Finally, jobs for the creative class, wherein the qualification is the ability to produce body temperature. Let's build the convention center hotel after all.

Finally...A job that need nothing but a warm body. Now CEOs can actually accomplish something!

I love how one of the other suggested services is "reader", where staffers read to their guests at night. No, there's no correlation between extreme wealth and arrested development, is there?

Not to worry, Kathe - I'm sure in the US we'll automate the process, and figure out how to charge $10 for the service.

The bedding in most hotels is bad enough. Why would you want to add the head lice, scabies, ticks, dander, pimple excudate, anal leakage, urine drops, and hair of a total stranger to "help you sleep" Double eeewww from this reader!
