21 Jobs Your Guidance Counselor Didn't Mention

(YouTube link)

What do you want to be when you grow up? There’s a lot more occupations to select from than there once were, even if there are fewer jobs available overall. Maybe the lack of jobs has something to do with the more unusual new jobs that have sprung up, because so many more people are self-employed and using their imagination to fulfill a need that one can be paid for. John Green explains some of the jobs you don’t normally hear about on this week’s episode of the mental_floss List Show.


When job interviewers ask "where do you see yourself in five years?", I am always tempted to point out that the things that I am doing now were not invented five years ago.

Perhaps an appropriate answer would be: "I think I will be working in the new field of Teleportation Bandwidth Management by then."
