayen al-Ibl, a parade to find the "most beautiful camels", were held by the Otaiba tribe in the desert region of Shaqra, 300 kilometres from Riyadh.

The camels are divided into several categories, for the the female and even male camels.

You might think, how they pick the winner? Some of the criteria to gain high points are; the nose should be long and droop down, the neck should be long, the ears should stand back, the hump should be high and the body should be strong.

This is a very unique event, isn't it? Anyway, watch the video.
