Let's see you put this one on a resume, eh?

Teenager Svein Tore Hauge must have one of Norway's strangest summer jobs. The 14-year-old will be earning money following cattle around with a pan, collecting cow flop for research.

I just have to wait until they do it. Once I sat an hour and a half with one, waiting. But there are 21 cows in the project, so I can go to the one that's ready to crap. Sometimes it just sprays in all directions. The consistency varies from cow to cow. It's important to note things like this, so that I can run away if I need to.

Call this an exercise in perspective if you will. No matter how bad things get, you do not have to chase a cow around with a pan. I'll try to keep that in mind today when I begin to become frustrated with my job. (Today's mantra: "No, I do NOT have to chase defecating cows with a pan.")

Trust me; you do NOT want this job...
