Job Ideas

A new book at the Library titled 100 Bull**** Jobs...And How to Get Them is cataloged in the 331s, which is the subject area for careers and job searching. Nevertheless, the book is hard to take seriously, but that perception may be because I am not a skillful bull**** artist. According to the author Stanley Bing, the jobs included in the book are pleasant, well paid, and highly respected. Mr. Bing has been reporting on corporate life since the early 1980s, so he may know what he is talking about. Below is list of some of the jobs he profiles.

Aquarium Cleaner for the Rich
Aromatherapist
Backup Dancer
Business Book Author (Bing's job)
Closet Organizer
Cold Caller
Consultant
Handler
Headhunter
Investment Banker
Life Coach
Media Trainer
Motivational Speaker
Personal Publicist
Personal Trainer
Poker Teacher
Raw Chef

And let me add my own - Corporate Blogger. For more serious job searching, please see the Library's research guide, Job Searching.
