Transporting bodies to different places for embalming and funeral. One of my coworkers had breakdown because of the amount of bodies we see everyday.
That wouldn't be my choice of career either!
teaching autistic children
Not so much unusual as seemingly redundant. When I was 16 I had a job where I packed boxes into boxes. Utterly mind-numbing.

[1 point] 4 years ago by deleted user ReplyIt depends on what you call unusual. I don't think it's unusual but there are never any classified ads requesting the services of someone like me, so, of course, the only way I can ever get work is by word of mouth referrals or by making cold calls to people I think might benefit from the services I offer.
OK, I'm intrigued now :)
Drug runner?
heh heh heh
Hey, my best friend back in SF when I was young and just married worked at the Institute for the Advanced Study of Human Sexualities bookstore, don't remember the name of it. Had all kins of stuff that a lot would consider porn but was open only to professional sex therapists, psychologists, and the like--but the staff gave serious and quite sincere recommendations of vibrators. And there was, and is, a vibrator/dildo museum in SF on Valencia Street.
i used to take a job as a guy's girl friend..
that sounds to me kinda weird now
that certainly is out of the ordinary.
I'm assuming you mean just being seen with him to boost his image, as opposed to performing any of the seedier things a guy might expect from his girlfriend?
Lessee... I was once a pool hustler, a stripper, a blacksmith's assistant/sales person, and once a dead belly dancer. (A performer with the Danse Macabre at the California Renaissance Pleasure Faires, my character was a dead belly dancer). There have probably been other jobs some would consider unusual, but I don't.
The more you post, the more absolutely fascinating you sound.
Seriously have you considered writing an autobiography or memoirs or something?
"Memoirs of a dead belly dancer" would make a great title.
Would love to meet you sometime :)
