VIDEO: 24 People Were Interviewed For The World’s Toughest Job But There Were No Takers

We definitely agree.

If you think you have the hardest job in the world, you might be right.

At first this advertised position sounded like the regular New York style job that people fall over themselves to get in the first place: unreasonable working hours, specific pre-requisites and experience and very demanding tasks.

But as the description went on, this job started to sound really, really strange. Strange enough for one applicant to ask if the job was even legal.

Surely standing up almost all the time, constantly exerting yourself, working from 135 to unlimited hours per week and holding necessary degrees in medicine, finance and culinary arts, as well as accepting no annual holiday days has to be inhumane?

Watch it and judge for yourself…

The video was produced by Mullen in Boston for its client, American Greeting.

As sweet and touching as this is, we really hope they paid the job-seekers for their time.
