9. Pet Detective (Ace Ventura: Pet Detective Franchise)
Many people dream of joining the police force for the chance to protect their community and eat more donuts than Chief Wiggum after a month long fast, but being a cop isn't all it's cracked up to be. Long hours, corruption, bullets flying at you... forget the police. Be a Pet Detective instead. Ace Ventura may have been the laughing stock of the police at first, but armed with only a quiff, a Hawaiian t-shirt and his vast knowledge of the animal kingdom, the Pet Detective ended up having the last laugh, solving crimes the regular police force just couldn't handle. As a Pet Detective, your primary job is the retrieval of tame or captured animals, but the title seems to give you free reign to basically get away with anything you want. In the sequel When Nature Calls, Ventura became outraged by a socialite and her attitude towards wearing fur, so what does the Pet Detective do? Ventura knocks out her old, rich husband and wears him around his neck like a fur coat. Think the cops in Die Hard would be allowed to do that without being punished? Think again. Pet Detectives may make less money than regular police officers, but why would you want to drive a cop car when you could just hop on the back of an elephant?... "Alrighty then!"
