Given the state of the economy, we’re all working harder for less, and it’s exhausting. The Tourism Queensland Board has created a a new job position, the Caretaker of the Islands, touting it as “The Best Job in the World” where you’d experience the complete and extreme opposite: the chance to work less and get so much more… 
Official Job Description:
- Feed the fish: There are over 1,500 species of fish living in the Great Barrier Reef. Don’t worry – you won’t need to feed them all.
- Clean the pool: The pool has an automatic filter, but if you happen to see a stray leaf
floating on the surface it’s a great excuse to dive in and enjoy a few laps.
- Collect the mail: During your explorations, why not join the aerial postal service for a
day? It’s a great opportunity to get a bird’s eye view of the reef and islands.
- Salary package: AUD $150,000 for the six-month contract
This is a pretty clever campaign from a tourism board – not just pictures of beaches and smiling faces of locals. I think this is a job any of us could handle.
