 Today’s labor quote is from an article in the March 1936 edition of the magazine Popular Science, which listed what it termed “the world’s craziest jobs.”
All of the jobs were in Hollywood and included the following: Horse-tail painter (to make the tails stand out better in the movies); bone-bleacher (for animal skeletons in Westerns); and chorus-girl weigher, whose function the article did not make terribly clear. photo: Busby Berkeley weighing chorus girls. photo courtesy resurrectingthechorusgirl, which has some interesting observations about the reality of the working lives of chorus girls.
