These are some jobs that I didn't know existed until recently.
A pet food taster is exactly how it sounds, a person who tests out the flavor and consistency of pet food by eating it. I know some companies use dogs or cats to test the flavor and smell of the food, but a person tasting pet food was a first for me.
I always thought that there were people who tested the smell of deodorant, but this goes beyond that. In my understanding, not only is the deodorant tester person responsible for okaying the scent, but they need to smell the deodorant on people's underarms after some physical activity to really know how good it works.
Of course when a company makes a product, they need to test it. There are people whose primary responsibility is to flush toilets and record what the capacity of the flush can handle.
A laughter therapist is a person who helps make people laugh who are suffering from illness, depression and other disorders. It has been established for a while now that laughter can help speed up the healing process, but I didn't know, until recently, there were actually professional laughter therapists.
A chicken sexer is a needed but unusual job that most people haven't heard of. The responsibility with this job is to distinguish the male from the female chicks and separate them.
Great list! mmmm....pet food! H5
I learned about #4 just recently too.The therapy sounds like fun too. Good odd job lists.
