Stacking bowling, catching mice or listening to enemy planes are no longer available, due to the development of technology.
1. Bottle bowling
People who work in this field are usually boys, rented by bowling alleys for customers.
2. Alarm
These people are responsible for helping people wake up to work on time. The tools they use are usually sticks, baton or small gravel to knock on customers' windows and doors.
3. Cut the stone
Before refrigerators became popular, stone cutters were responsible for finding and cutting tapes from glaciers for all users. This is a dangerous job because it often requires working under extreme weather.
4. Listen to the enemy aircraft
Before the radar was born, the military often used such sound convergence devices to detect the sound of enemy aircraft engines.
5. Catch the mouse
This profession is very popular in European countries, to control the number of rodents. People in the industry are at risk of infection, but they do not spread the disease to the community.
6. Light the lamp
These people use long sticks to light, blow off and change the oil lamp posts, until the electric lights appear.
7. Transporting timber
Before technology and infrastructure developed like today, wood is not transported by truck. Instead, those who work in this field will control the wood to float along the river to the place of production.
8. Transfer calls
Today's technology can take the place of traditional operators. Operations such as connecting long distance calls will not need real people as before.
9. Digging dead bodies
In the 19th century, these people were responsible for digging dead bodies for many universities to do research and teaching duties. The bodies are legally donated very little, so schools must take all measures to get to students.
10. Entertainment for workers
Understanding in a broad sense, the profession of these people is simply reading stories. However, they are often hired to read stories to manual workers to help relax their minds. Sometimes, they even read union documents.
