Noé and Élodie Rocq are among the seasonal workers taking on unusual jobs for the summer months, according to a report by TF1info. While seasonal employment often suggests traditional roles, less common positions include blacksmiths and lock keepers.
Seasonal blacksmith and lock keeper roles
Noé works as a painter and sculptor during the rest of the year, but he becomes a blacksmith throughout the summer season. He discovered the craft of blacksmithing last April, describing the experience as a revelation.
Élodie Rocq, a former museum director, changed her life three years ago. She raises sheep during the winter months. In the summer, she becomes a lock keeper and operates a brush cutter to maintain the area surrounding her lock.
