Where was this job option on career days at school??

[FuzzyKitten99]

DH just told me about the a delivery he made today at the product testing facility that 3M has to test their industrial grade road construction materials like the reflective sheeting and barrels and cones, etc. Yes, they do make those.

Anyway, 3M has a stretch of mock-highway that they set up all their test stuff on, and a guy gets paid -I repeat GETS PAID- to take a car and hit the equipment on purpose and then get out and mark the results.

I. WANT. THAT. JOB!!!!! Get paid to run over stuff as hard as you can and at high speeds. :D

[lordlundar]

Look up "destructive testing", you'll find all sorts of fun stuff.:devil:

[Soulstealer]

If you do manage to get an interview try to supress the urge to giggle manically, I doubt they want their workers to be that happy about the job.

I want the job of testing aircraft windshields against bird strikes. If you don't know how they test em Mythbusters has a show on how they do it :D

But yeah there was so many jobs they didn't have on career day that are a little more unrare. Like being a person that implodes buildings. I mean hell I used to destroy matchbox cars growing up on a regular basis. Had I known I could get paid to do it I wouldn't be where I am now. :p

I know that I would feel immense satisfaction and great daily stress relief in that kind of job.

Seriously. I would be so good at it. Would the time I hit a mailbox count as "Experience" for my resume? ;)

I live here in the home of the Hummer (guys, get your minds out of the gutter -- pervs! :roll: ) and a friend of mine used to date the guy who gets to teach the way-too-rich-for-their-own-good nincompoops who buy the monsters how to drive them.

He takes them out on a dirt track and they go up to the lake and drive on the lake shore. The funniest part of it, is that the owners fly to the place on the lake and the Hummers go on a truck (hey! I warned you one time! Sickos!)

There are SO many jobs that you don't get in the career fairs.

Like, any job ever featured on Discovery Channel in some form. Seriously, where do I sign up to get to build crazy stuff or play with guns or blow stuff up. Well, besides the army.

My husband would love to do that too, but they wouldn't take him because of his partial hearing imparement.

[Killer Bees]

I would LOVE a job where I get blow shit up! That would be awesome! :D

[Rapscallion]

Should imagine that it would be messy if taken literarlly.

On one hand: 'WHERE DO I SIGN UP?!'

On the other hand: 'Yeah, your condoms failed the test. I'm suing your company for child support, assholes.'

I'd like to say in advance--I'm truly sorry for doing this to you:

[Before clicking, I'd like you to know three things:
1) It's nothing personal, I did this because you asked.
2) There are not dirty pictures in the link, just words.
3) Remember: what has been seen cannot be unseen.]

Definition one is the dirty one, definition two is the one that sportsmom is "home" to.

Please don't hate me for doing that.
