 Poster: A snowHead

When I left this morning there were about 10 postsings, all pretty reasonable.
What happened while I was away?

I really don't know why this 'opportunity' generates so much fuss year after year. Having lost my job last week, if I could cook to any kind of standard, I'd be considering an application.

You know it makes sense.

Perhaps he was overwhelmed by the stampede to enlist. Given that he has been pimping this opportunity relentlessly for some years now, you'd think he'd have plenty of potential candidates lined up, wouldn't you?
Timberwolf, I think this mostly generates a fuss because he insists that it's "not a job". It's "not a job" only in the sense that you don't get paid and don't have official standing as a worker in Switzerland. It's clearly a job of sorts, but "on the black" and "paid in kind".
Whether it's a good deal depends on how many hours you end up having to work, the opportunity cost of your time, and how much you think the accommodation is worth to you. And possibly whether the Swiss authorities catch up with you.
The other thing which generates a fuss, I suppose, is that nobody ever appears to have heard from anybody who has actually done this job. Which gives rise to foul, unwarranted and unchristian speculation that there's some kind of "gagging clause" in there somewhere. You'd think that positive reports from previous incumbents would be the best possible way of recruiting successors, wouldn't you?
Anyway, I think you should sign up. You could soon learn to cook a bit - it's not rocket science. Then come and tell us how you got on!

Shame it's hidden, I look forward to the annual nix map thread... I've never understood why so many get upset on either side.

If you want to "bring back" the thread, why don't you just post on it? It's already been linked to in this thread?

nbt, Ah... I got caught out with the not reading stuff properly sort of trap.... new post brings subject to top... I half read it and fire off without getting to the bottom of the page. Don't suppose it will be the last time. But I don't normally bother with the Apres, here I go...

This may have some weight to it as Mr Fritzl has recently divorced his wife on the grounds she did not visit him. Maybe her reasons are that she is busy readying the lair .....
