The Weirdest Jobs In The White House

The White House employs several calligraphers just to handwrite special invitations.

That’s right, not only are there at least two calligraphers on the White House staff (one makes about $94,000 annually and the other has a salary of $72,800), but they have a boss—the Chief Calligrapher. Currently, that role pays $99,400. While it might sound like a breezy gig involving fancy handwriting, the Chief Calligrapher is responsible for the design and execution of both social and official White House documents.
