Ever been busted for sleeping on the job? Here's one that pays you to sleep

A MARTINEZ, HOST:

Good morning. I'm A Martinez.

(Imitating yawn). Ever been busted for sleeping on the job? Well, here's a job that pays you to sleep. A brand of mattress is looking for part-timers to sleep in their stores.

It's MORNING EDITION. Transcript provided by NPR, Copyright NPR.
