There are a lot of jobs I'd do for £190,000 a year. I'd sift through feces to find pieces of sweetcorn, if such a job exists, to earn that much money annually.
You'd think if there was an opening with that income, the applicants would come flying in. However, a man in New Zealand is really struggling to recruit anyone, even on that salary.
Dr Alan Kenny, who owns a medical practice in Tokoroa, Waikato, is offering a successful candidate half of the practice, three months holiday, no weekend or night shifts and £190,000 a year - but no fucker is taking it.

If I was qualified I'd be packing my bags and heading straight to New Zealand faster than you could say 'The Shire'.

Dr Kenny told the New Zealand Herald that he thinks the pressures of 6,000 clients on the books may be too much for some people.
"I can offer them a really, really amazing income; it's incredible. My practice has exploded in the last year and the more patients you list, the more money you get. But it just gets too much at the end of the day. I love my work and I would like to stay but I hit my head against a brick wall trying to attract doctors. If it's hard enough to get doctors to work alongside me, it's going to be a devil of a job to get doctors to replace me," he told the newspaper.
Listen Al, if you want someone to replace you, and don't mind all of the standards that you've put in place going out of the window, I'm your man.
