As a freelance writer searching for new opportunities, I never know what hidden value I am going to discover. I have already covered "curator" as a 21st century upscale career path. Today I discovered "remote viewing" opportunities. Like me, you may already be associating concepts like Peeping Tom, CIA Operative, or a Reviewer of YouTube clips with this opportunity. Like me, you'd be totally off base. Here is what the requester was actually seeking:
This position requires someone who is fluent in Remote Viewing and able to determine current targets.
The interview will consist of you being randomly assigned a Target and
you will need to demonstrate your proficiency in correctly documenting
the details of the event
Given the news we have been hearing lately about UMV strikes against terrorist leaders, my thoughts focused on "current targets" and "correctly documenting the details of the event" but I dismissed those thoughts because I was searching a site dedicated to freelance writers not drone operators or mercenaries.
To get a handle on the hidden value in this new opportunity I turned to Wikipedia. As usual, Wiki had the information I needed:
Remote viewing (RV) is the practice of seeking impressions about a distant or unseen target using subjective means, in particular, extra-sensory perception (ESP) or "sensing with mind".
Typically a remote viewer is expected to give information about an
object, event, person or location that is hidden from physical view and
separated at some distance. The term was coined in the 1970s by physicists Russell Targ and Harold Puthoff, parapsychology researchers at Stanford Research Institute, to distinguish it from clairvoyance.
If I actually had any RV ability, there was someone out there willing to pay me for a demonstration. The freelance writing opportunity was to document the details of each demonstration. But that is not the hidden value in this opportunity. The hidden value lies in the personal and unique nature of remote viewing. It cannot be outsourced, it has financial value that does not need Union Protection, and it brings entitlements that no Government agency controls.
