Why work in an Office when you can do this??

...Because you can NEVER have too many pictures of people in Banana suits

When you're unemployed, strange things happen to your brain. Forget grand dreams of being a ballerina, or an astronaut, you get to the point where you're so desperate that you will take anything. Between me and some of my unemployed friends, we have found the following jobs:

• Helping to promote perfume at a party by standing there naked and covered in said perfume, whilst guests walk into the party blindfolded and smell you. If I was one of those models, I'd want to staple those blindfolds to their heads to make damn sure they weren't seeing no wobbly bits.
• Dressing up in a banana suit and (Direct Quote from job application) "Running around, hollering, having fun, letting go and basically acting crazy!" to promote a new juice bar in central London.
• Painting people's houses dressed in a "Revealing, yet non-erotic costume".
• Volunteering to be part of medicinal trials because, oh I don't know, you'd really like a third eyeball.
• Dressing up in pink and lime green spandex and standing on stilts in the Leeds town centre handing out brochures for new nightclubs.
• Being a female wrestler, albeit one who is comfortable wrestling in a bikini.
• Being a "Lice Assassin" and go around to Primary School curing children and their families of the problem that is Head Lice.
• Being a model for an acupuncture training video and be (Again, direct quote) "Immortalised in the acupuncture world."

Hmm, that banana suit job is starting to look pretty good.
