Drying Paint Watcher

You might find it odd and weird, but this job truly exists — some people really are being paid to watch paint dry. Yes, some people earn enough money to feed their family by just watching those white lines on the street to dry up and become ready for use.

In fact, there is a man in the United Kingdom that gets paid to paint sheets of cardboard and see how fast the paint mixtures dry up. He does this kind of test in all types of conditions so he can determine how the paint will turn out in different situations. To do this job, It will help to have patience — you’ll be watching paint dry, after all. You will monitor various test subjects over time, and a lot of people just don’t have the patience to deal with those kinds of things.
