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?

Part of my roles and responsibilities is to certify that vehicles used for crash testing are fully functional as far as signals from airbag/ABS/traction control systems go. That is not so daft in itself. BUT! to save money, the same vehicle will becrashed backwards, forwards and rolled over. So after the first crash, I have to fix all the broken electronic on-board systems....so they can crash it again...then I have to fix them again....so they can crash it again again.
