Have you ever heard of the prayer service at the cemetery? Do not be surprised, because this can be found in the capital. In Jakarta alone, we can meet the grave prayer services at the cemetery in the Central Jakarta area.
These service vendors, often encountered during the big days of Muslims, such as the Eid al-Fitr, during which pilgrims flock to visit their dead relatives. But apparently not all come and pray, some come and ask for the services of prayers to pray for it.
It was revealed by the doer of prayer, Romdhani. He reveals often asked for help to recite the prayers of the tombs.

"Sometimes if the term is Pak Haji, he also once asked so (read prayer) .It is impossible not to read prayers, that Pak Haji so," he said.
"So this is usually the reason people use the services of prayer is usually because he can not read prayers, or because he can read prayers but the time did not have time, so someone came to the tomb just to meet me to pray, he said 'I believe with Pak Ustadz'.He usually rush it there is another matter, "he concluded.
2. Hired girlfriend services

Hangover Helpers is a service to serve people drunk. Starting from preparing breakfast after the client wakes up, to clean up the messy party place.
Hangover was not free, this business membandrol cost is quite cheap, ie only Rp. 220,000 per person. But in Indonesia itself, it seems not yet able to glance. Though it seems to be selling hard, considering the Indonesian people are not a few who are fond of drunk.
4. Services to make a letter of absence from school
It seems that this service is one of the many hunted services most hunted, especially the students at school. Why not, with a letter of absence from school, you can free the lessons that took place then.
Perhaps your friend or your own once asked to be made a letter for not attending school to be free from alpha. But often teachers are also suspicious about the practice of fake licenses that are usually written by the perpetrator himself or ask his friend for help.

Only by paying Rp 325.000 only, we can already have a license as needed, such as a letter from the doctor, the hospital, to be a witness though.

Who suspects that dog shit is capable of generating money coffers? The pioneer is Matthew Osborn, who takes care of the Pooper-Scooper.com web. In this business, he provides services to clean up dog poop.
Osborn started it in 1987, when he opened Pet Butler in Columbus, Ohio. At that time, Osborn worked two full-time jobs and earned less than $ 6 per hour on each job. He never knew that this business would one day make him a millionaire.
Beginning the business, the man with two children is aware that there are about 100,000 dogs in an area 15 miles around his home. Business is slowly being lived, and although the job is 'dirty', Osborn says he enjoys working outdoors in some of the best back yard in Ohio.
