In 2021, Elon Musk unveiled Tesla Bot, a prototype for a humanoid robot that would eventually go by the name Optimus. Famously, there was no actual robot present, but rather a person in a suit pretending to be one. Now you can join in the action, while getting paid up to $48 an hour.

As spotted by Business Insider, Tesla is hiring individuals standing between 5’7 and 5’11 to carry up to 30 pounds for seven hours a day. The gig also requires wearing a motion capture suit and VR headset — and all the potential motion sickness that entails. Along with pay, you’ll get the pride of knowing you helped Optimus learn how to move like a human.
