It's quite a lonely job. So, if there are any loners out there who seek complete loneliness they can try their hands at this weird job.
(b) Ice-Cream Taster: A sweet job! But it takes more than just tasting the ice-creams to get your pay in this job. There can be no compromise about the quality of the ice-cream, so one has to keep all the taste-buds on his tongue alive and active. This requires you to follow a strict diet, not eating anything too spicy or hot. You cannot smoke, drink, or even use strong perfumes!
(c) Sports Mascot: Getting dressed in an often silly-looking costume, entertaining thousands of screaming fans and shadow-punching umpires are all in a day's work for the sports mascot.
The term, mascot, or in this case, the sports mascot is used to describe a person, animal or object that is thought to bring luck.
