    Hangover Helpers Party Cleaners

    It’s exactly what it sounds like, the cleaners make $20 per roommate by showing up where a big party with lots of drinking occurred the night before.  The serve burritos and Gatorade and clean every bottle, dirty dish and mess left over from the party so that the only evidence that remains is that dirty feeling, a little guilt and a slight headache.

    Human Alarm Clocks

    This one I really think I would not only love to do but if anyone could benefit from a more aggressive form of alarm clockerty it’s me…Basically a real live person takes the place of your alarm and the reminders you set for important things on your calendar.  I’m curious if you can suggest the style you preferred to be woken up in, for example I would have my person alarm call me and tell me things like…”if you get up right now you’ll loss 5 lbs” or “there’s a cheesecake waiting for you at work on your desk but only if you get there on time” then again that would only work for about a week then I’d need some to just call and yell at me until I get up.

    Paint Dry Watcher

    I bet your thinking this is some guy sitting in a chair literally watching paint dry but you’d only be half right, yes there’s that but they also take samples, test boring stuff.

    Professional Cuddler

    Or as I like to say “Cuddle Buddies” which is a term I’ve been using to refer to myself for long enough to wonder if I’ve been robbed of one of my world famous “Tawny-isms”….not even sure I’m using that noun correctly,  yep I’m good, I googled it.  Anyway, Professional Cuddlers are actually hugely popular in Japan and some parts of northern America.  Can you imagine if I started this business here in Midland/Odessa?  Shoot son I’d be booked for months. Keep in mind a “Cuddle Buddy” has absolutely nothing to do with anything sexual, you can request your spoon partner to wear certain attire if you want, in Japan they get a lot of anime character requests as well as requests for ear cleaning with q-tips. Not sure I understand that one but hey to each his/her own right?  All I know is that the boy to girl ratio here is tipped considerably and I’m betting there are more than a few fellas that would pay to butt up to warm body for a little while.

    Professional Queuer

    That title is way confusing when really they could’ve just called it Professional stand in line for you person, I suppose the other way is shorter. Anyway, yeah so this is a person lobbyists use often times to wait in line at busy congressional hearings, and in China, where it’s actually quite common for a bank line up to take half a day, Professional Queuer’s jobs are gradually growing in popularity. Are you kidding me?  How is this not a thing here?  You mean to tell me if people knew you could pay someone to stand in line for you let’s say during Black Friday or for tickets to a concert or something that people here in the states wouldn’t pay for it?  I would, if I could pay someone to stand in line for me at HEB or Walgreens you bet your ass I would!
