"Rather than being surrounded by office supplies and computers all day, I have piles of kinky toys to play with. I'm not a sex addict. I'm representing normal girls who, like me, also need to buy these toys. Sex toys aren't taboo any more. Single girls and couples should know how much toys can enrich their lives. It's my job to find ones that are good for single girls, couples and usable for people of all ages. I rate the toys and file weekly reports. I saw the job ad online and initially applied for a laugh. I'm sure some people think it's smutty to test these toys for a living but that's not the case. My family and friends all know what I do for a job. My friends think I have the best job in the world and I think it is perfect. My job is fun, different and fulfils my needs. I couldn't ask for more."
