Ideal for: those blessed with a more “unique”
physique ( remember two heads are better than one!! )
Job specification: Okay, so you don’t exactly look like other people. Turn
it into an advantage and join the circus—where you can officially become
part of the act! All you have to do is sit in a stage and let people stare
at you. You may be asked to wear a stupid costume, but at least (unlike
other members of the troop) you do not have to put your head into the mouths
of wild animals.
Drawbacks: It’s no fun being stared at, and though you’re essentially the
star of the show, the profits go to other pockets while you get stuck with
cold, and often meager, rations. You can go to different places, but are
pretty much tied to the circus grounds—sometimes literally.
Perks: It’s a relatively low-stress job, with very minimal education
background required (just being you is enough). Gain a big enough following
and you have top billing—right there with the elephants, and the dancing
bear.
