Answer the following questions in your own words:

Hore "other types of jobs" refers to the jobs that are not conventional and liked by most people, rather challenging and funny or odd or crazy or wacky.

Among the mentioned four particular strange and weird jobs, farming oysters in the middle of the ocean seems to be most weird to me. Because it is challenging and risky to farm and collect oysters in the ocean.

I think picking up the chewing gums left on a park bench is rather a funny job. Anybody can enjoy it. And if it pays. I think it is fine.

An odd job allows some advantages such as working part-time or freelance, getting freedom, secondary income, building experience, etc.

To choose an unusual form of employment, we have to think about several matters such as recruiting company, good wages, type of education, etc.

Part-time odd jobs have a number of benefits. They can give us a taste of freedom, can be a source of secondary income and can help us build experience at the same time.

Our right choices and important decisions will help us go ahead.

Weird jobs are those that most people wouldn't think of while choosing a career path.

Most of the people of the society have a traditional view regarding a job. They do not prefer an unconventional job as they are funny, wacky, challenging, cool even weird. They desire for a job which is high profile with a handsome salary.

Our answer to the following questions will assist us to plan our career roadmap :

• What companies will recruit/ hire us?
• Do we actually make a paycheck?
• What type of education/ diploma will we need?
• Can we make a living doing this?

Most people like highly paid and high profile conventional jobs.

Five odd jobs that have been mentioned in the passage are constructing glass eyeballs, farming oysters in the middle of the ocean, stuffing animals, making model cars, saving sea turtles.

It is an accepted view of society that a desirable job must be high profile one with handsome salary and long established. But an odd or strange job doesn't have any of these qualities. They are funny, wacky, challenging, cool even weird. For this, people prefer a conventional job rather than an unconventional one.
