B&M Bargains has officially listed a job for a Chicken Nugget Connoisseur on its website. Yes, really. I swear, I’m not making this up.
If you think you’d be really great at eating lots and lots of chicken nuggets, then you should definitely consider applying. It sounds like a pretty dreamy gig for any nugget-lover.
The job will involve taste testing a range of food products, as the discount retail giant prepares to launch its own fresh and frozen food range in stores next month.
While the job description seems to focus on the chicken nugget angle (no doubt to draw us all in…. tbf it totally worked), references to fish finger sandwiches and curly fries in the listing suggests that the food tasting could be more varied.
If you’re ready to ditch your New Year’s resolutions and stuff yourself with chicken nuggets, then dust off your CV skills and get applying online.
Things you’ll need include a top-notch CV, a paragraph explaining why you deserve the opportunity, and bear in mind that B&M have specified that their ideal candidate will have relevant experience.
What kind of experience you ask? Examples include (but are not limited to):
‘Getting the 20 share box of nuggets from McDonalds and keeping them all to yourself’.
‘Being the first in the office kitchen whenever someone says there’s cake’.
‘You can conduct a power point presentation on the reasoning behind curly fries being nicer than chips’
If this all sounds very much like you, then get excited because you could be the next chicken nugget connoisseur.
Real talk though. We’ve been through all the pros, but ngl there are a couple of cons.
Sadly, it’s a temporary role, and you won’t really get paid as such...just £25 of vouchers a month with which to buy your chicken nuggets. So, it’s not exactly a job.
BUT as a side hustle offering free food it sounds ideal.
Unless you're a vegetarian (like me). In which case, just direct this article to all your carnivorous friends.
