Writing Prompts: Unusual Jobs
There are many areas of a character’s life that you can exploit to torment them and I think that perhaps the most favorite of them (mine at least) is their place of employment. But there are jobs and then there are JOBS. Below is a list of unusual jobs that your character could have the (mis)fortune of being paid to do. One or two you may have to work at building a story around but most of these just invite a rich and humorous exploration.
The links go to various online sources that describe the jobs.
3. Telemarketer for a cemetery
5. Barnyard Masturbator #3 on the list
6. Foley Artist
8. Stand in or replacement bridesmaid
9. Gum Buster
13. Cheese Sprayer

I am a writer. I write a variety of things including articles, short stories, and novels. I’m a big fan of science fiction and fantasy but I also enjoy reading and writing erotica, some of which you will find on my website. I write mainly for pleasure but I do hope to eventually get published. [
