You may have thought writing for YesButNoButYes was the best job in the world, and it's a close second, what with all the free bacon we receive at the office. But in fact, the best job in the world is being the caretaker on a beautiful island in Australia. As reported in this Yahoo! article, the job requires snorkeling, and strolling the white sands as well as a few minor tasks. The pay for this six-month gig? $105,000 US. Oh, and they're hiring.

I thought the best job in the world was the one your private yacht captain had?
I'm not sure I'd want this job. When the tide comes in the island is like 12m wide. I love water but I don't think i want to be this close to it all my days.
For $17,500 a month I could bear it. There's internet access (because you have to blog while you're there), so you download the weather report and pics from the snowy areas of the world, torture your friends with pics from your job, and still get to work your YBNBY gig....
Anyone know if she is being sarcastic or not?
I really don't get it.
On another note, I would take that job ANY day. I've been unemployed now for nearly a year, it's LIVING hell.
Good luck getting the website to load--it's laggy as all fuck, probably because everyone going to yahoo! is thinking "better sign up!". The only page I could get to was the main one, and that took a fucking millennium to get to.
I'm betting we see this job on snopes soon....
but hey--sure beats what most of us are doing now...
Julian, if you can't tell when I am and when I'm not, then you might need an altavista translator for me...
Sorry to hear about the unemployment, though...that sucks.
May I suggest monster.com instead of YBNBY?
The question is, how are you getting on the internet? Public library visits? Stealing wireless from your cardboard box?
Monster.com???? lol
Judging on the types of honeys I've been taking home lately, THAT sounds like a DATING site!!!!!!!! lmao
when you interview, make sure their insurance has good eye exam coverage...
and, I believe the free clinics will test you to make sure you're not bringing home other things as well...
julian .. you just got sarcky smacked .. it stings !
the only reason that I would not like this job is because at some point in time it would end .. and every other job after it would be a fail ..
Bothered.
Shit site. Nothing works. I reckon it's bogus. If the Queensland government doesn't have enough cash to host a decent site or maintain their roads how the hell could they afford to pay some yank $170,000 AUD to drink their piss and root their women?
We get to drink their piss and root their women as well?
