Get 2 years of "me time"

If you've always wanted to write that book, needed some time to think, want to really focus on your blog, or just don't like getting exposed to different people all the time, you should consider applying to this job.

Images The European Space Agency is looking for volunteer who will spend 520 days in isolation. This will allow them to test for the social implications of a space journey to Mars. Food will come from a bag – for nearly two years. 

The ESA has left out the real kicker. When you think you're done, they might just lock you up all over again. This time to simulate the trip back to earth.

But the overtime pay should be pretty sweet.
