Ever wonder what the requirements are for starting the job as the jolly old fellow we all know as Santa Clause? Well, here are a list of them just in case someone you know has a life long goal of being the man in the red suit.

1. Must fit in the Santa suit

Or fatten himself up until it does fit.

2. Must be able to consume millions of cookies in one night

Preparation starts December 26th.

3. Must be able to grow a beard

Vital requirement for storing cookies for the sleigh ride home.

4. Must be on the nice list

Otherwise, he'd be a big old hypocrite.

5. Must have a license to drive a sleigh

Have you ever heard of air traffic? Me neither, but I'm sure it's a thing.

6. Must be able to speak all languages

How else is he going to ask all the children of the world what they want for Christmas and command his reindeer?

7. Must be light on his feet

Tip-toe, tip-toe through the house.

8. Must be able to navigate and fit through all chimneys

Or have a Santa Key that can be used for houses that do not have chimneys.

9. Must be a jolly old fellow

Kids aren't going to like a mean, grumpy old man. Santa brings the holly and the jolly to the holidays.

10. Must be able to keep the spirit of Christmas alive

Merry Christmas to all, and to all a good night!
