YOU could get paid up to £144,000 in this little-known job that doesn’t require a degree – but don’t fall asleep on shift.
The job of an official bed warmer is leaving people mind-blown after discovering the massive payslip it comes with.
The average salaries for this comfy role range but have reportedly hit up to £144,000 a year.
If you have a warm body and love to lounge in bed, warming beds sounds like a dream.
An official bed warmer may strike you as a bizarre career choice, and may even leave you wondering why someone would splash the cash for the service considering hot water bottles and electric blankets cost far less.
Some people are just willing to fork out hundreds of thousands of pounds to have someone lay in their bed and make it toasty.
But the salaries are dependant on the location, company and experience of the bed warmer.
This isn’t the only bizarre job out there though.
One man revealed how he once worked as a dog food taster for a pet food comapny.
Although it is a unique career, Philip Wells said it can actually be very rewarding.
He told The Guardian: “Although dogs’ palates are different to ours, taste is an important quality check to ensure each different ingredient is perfectly balanced in just the right way.”
The positions often pay an entry-level salary of around £20,000, but if you have a taste for what dogs enjoy, you could earn up to £50,000.
And head-hunters revealed a job where you can earn £90,000 with no qualifications – but there’s a catch.
A casino gaming manager can earn a whopping £90,000 a year, far more than a commercial pilot, army officer or software developer.
The Little Vegas casinos in Croydon, London and Maidstone, Kent are currently advertising on Indeed for assistant managers paid £28,000, as are Flutter Entertainment in Leeds and Mecca Bingo in Sheffield (salaries not disclosed).
But the high-earning job comes with a catch which puts off many potential applicants.
Gaming managers are salaried employees of casinos, which are usually open 24/7 all year round.
That means they will often have to work nights, weekends and even public holidays like Christmas.
And if casino management isn’t your cup of tea, here’s a job you’ve probably never heard of that pays £61,000 a year – and you don’t need a degree.
A chief listening officer monitors what people are saying about your company on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, TikTok and Pinterest.
The officer has to keep an eye out for any complaints customers make about their experience with the company – so the problem can be resolved before word spreads.
Insurance firm Unum says that chief listening officers can earn a whopping £61,000 per year.
