FREIHEIT, Texas - Have Nose. Will Travel. That sums up Barbara Emmerson's job. She's one of two so-called Nasal Rangers at the Comal County, Texas, Landfill.
They stop at specific locations and take a big whiff.
The Nasal Rangers are part of an effort to control yucky odors emanating from the landfill.
They say it can be a little embarrassing when they tell others about the unusual job.
The Rangers have office duties at the landfill as well. But Emmerson says sticking her nose in the air is the satisfying part of the work. She says she wants to help the dump be a better neighbor.
