The toughest job in the world

This is the video we watched in class. You can see part of the script below.



The title that we have going right now is director of operations, but it's really kind of so much more than that. Responsibilities and requirements are- are really quite extensive. First category for the requirements would be mobility; this job requires that you must be able to work standing up most or really all of the time, constantly on your feet, constantly bending over, constantly exerting yourself--- a high level of stamina.
Okay
That's a lot.
For how many like for how many hours?
135 hours to unlimited hours a week. It's basically 24 hours a day,  seven days a week.
Sure you have a chance from time to time to maybe just sit down here and there.
You mean a break -- no there are no breaks available.
Is that even legal? Oh yeah of course -- -- --
no lunch?
you can have lunch but only when the associate is done eating their lunch.
I think that's a little intense
No! No! That's crazy! –
This position requires excellent negotiation and interpersonal skills. We're really looking for someone that might have a degree in medicine, in finance and in culinary arts. You must be able to wear several hats. The associate needs constant attention. Sometimes they have to stay up with an associate. throughout the night and be able to work in a chaotic environment. If you, if you had a life we'd ask you to sort of give that life up; no vacations- in fact Thanksgiving, Christmas, New Years and holidays, the workload is gonna go up and we demand that with- with a happy disposition.
That's almost cruel how -- it's almost a very very sick twisted joke.
When there's time for sleep or
No time to sleep.
all encompassing almost
That's exactly right
360 days a year
yes --.
No! That's inhumane!
That's very insane.
The meaningful connections that you make. The feeling that you get from really helping your associate are immeasurable.
Also let’s cover the salary. The position is gonna pay absolutely nothing.
Excuse me?
No!
