odd job

I was driving to class the other day, listening to the radio, and thought to myself.... traffic reporter, what an odd job. What kind of kid wants to do that? Wake up at the crack of dawn, hop in a chopper or truck, take off and talk for like 15 seconds every 20 min every weekday morning. And another thing, does the guy in the truck coast through this traffic or is he contributing it? Think about it.
