Mattress Firm Seeks Intern To Sleep On The Job

(SOUNDBITE OF MUSIC)

RACHEL MARTIN, HOST:

Good morning. I'm Rachel Martin. Mattress retailers have come on hard times lately, with competition from online companies that deliver a bed in a box.

Requirements include proficiency in napping regardless of time of day and being, quote, "eager to meet new people and talk to them about awesome things like sleep." Sign me up.
