Cultural relic beautician in the Forbidden City, shepherd in rainy days, glacier guide, air traffic controller, animal health nutritionist, church designer, tea mixer, etc.

1. The beautician of the Forbidden City cultural relics

The beautician of the Forbidden City cultural relics does not want to make up the cultural relics of the Forbidden City, but to repair the damaged cultural relics. The restoration work is more behind the scenes, which is not only a handicraft, but also a science.

The restoration techniques of traditional cultural relics preserved in the Forbidden City include Gu Shuhua's mounting restoration, the restoration and reproduction of bronzes, Gu Shuhua's copying and reproduction, the restoration and reproduction of wooden cultural relics, the restoration of textile cultural relics, the restoration of lacquerware cultural relics, the restoration of treasure inlaid cultural relics, the restoration of ancient clocks and watches, the production and restoration of cultural relics boxes, and the restoration techniques of ancient ceramics.

2. "Shepherd" on rainy days

In Australia, there is a job where they "stroll" over the vast pasture by helicopter. Because there are so many sheep in Australia, after the rain, the wool will become very heavy when it gets wet, and they will fall on the grass and can't stand up. At this time, when the "shepherd" saw the fallen sheep on the helicopter, he informed his working partners on the ground in time, helped them up and patted the rain on the sheep, so that it was done.

3. Glacier guide

As the name implies, a glacier guide is a person who leads tourists to appreciate the beauty of glaciers. Their transportation to work is a helicopter. They can get close to glaciers or enter blue ice caves. The scenery they see every day is different, but they are all beautiful. Glaciers are all very high above sea level, and they can only go up by helicopter. Therefore, as a guide, it is important not only to be responsible for guiding the way, but also to protect the safety of guests.

4. Air traffic controllers

Their job is to monitor and control the distance between planes through radar and ground-to-air communication, and they should not be allowed to collide. In professional terms, it is just an interval, because "so-called distance" includes not only front and back, but also up and down. Therefore, the work of "traffic police" in the air is much more complicated than that of "traffic police" on land.

5. Animal health nutritionists

They have to prepare many "animal feed formulas" every day, from chickens, ducks and geese to pigs, cows and sheep to cats and dogs. From the northeast to Hainan, from China to the United States, from the northern hemisphere to the southern hemisphere, they can be found wherever there are farms. Every month, they go to the farm to do a survey, solve the problems of animals in a timely manner, and change the formula to treat them.

6. Church designer

A church designer is a freelancer. Because this profession needs a lot of historical knowledge as a support, as well as understanding the humanistic and religious backgrounds of various countries, it is necessary to constantly visit and explore countries around the world to deeply understand local customs.

As a church designer, I can explain everything from Christian stories to Nordic myths, from South American tribes to modern civilized societies in Britain and America. See different scenery, listen to different people's stories, combine things close to people's lives with history and culture, and integrate them into church design.

7. Tea Mixer

Matching tea is a technical activity. Its origin can be traced back to the 17th century, when tea was just exported from China to Britain, and it was an extremely expensive luxury. After that, they began to mix various kinds of tea, and gradually developed into English tea with tea as the main ingredient. Therefore, a professional tea mixer appeared, and a formal tea mixer must go through at least five years of training.
