This is a question Strange things you've been paid to do

I once spent two years being paid by the UK government to play Quake.

What's the strangest thing you've been paid to do?

Best Job Ever
My friend has contacts in the film industry, and managed to get us parts as extras in "Johnny English" (I'm one of the pages in the coronation scene!).

We got paid £8 an hour, and did 8 days of 10 hours.

£640 for appearing in a mainstream film.

And the best bit was that we only actually worked for 2 days in total... The rest of the time we were playing cards/chatting/getting free cooked lunches in the extras tent, waiting there in case we were needed!!!
