Australia, as you recall, recently offered up "The Best Job in the World," which basically involves sitting back on an island, "caretaking," soaking in the sun, and blogging about it. (Actually, all you have to do, according to the site, is "Explore and report back, feed the fish, clean the pool, and collect the mail.)
It's already inspired one woman to get a huge tattoo on her back and managed to crash the website's servers. And, with just THREE DAYS REMAINING, if you want in on this deal of a lifetime (it pays over $150k for six months of "work") you better hurry. Oh, and be creative. Because you've got some competition.
There's not long now until applications close for The Best Job in the World. As of Thursday 12 February 4:30pm Eastern Standard Time (EST) we have received just over 15,500 applications in total. Not all of these have been approved due to a variety of reasons. You have until 22 February 11:59pm UTC to get your applications in. We'll continue to update you on the latest figures over the coming week.This number, apparently, is already over 19,000. Which is simply stunning. And a pretty good indication that everyone in the free world would prefer to not actually work and to just hang out on an island all day. Obviously, right? Of course, not me. I have the real best job in the world*.
Which is why I haven't actually applied [under my real name].

Rescues Kim!
I thought that Kim is a specialty, and care manner person. I saw has many people to the point of view is subject to duty this work, but I thought that she is not such person. Perhaps some people is good at performing, movie also very fancy. But is this work's core not that environmental protection ' care ' continues forever to develop like three goals? Now the great barrier reef ecology moves toward feebly day after day , we need to have a person who has sincerity to treasure it the to manage it, but is not throws the ticket to the human who is good at performing , like this we and the later generation descendants can forever appreciate guarantee the reef beautiful scene, also can avoid letting it move toward the historical noun the regret, DO you want yours and your descendants can appreciate guarantees the reef greatly? That throws the ticket to Kim! In all participants, only then she can accomplish, please throw a your sacred ticket to her! Thanks!
