Photographer Nancy Rica Schiff has spent her time hunting down the world's weirdest jobs.
She has spent more than 15 years snapping wacky occupations, producing two books from her images - Odd Jobs and Odder Jobs.
Her pictures include an odour judge, fish counter, condom tester, mermaid, dinosaur duster and crisp inspector.

Nancy, who is based in New York and Florence, Italy says she has always been fascinated by unusual employment.
The book's inspiration came from an odd-looking fellow at the Hollywood Race Track whose job it was to time the horse races," she said.
"Thinking up other odd jobs came from research, word-of-mouth and luck.
"As it was a personal project not funded by anyone else I tracked down odd jobs all over the USA staying with friends and grouping odd jobs in cities together.
"Many of the jobs were chosen with a twist of humour.
"Of all the jobs I photographed, I would love to do the Mermaid one as I am a swimmer myself.
