Wombat walker, ghost hunter and oyster organiser are among odd jobs being offered in Tasmania
Tasmania in Australia has started accepting applications for jobs that people may not find anywhere else on Earth. In total, the Australian state is offering ten odd jobs, but there is a catch¡ªyou won't get paid for the work you do.
Odd jobs in Tasmania
The ten odd jobs include wombat walker, cave conductor, paranormal investigator, truffle snuffler, wine whisperer, puffer nut, soaksmith, oyster organiser, star seeker, and sauna stoker.
Wombat walker
A ¡°wombat walker¡± at East Coast Natureworld in Bicheno is responsible for leading the furry animals on their morning waddles as part of their rehabilitation program. The employees will ¡°coax them out of bed to get them moving¡± and ¡°keep them motivated with encouragement and snacks.¡±
Cave conductor??
A ¡°cave conductor¡± at Gunns Plains Caves will help local musician Charlie warm up before performing for tour groups underground.
Paranormal investigator
A ¡°paranormal investigator¡± with Tasmania¡¯s Most Haunted in New Norfolk will help capture and document any disturbances, spectral figures, or unexplained phenomena at Willow Court Asylum.
What is the reward
The absurd-sounding jobs are open to all Australian citizens and, while they won't be paid, chosen candidates will have their accommodation and flights paid to the Apple Isle.
Those who wish to apply must also explain in 50 words or less why they want to swap their day job for the odd job.
Billed as the ¡°antithesis of the daily grind,¡± these experiences invite those who are looking for a break from their busy lives.
Tourism campaign?
Well, these are not real jobs, but a campaign by Tourism Tasmania to encourage winter tourism.
