Furniture Tester

Some companies hire people to sit, lie, bounce, and even wrestle with furniture to test durability and comfort. The job sounds cozy until you realize it’s repetitive, involves odd positions, and often includes heavy lifting followed by… more sitting.

At first, getting paid to chill on couches sounds like the dream. But after your 70th “bounce test” in a sweaty factory setting, it becomes more like a soft-core workout than luxury. And when coworkers start nicknaming you “Chair Whisperer,” you know it’s gone too far.
