#WackyWednesday: Wackiest jobs around the world

Searching for employment can be tough, but there are jobs which very few people have considered doing because the work seemed to unreal too be even considered.

Here are five of the strangest jobs to exist.

1. Professional sleeper

This is a dream job, in more ways than one. A hotel in Finland has employed one of its staff members as a professional sleeper. The purpose of this is to test the comfort of the hotel’s beds.

Professional sleepers can also be employed by medical research facilities, where projects help scientists and doctors figure out the mysteries behind numerous sleep disorders.

2. Dog food taster

This is not an easy job to stomach, as it is a dog food tester’s job is to taste new dog food products, including bones, tinned meat and biscuits.

Why would anyone do this? These individuals have to test for flavour and texture in comparison to rival dog food brands and human food. How far would you go to ensure your pets had the best food?

3. Professional pusher

Like pushing people around? If so, this is the job for you. A pusher is an individual who pushes people onto the train at a railway station during the morning and evening rush hours, and is apparently an exerting job in Japan.

4.Professional cuddler

If you like cuddling with people, but really need cash, you should consider becoming a professional cuddler.

This is apparently a growing industry in America and Japan, where people pay someone to simply cuddle with them and nothing more.

5. Video game tester

This is an ideal job for all gaming enthusiasts. In the United Kingdom, video game testers are in big demand.

The main duties include playing new games, reporting faults and ensuring quality. A huge number of game manufacturers are currently looking for gamers, including Sega and Rockstar Group.

Attention to detail and a keen interest in video games is required, but still, playing games for work? How epic!
