Here's How To Apply For's 'Epic Dream Job' To Get Paid To Hit The Slopes

From a relatively young age, I always thought it'd be incredible to ski for a living. Unfortunately, there were a couple things holding me back. I mean, I definitely can't compete with Lindsay Vonn, and my thinner-than-ice patience kind of eliminates instructing as a potential career opportunity. My dream job came rushing back to me, when I saw that and Epic Pass teamed together to post the job opportunity of a lifetime. So, if you think you might be interested in skiing all winter long, here's how to apply for's "Epic Dream Job." It looks far out, man.

It sounds so cool, doesn't it?

On the other hand, maybe getting paid to enjoy your number-one winter sport isn't your vibe as much as getting paid to eat your favorite food is. That's cool, because you can actually get paid to eat avocados. The Hass Avocado Study, or the Habitual Diet and Avocado Trial will legitimately pay you a couple hundred dollars to eat a free avocado every day for six months. It's going to be held at Loma Linda University, and to apply, you'll fill out a survey on the study's website. If I were you, I'd apply now, because the study is getting super full. I mean, how could it not?

Getting paid to do what you truly love is a semi-foreign concept to many people, and the chance to get paid to ski around the world for two months is honestly amazing. TBH, I hope none of you apply, because I seriously need this Epic Dream Job. Let the games begin.
