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?

I got paid to sit around watching TV and downloading MP3s all night with a buzzer on the wall. If the buzzer went off, it meant there was someone in the yard outside, and my job was to sound a coronary-inducing siren into the yard and aim a massive spotlight, which I swear must've been robbed from a police helicopter, straight at the scallies until they legged it. We even managed to get hold of a few more of these spotlights, and rig them up to some old nightclub lighting kit, so this previously pitch-black yard was suddenly floodlit in massive sweeping prison-escape style spotlights, with me holding one spotlight aiming straight at the pikey cunts.

They didn't half shift when that happened!


At the moment, I get paid to sit around on my arse all day doing absolutely shite all. And I didn't even have to get a PhD either.
