Dream job: You need to turn the light on and off for 2000 euros

  •  The Swedish government is financing an experimental art project in which, at the end of his working life, one fortunate guy is given a pension of EUR 2,060 per month, reviewed twice a day.


    Every day, the employee will have to go to the Gothenburg train station and attach his passport, after which the light over the passenger platform will mark the arrival at work of this very necessary and valuable person!

    After that, as long as he returns at the close of the change to take the card out to turn the light off, he will go and do whatever he wishes. Whenever they choose, they will be free to leave and their work is assured before they get a job somewhere else. Annual raises, payment of contributions, annual leave, and retirement are assured for the worker.

    This strange idea, to put it lightly, is the outcome of a competition declared by the Swedish Public Art Department to decorate the new station imaginatively. The award was around 667 thousand euros for the winning concept, and the two artists who recalled this recommended that the prize be spent on a project called Everlasting Employment.

    In this situation, infinity means 120 years of salary for this vital work, and the minds behind the initiative, Simon Goldin and Jakob Senebi, assume that with an annual rise of 3.2 percent, there is a 75 percent probability that they will be able to pay wages from this budget.

    Contrary to the vast number of politicians from different parties who feel that this is a waste of taxpayers' money, the board responsible for determining the winner of the award was pleased with the proposal. Some claim that the idea is actually pointless and meaningless, which even its developers agree with, arguing that they tried to do just this.

    Just a year before the completion of the building of the railway station, which is scheduled in 2026, would those involved in the race for this very responsible role be eligible to apply.
