Take-out pizza chain hiring. Aged over 18, no experience required. Uniform provided. Salary: $31,000 an hour. As part of a series of events commemorating the 25th anniversary of its arrival in Japan, Domino's Pizza Japan is set to hire one lucky person at the rate of 2,500,000 yen ($31,030) for an hour's worth of work in December. A company spokesman declined to provide further details until November 10, but the company's website said that anyone who wants the job will need to fill out and submit an application. "Basically, it's anybody over 18, no questions about education or experience. We're actually a little surprised by how much of a response it's getting," the spokesman said of the obvious marketing ploy. Hourly pay for part-time jobs in Japan averages just under 1,000 yen ($12.41). Many of the comments on a Japanese article about the offer noted that the salary was cheap for its probable advertising impact, and others said there are better uses for the money, such as raising workers' salaries. One comment poster said he couldn't take the job even if he were selected, because he'd be afraid of what people thought of him. Reuters |
