NASA want to hire a number of volunteers for a project to study the effects of no gravity for a long time, 70 days. 18K for 70 days. And the job requires you to only lie in bed for that time period.
Laying in bed all day long for money? I think I have finally found a job I love.
Strange that they feel the need to do this study since you would think they would already know what zero G does to people based on Skylab and the International Space Station.

, they had a piece on interesting things to observe in zero-G. Flames don't rise, faces become more round since gravity isn't pulling down your skin, and a few other neat things.
But back to the job offer, actually, I think I would go stir crazy after the first 12 hours. I don't see how people could stay in bed months at a time.
