As news site yahoo.co.uk reports, files recently released by the National Archives find that a job description for a UFO officer was written shortly before the Ministry of Defence (MoD) closed its UFO desk in November 2009.
The role was usually taken up by junior (read unlucky?) civil servants whose duties included briefing on the MoD’s positions on UFOs and extraterrestrial life, and handling press enquiries.Yahoo also notes that one recent officer found himself briefing then-Prime Minister Tony Blair on UFO policy.
Recruiter became aware of another unusual job recently, that of Zombie. These came at the Zombie Manor House Experience in Warrington, advertised for by activities and experiences site Wish.co.uk.
Applicants were to be assessed on “their ability to look, walk and groan like a zombie”. The job specification continued: “Previous experience as the walking dead isn’t essential.”
And which jobsite was seen as the most appropriate to advertise for Zombies? Why Monster, of course!
