...then there's Frank the Dinosaur Duster at the Smithsonian Museum of Natural History in Washington, D.C.
"Five days a week in the early hours of the morning, he has the dinosaurs all to himself as he grooms them with a feather duster and a vacuum cleaner"
...and you may have come across a sniffer dog but...a Dog Sniffer?
"There are 700 dogs, mostly beagles, on site at Hill's Pet Nutrition in Topeka, Kansas. The odor of their breath is analyzed once a week in order to test the effect of their diet on their teeth. Hill's prides itself on making dog food that eliminates plaque build-up and fights gingivitis. Roxanne Livgren has been trained to sniff the dogs' breath to determine the state of their health and the effectiveness of the dog food"
and, not really strange but try pronouncing it..... Theriogenologist!
Lots more from Nancy Rica Schiff, a New York City-based photographer who crisscrossed the country looking for people with strange occupations in her spare time. When she found one that struck her fancy, she took a black-and-white portrait and some notes. After years of indulging her strange hobby, she put together her favorites in 'Odd Jobs: Portraits of Unusual Occupations.'
