We have all been there... you're on a long train journey or waiting in a queue and instead of turning to small talk with the stranger beside you, you turn to TikTok. But what if, instead of sucking hours out of our day endlessly scrolling through videos, you could be paid for the privilege?
Influencer marketing group Ubiquitous is on the search for a professional TikTok watcher. The job asks for someone to watch 12 hours of TikTok over a three-day period.
Alongside a wage of $50 an hour (roughly £44.20), Ubiquitous will also send a £44.20 Uber Eats gift card and a £44.20 Target gift card, (or UK equivalents such as Deliveroo or Tesco gift cards, should the winner be based in the UK) to help you plough through your shift. The welcome pack will also include a phone holder and ring light to make scrolling through that bit more comfortable.

All the lucky candidate needs to do in return is simply watch TikToks as they usually would and then re-post their favourites on Instagram or Twitter and tag Ubiquitous. Once your binge is complete, you'll be asked to rank your top 10 favourite videos and then go on your merry way.
Jeremy Boudinet of Ubiquitous said: "Absolutely anyone can apply as long as they have an account on the app. We’re not looking for an expert or a TikTok connoisseur, we’re just looking for someone who uses the app fairly frequently and has an active social media presence of their own."
If you think this is the perfect position for you, apply before the deadline on October 31. Applicants must be over 18 and fill in a form, found on the Ubiquitous website, which includes 100 to 200 words making their case. Ubiquitous says they're looking for fun and friendly personalities who love TikTok, social media, and have an active online presence.
