Odd and Even Odder Jobs
Norwegian title: Rare og veldig rare jobber
A book of fun facts about really odd jobs that you’ll never believe exist.
Most children wonder what they’ll be when they grow up. Who doesn’t dream of being a footballer or a popstar? Or maybe a firefighter, a doctor, a hairdresser or a lawyer? But why do the same thing as everyone else? Why not do something completely different? How about being a dinosaur-duster, a snake-milker or an armpit-sniffer?
In Odd and Even Odder Jobs, Bjørn F. Rørvik has come up with more than 50 professions that you probably never knew existed. There’s plenty of fun and peculiar stuff, and some of the jobs sound really unlikely. But all of them are absolutely real – and all of them need to be done!
