Jobs now scarce enough they’re reality show prizes

To paraphrase a comedian from The Moon show last month, it is probably a sad state of the economy that we now have a reality show wherein the prize is not money, trips or washer-dryer sets but a … job. The CBS show, simply called The Job,  aims to give contestants “a chance to win dynamic positions with potential for enormous growth at …  at their dream company in industries such as fashion, game design, sports, travel and entertainment.” Of course, considering current conditions, we might consider slapping some bitches on TV for health insurance ourselves, and maybe you would too, so you can now apply to be on it!
