Ideal for: Highly creative individuals with very
good eyesight (and is willing to lose it very quickly)
Job Specifications: Long before sewing machines were invented, hundreds of
poor women would huddle over long bales of cloth, creating whatever happened
to be the Frivolous Gown of the Moment. (Versace eat your heart out!!)
Drawbacks: The more intricate the embroidery, the better. The more
difficult the stitching, the more in demand. Meanwhile your fingers are
bleeding, your back hurts, and you’ll be blind and out of work by the time
you’re 30. The greatest irony is that you’ll never be able to afford the
gowns that you make, and even if you could, you’d never be invited to the
balls.
Perks: If your client really annoys you, you can adjust the seams and make
her look fat.
