Remember when Li’l Abner had a job as mattress tester?

There must be a misunderstanding.

Doesn’t the ticking make you sleepy?

So funny!

Sounds like a dream job.

Still funny, considering this one had long whiskers when my dad was a boy in the early 1900’s.

Pillow guy in his early years.

Did you also bring your bunny slippers ?

One of my night jobs in a hospital was counting pills. Discovered that it is possible to go to sleep standing up. Woke up as I started to fall over and saw the wall moving. Thought it was an earthquake. Scared me so much that I was awake the rest of the shift.

Well, if the woke crowd get their way – you can do that and still make as much as a physician!

That job won’t last long! Just wait until he wakes to find the place empty.

’LIVING THE DREAM

That’s “night watchman”, not “quality control”.

A man can dream.

It’s a “bring your own pillow” type of job.

Now I know where the phrase ‘cushy job’ came from…

It’s a good job to have. You’ve always got something to fall back on.
