I feel the same way about professional darts players as professional games, which is the profession my son aspires to.
I'm thinking more about the person, and this is entirely made up, who has found a use for pencil shavings and makes a great living at it. It seems that there are so many hidden little professions and it amazes me.
Here is one I just thought of. I did some computer work for a company that sent employees all over the US to clean the condensers on Wal-Mart stores. All of the cooling systems have the condensers on the roofs of the stores. So someone recognized a need for this, approached Wal-Mart about it, and now has a multi-million dollar business doing it!

There's a fella at Blackpool Illuminations dept. who spends all day, every day, just plugging lightbulbs into a test board to see if they work.
They used to re-use the bulbs every year which of course meant they all had to be tested again, but with modern LED technology and the banning of incandescents it's now cheaper to throw them away and start from scratch (they re-use the LEDs). They still all need testing though.

Is that another name for it? Seems appropriate.
