I loved to mention of the koala keeper. Koala's sleep 23 out of 24 hours. Almost as cush a job as ferrier for the Detroit Water and Sewer Commission.
A ferrier is a horse shoer. And yes DW&S has one on staff, even though they have no horses. It's a union job. "Surprise, surprise, surprise" as Gomer would say.

Pedantic nitpick alert.
A 'farrier' is a horse-shoer; a 'ferrier' would drive a boat, I think.
