Funny job that pays well

Don't laugh yet if you think old people with odd jobs is funny think again dudes!

Keith Jackson admits his job is seen as a bit of a joke and can be slightly tedious at times, but the 57-year-old has never tired of the task.

"People do laugh and find it amusing when I tell them what I do,' Mr Jackson said yesterday.

"It could be described as the most boring job in the world, but it is a very important one.

"We supply paint to a variety of industries and for our customers it is very important that they can cover their products with paint that dries quickly.

"For example, we make the paint for the floors and walls of stations for the London Underground.

"They can't afford to shut to passengers for long periods so the painting can only be done between 3am and 5am.

"Once the paint is on the floor it has to dry hard and fast enough for people to be able to walk on in time for when the station re-opens in the morning."

Mr Jackson refused to reveal exactly how much he earned, but said watching paint dry paid "fairly well."

Get paid for watching paint dries!!! It's like getting paid by blogging.
