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?

Got paid a large pile of cash to sit watching computer equipment for a large company - as the head-bloke had read something about this bug that would hit on the dawn of the new millennium.
So we sat there - very high up in a tower block - with a nice view over london, several company provided bottles of very expensive plonk all waiting for something that WE knew wasn't going to happen.
Then left at 00:20 £900 richer and ready to party.
