What does the White Rabbit do for a living?

The White Rabbit works as a Trumpet-blowing herald and serves as a clerk of the court and court officer during the trial. (The case of the stolen tarts: Rex v. Knave of Hearts.)

White Rabbit pops up several times in Lewis Carroll's story, being the very first character Alice sees in her dream. However, apart from the court-room scene -where it may be serving in an unpaid capacity!- Carroll doesn't actually tell us what White Rabbit does for a living.

'Alice's Adventures in Wonderland' is a very famous book. It is entertaining, intriguing and easy to read.
