How the hell did they *advertise* the quail position?

"Observer needed. Be out in nature in the wild, amongst the animals. Watch quail fuck. Write it down. And then come back and tell us about it.." I mean, was it an hourly position? Were there benefits?

It was a job I took as part of my degree requirement. Every psych student had to be a slave to one of the profs in whatever crazy project they were working on. I found the guy who was studying stimulus response in Japanese quail, and said "do I have to disect them?" He said no, so I took the job. And spend a semester recording what made quails horny. (answer: other quails) I think I got an A in the class.
