While some people fancy themselves pick-up artists, Jonathan Kiekbusch is the break-up king -- that is, if you pay him. Jonathan has started a business where in exchange for eight dollars (20 if the job takes extra time) he will break up with your girlfriend or boyfriend for you. His services have spared many people the awful break-ups that sometimes end in vases being smashed against walls and clothes being thrown from balconies.
Kiekbusch thought of this business when he went through a terrible break-up himself and wished he had someone to do his dirty work for him. Now he usually breaks-up with about six people a week and will still turn down jobs if he feels uncomfortable about the situation.
