#CA1 Unusual Occupation

Unusual Occupation

There are some people in Singapore that hold unusual occupation to earn a living. Not only that these jobs are unique but some of them are well paid jobs. Unusual in my definition is something that is not common and weird. Hence one such job that i have found (http://mustsharenews.com/unusual-jobs-in-singapore/) is a   Lego Certified Professional . These people are not employees of Lego, but they are trusted business partners that have the right to sell their products and servies as Lego master artists.

According to Yahoo Style, post written by Fann Sim on December 6 2012, there is only 13 such Lego professionals in the world. One of which is no other than Nicholas Foo, a 36 year old Singaporean. He is the only full-time artist as a Lego Professional in Singapore as well as in Asia.

He started being intrigued with the colourful blocks when he received his first Lego set at the age of eight. It all started when he had build a bear with a hidden tummy compartment out of lego for his friend. After he posted a picture of the lego, it became a hit and thus led to his decision to make his hobby his full-time profession.

 

I find this occupation unusual as it something that not common here in Singapore as he is the only one holding the title here and it is also very unique. This is something that i might try undertake in the future if things do go my way. This is because i find that these jobs allows’ one to express their creativity and call the product theirs. If also it gives a huge amount of profit why not. This also allow people from all over the world to be able to buy these products and build it for themselves according to the instruction manual given.
