CareerBuilder.com has released a new survey of unusual (and fun) jobs. With so many serious issues in today’s turbulent economy, it seems a break from the norm is in order. For the top results from 8,700 workers reporting unconventional jobs held during their career go to http://tinyurl.com/6fyx4y to check out the full list from A to Z.

These are my favourites:

• Cat Nanny
• Elf at Santa’s Workshop
• Quality control/taster for chocolate factory

And these are my not so favourites:

• Autopsy Assistant
• Grave Digger
• Parachute Tester
• Yawn counter at a sleep clinic
