'Professional sleeper': 20+ jobs that pay you to do literally nothing

Some people have dream jobs of running their own businesses or being extremely successful; others just want to do nothing for a living. It's not a crazy idea in this day and age. I mean, there are certainly people high up in the world who collect tons of money but have everyone else at their company do all the work. Why can't we lower-level employees aspire to be like this?

You may consider this to be a lazy goal; we consider it to be ambitious. After all, there are not that many well-paying jobs that offer this kind of flexibility to do absolutely nothing. You can try to quiet quit in your current job, but at the end of the day, you still have daily tasks you need to complete. Even folks who pretend they are quiet quitters are not actually quiet quitters. They are still meeting all of their goals and are probably meeting them well.

The reality is that those of us who are genuinely looking to do nothing but watch television on company time do not have very many options. Thankfully, these folks shared their insight as to what these kinds of jobs actually are via this r/AskReddit thread. Keep scrolling below and have a look for yourself.
