Unusual Jobs That Actually Pay Well

13. Pet Food Tester

Just in case you’re wondering, this isn’t a person who eats food for important dogs that might be targeted for assassination. No, pet food tasters assist in the process of creating and producing pet food.

Of course such companies rely on the input of actual animals, but unfortunately, our furry friends can’t actually put their feelings into words. So humans have to test the food to truly get a sense of what it tastes like, and to make sure that the food includes all of the ingredients it’s supposed to.

It may not be glamorous work, but it can earn you around $40,000 a year if you can land a full-time job in the industry.
