As you slog to work this week, spare a thought for Tommy Lynch, Helen Moores and Leigh McCarron. And then dismiss them from your mind. Like Ben Southall, who last week was awarded "the best job in the world" on an Australian island, they need little of your sympathy. And like him, they are being paid handsomely to do "jobs" that barely qualify as what the majority of us would call work.
Charity worker Ben Southall telephones his parents on Hamilton Island in the Whitsunday Islands, after being awarded the job of caretaker of an Australian tropical island. The charity worker won "the best job in the world" as caretaker of a tropical island on Australia's Great Barrier Reef after an unprecedented global search. |
