1. Being unemployed often makes people think of unique ways to make money. Take Jim Parker from Sacramento. Last year he lost his job in a high-tech company and has found it impossible to get full-time work. In desperation, he became self-employed and is now trying hard to sell advertising space. If the price is right, he intends to tattoo an advertisement – on his forehead! He has already turned down an offer of $75,000.

2. King Alfonso XIII of Spain was going deaf so he employed an ‘Anthem Man’. His only job was to give a signal to the king when the national anthem was being played so that he would know when to stand up and when to sit down.

3. The railway can offer some odd jobs too. In Japan, ‘Passenger Pushers’ are employed full time by the railway companies in Tokyo. During the rush hour, when hundreds of people are trying to get on the metro, they do their best to squeeze everyone into trains so that doors will close properly.

4. In America, Miss Edith King was given an unusual job in the army. She was employed by the US War Department in 1905 with the task of finding soldiers who had run away from the army. She collected $50 for each deserter. Her only weapon was flirting. She flirted with soldires and then led them to court. She led over five hundred to court. She must have had real charm.

5. Another place for strange jobs was escalators. When the first escalator was installed at Harrods Department Store in London in 1898, it made many people scared. Shop assistants were put at the top of the escalator with instructions to give brandy to customers! And in 1911, when metro stations installed their first escalators, they employed a man with a wooden leg. His job was to walk up and down the escalators all day to show passengers how safe they were.
