what are the best NON-finance UN-jobs you can think of?

So what are the best unusual UN-jobs (non-desk-jobs) you can think of? I worked for a while as a banker at a casino in California. Now THAT was a great job! Why I quit to get into real estate, I'll never know. A buddy of mine graduated with a high GPA at a target, and went into the Secret Service. That's a great UN-job. Another contact was in Navy intel. Won't say what he did, but it's awesome. Anyone else got any good UN-jobs? I just can't imagine more time spent jockeying a laptop, so I swear, I'll just add one more real estate asset to my balance sheet and I'm going AWOL.

Why are you calling them "un-jobs?" They're still jobs.

Anyway, being a pilot would be pretty sweet.
