Lighthouse keeper! Brilliant. If monkey brains could do gigabit for me there I'd be in heaven.



I don't think there's any lighthouses left that require a keeper, at least in first world countries.


I think these are fantasies, it seems a little mean to burst them with reality.


There's at least one left in the US that requires a keeper by law: http://in.mobile.reuters.com/article/idINN0741330520080526?i... Other than that, there are a bunch of lighthouses that have some sort of guesthouse in them and need someone to run it (usually decent pay but not a quiet job), or volunteer positions to maintain lighthouses around the Great Lakes and possibly elsewhere.
