I never would have believed it but BO has actually created some jobs that don't involve a Govt desk.
I may go apply.

Earn $17 per hour to hold a sign and shout at people
The election is months away, but Hecklegate is heating up. On Tuesday, Mitt Romney said "it would be a nice thing" if both sides called off their campaign-trail hecklers before jokingly referring to America's "long history of heckling." Now Buzzfeed reports that some Detroit-area Romney harassers are earning hourly wages to boo and hiss, which is typically considered cheating. Regardless, one woman admitted to making $7.25 per hour and a man said he got $17. (Lady, you should've held out for another $10.) One of the groups Buzzfeed approached was "organized by local Democrats"; the other was union-affiliated Good Jobs Now. A spokesperson for Good Jobs Now says they did not pay their representatives — that those people were just legitimately cranky.
