I can’t help but feel that the person who wrote this headline had never met a Scottish person. Made me smile on a Monday.

  1. What a great idea! I’ve always dreamed of making money while pursuing my passion for knitting.

  2. “Why don’t I strap on my job helmet and squeeze down into a job cannon and fire off into Jobland where jobs grow on jobbies!”

  3. If my hobby was taking a shite, I would fulfil this headline’s prophecy!

  4. Yes, turning your hobby into a jobby is indeed a jobby idea.
    I’ve done it a couple of times, and you end up hating your hobby once it’s a jobby.

  5. Hmmm, this feels like when I started playing World of Warcraft in 2007 and I kept seeing people throwing the word “twink” around and was very confused at first. Like with “twink,” I don’t think this person here, picking this word, knows that “jobby” already exists as a word and has a different meaning…

  6. I’m in my 30s with ibs, going for a jobby is my hobby

  7. My hobby is baking cakes, which I distribute to friends and family who all turn them into jobbies. Does this mean I’m double winning? 

  8. having a jobby is my hobby so im already winning.

  9. No – my hobby is to make me happy, not make me money.

  10. Bad advice, you’ll end up hating the thing that gave you peace.

  11. I’ve been turning my job into the place I do my jobbies, is that close enough? Pooing on company time is sort of a hobby turned jobby.

  12. “You trendy students are always giving us a bad name!”

    “Oh, do you mean like ‘Big Jobbies’?”

  13. ‘I hope I get a JOBBY Freddy, I’ll keep my FINGers crooooossed. Croooooossed. Crooooooooossed.’

  14. I’m going to hazard a guess that this wasn’t written by a Scot

  15. Follow this one simple step to start hating your hobbies and losing the joy for something you once loved doing. I wish I could get paid for wanking then I probably wouldn’t do it so much

  16. Luckily my hobby is eating, so I’d be concerned if it didn’t turn into a hobby.

  17. Well my hobby is cooking, so this goes hand in hand already.

  18. I would like to be an alcohol taster, but I would surely drink the whole product, please find me help :’)

  19. Scottish people reading this headline 👀🤔🧐

  20. I could use a “jobby” right now if you know what I mean

  21. Reminds me of the classic Sun headline from the 90’s when a transgender copper won their job back

    “No nobby bobby wins back jobby”
