Dream Job pt. 2

As you may recall in my "The Job of Your Dreams" entry, I came to the conclusion that the best job ever would be to be that person that writes product descriptions for Sky Mall. However, I have since come up with an easier, better job than that....
I definitely now aspire to be on the cast of MTV's not-so-hit afternoon game show "Silent Library." If you are unaware of what the show is, I suggest you watch on episode on the channel's website. Basically the show has six contestants, usually a group of guy friends, who complete ridiculous tasks in a "library." This sounds simple enough, but while one person is completing the task, his friends must remain as silent as possible, or they risk losing the prize money awarded for that task. To make the show more realistic, the producers decided to hire a cast of "library-goers." These actors simply sit around on the set, looking rather ordinary, reading books. When the contestants are too loud, the camera pans to these actors who obviously make a very annoyed face.

Who knows how much these people get paid, but honestly, who wouldn't want to get paid to wear Goodwill looking clothes and make annoyed faces?! You could probably actually catch up on your reading during the filming of this show and no one knows your name, so you have no reason to be embarrassed. If you are worried about struggling in school, failing your finals, or finding a job after graduation, I definitely suggest saving your money, dropping out of school now, and filling out an application for this dream job.
