Best job in the world

[hate-d-mah-old-prepjob]

Maybe someone already posted this, but it seems like such a sweet gig, I'd post it again. 100K to take a 6-month vacation. NICE.

Did it say anything about them forcing you to take a one-week unpaid furlough?

 

[Magic In The Night]

Oh my God. And presumably unlimited snorkeling in the Reef? Sign me up! I'll feed the fish, clean the pool and collect the mail? There must be some sort of catch here.

 

[hate-d-mah-old-prepjob]

From what I've heard, there were more than 20,000 applicants the first day it was posted.

 

[playthrough]

Half of those applicants should be journalists. Actually, looking at the ad itself, it would be a tremendous job for an outdoors writer. And how many newspapers have pushed those jobs aside...

 

[Mizzougrad96]

You know who should be applying for this job?

Everyone.

 

[bigpern23]

Seriously, though ... what's the catch? If it sounds too good to be true, etc. ...

 

[JayFarrar]

Ten applicants, plus a wild card. First step in the process is to create a 60-second video. Sounds like the setup for a reality show.
I think that's the catch.

Incredible. What a job offer.

Call me crazy but I'd do a lot of things for $100k and being casted in a reality TV show would definitely be included in that.

they didn't mention you might almost be killed by a minuscule jellyfish.

So ... even the world's best job has potentially deadly drawbacks! Solution: Be independently wealthy!
