WebHits: World’s toughest job
24/7 working hours, no salary and benefits – this job posting for "Director of Operations" claims it's the world's toughest job

MANILA, Philippines – It seemed like a typical job posting for a “Director of Operations.” That is, until you read the requirements for a job at a company called Rehtom Inc.

The list of duties and responsibilities looked like violations of the labor code:

  • Must be able to work 135+ hours a week
  • Willingness to forgo any breaks
  • Work mostly standing up and/or bending down
  • Ph.D. in psychology or real-life equivalent
  • Crisis management skills a must
  • Demonstrated knowledge and experience in negotiating, counseling and culinary arts
  • Unlimited patience
  • Understanding of finance
  • Understanding of medicine
  • Ability to wear several hats, professional and domestic
  • Positive disposition at all times

The benefits? “This job provides infinite opportunities for personal growth and rewards. Emotional fulfillment and extraordinary impact on associate success provides a lifetime of purpose and meaningful connection,” the posting read.

The ad piqued the curiosity of 24 people, who asked about the position via webcam. Their real-time reactions ranged from confusion, disbelief, and shock. One even asked, “Is this legal?”

The interviewer later said that billions of people do this kind of job everyday. Watch the video for the big reveal at the end.
