What would your job at Glastonbury be?

[moogster]

So we are all obviously ready to book stages at Glastonbury and replace Emily & Nick, looking at the discussions here.

But if somehow Glastonbury Festival would hire you (as in not as a volunteer, but as a paid worker, or at least some sort of overseeing volunteer manager), where would you fit best?

I've seen people mention their day job / special interests here quite a bit so could see some matches...

Would have to be something council facing based like organising travel / fighting council in the off-season

Nice because i could enjoy the festival while its on!

Interesting topic

Yes please. Get rid of those pages without content that annoy me in the slow season.

Also leave me free to enjoy the festival and I reckon I could inject some more excitement into announcements just because I get very excited 😄

I'd probably be master-minding some obscure organisational point, eyes on multiple screen and spreadsheets. Loo clean ups, power or something like that. A year of careful planning and a week of of firefighting without seeing one band.

Or you could pretend there's an update happening, creating some URLs etc and then laugh at people making theories about what's coming (.../harry-styles-headliner.com or something like that)

I would most certainly have fun with that. Hide clues in bin paintings or pretend I have 😄

In the healing fields, delivering one-off sessions of hypnotherapy. A single session can feel as resting as an 8-hour sleep, which I imagine a lot of punters could make use of!

[maelzoid]

I'd design the festival programme.

[Florian Saucer Attack]

I'd be the trumpeter to sound the alarm that Michael is about to open the gate on the Wednesday morning and then be free the rest of the festival

Could you sort the god-awful merch while you're at it?

I was thinking of being a pre-taster for the food traders. Food quality assurance manager.

Would love to curate a night on one of the stages in the South East corner. Something like the Gas Tower.
