just got a new job. so my take home pay is better now. I'm not telling.
well....nowadays it is very common for ppl to earn like 20 or 30k per mnth....
wah...i tot mas economy worse now...still very common for people earning rm 30000-rm 20000???
...
...I beg to differ. In Malaysia it is not common for people to earn RM20-30k.I suspect even for middle class in Malaysia the average pay is about RM5 a month.
Sorry I mean RM5K a month.
Australia offers 'best job in world' on paradise island
i want this job....!!!
anyone can recommend me to it??
SYDNEY (AFP) – An Australian state is offering internationally what it calls "the best job in the world" -- earning a top salary for lazing around a beautiful tropical island for six months.
The job pays 150,000 Australian dollars (105,000 US dollars) and includes free airfares from the winner's home country to Hamilton Island on the Great Barrier Reef, Queensland's state government announced on Tuesday.
In return, the "island caretaker" will be expected to stroll the white sands, snorkel the reef, take care of "a few minor tasks" -- and report to a global audience via weekly blogs, photo diaries and video updates.
The successful applicant, who will stay rent-free in a three-bedroom beach home complete with plunge pool and golf buggy, must be a good swimmer, excellent communicator and be able to speak and write English.
"They'll also have to talk to media from time to time about what they're doing so they can't be too shy and they'll have to love the sea, the sun, the outdoors," said acting state Premier Paul Lucas.
"The fact that they will be paid to explore the islands of the Great Barrier Reef, swim, snorkel and generally live the Queensland lifestyle makes this undoubtedly the best job in the world."
Lucas said the campaign was part of a drive to protect the state's 18 billion Australian dollar a year tourism industry during the tough economic climate caused by the global financial meltdown.
"Traditional tourism advertising just doesn't cut it sometimes and we are thinking outside the box by launching this campaign."
Queensland Tourism Minister Desley Boyle said some people might question whether it was risky to let an unknown person become an unofficial tourism spokesperson for the state.
"I think the biggest risk will be that the successful candidate won't want to go home at the end of the six months," she said.
"This is a legitimate job which is open to anyone and everyone."
Applications are open until February 22. Eleven shortlisted candidates will be flown to Hamilton Island in early May for the final selection process and the six month contract will commence on July 1.

That sounds quite like a moderator's job.Drift, what they didn't reveal is that in the selection process each applicant will have to swim with 10 sharks and feed them. Only those who come out alive will go through to the next interview round.
Er, I don't mean "of this forum"

Hmm..
...and i know it doesn't mention anything abt having Babi Guling (roasted pig) as part of the diet..
Although, if they want, they could've offered this to the producer of "Survivor" so they can do a show on it..
..do you really want to live in an island, all by yourself, for 6 months straight??...i know i wouldn't..i want this job....!!!
anyone can recommend me to it??

^^One..^^
..other caveat about that is, where am i going to get my badminton fix (other than surfing online to BC)???...
:crying: 
But you're right, in these troubled times and very high unemployment period, i guess staking one's 6 months life living on an island just to do research and getting more tanned while getting paid is not so bad after all...
