最“寒”的工作:南极电工
Tony McLaughlan would argue that his role as an electrician inAntarctica for the British Antarctic Survey is the best. The -50Ctemperatures and the fact that Mr McLaughlan is 9,000 miles fromhome in an almost uninhabitable wilderness mean that demand for anelectrician will be low. However, the £23,000 salary, free food andpaid rent meant that thousands of people jammed phone lines whenthe job was first advertised on the BBC.
TonyMcLaughlan也许不太同意他在南极为英国南极科考队做的工作是最好的。毕竟在这种零下50度的低温,离家9000公里远,不太适合人类生存的地方当个电工意味着你有钱赚都没地方花。不过2.3万英镑的薪水包食宿的待遇还是在这份工作刚在BBC登广告招聘的时候就让英国人挤破了头。
