Ridiculous Jobs Queen Elizabeth Actually Has Her Staff Do

Queen Elizabeth II employs an astonishing 1,200 people just to keep the Royal Household running. The positions held by her staffers vary from cooks to chauffeurs, but as it turns out, quite a few people on the payroll are doing jobs that seem, well, delightfully bizarre.

The Master of the Horse position goes way back to the year 1340, according to Horse & Hound. While this position would have been of importance in centuries past, today the job is an honorary one. The outlet explained,

"The Master is no longer involved with the day-to-day running of [the royal stables] but still makes inspections and rides in ceremonial uniform at state occasions."

In 1999, the queen appointed Lord Sam Vestey, former chairman of Cheltenham racecourse in Gloucestershire, as the new Master of the Horse. He is the "senior officer" in charge of the royal stables as well as the horses and carriages belonging to the queen. The Telegraph reported,

"In his role he attends important ceremonial occasions when the sovereign rides on horseback or travels in horse-drawn carriage, such as at Trooping the Colour and the state opening of Parliament." Keep watching to learn about Ridiculous Jobs Queen Elizabeth Actually Has Her Staff Do!
