If you’re living in Japan and find yourself recently unemployed or facing an extended vacation, you’re in luck. That’s right. Currently there is a job offer for work inside the nuclear power plant at Fukushima, home to the Fukushima Daiichi reactor.

They’re offering 30,000 to 50,000 yen per day for three months. Let’s take a look at the offer in full.

Here is a translation of the job offer found on various Japanese recruitment sites.

Business Name: Osentekku

So on one hand you can stand to rake in 2,250,000 yen for three months honest work. On the other hand you have to spend that time at ground zero of one of the worst nuclear disasters in the history of mankind – while it’s still ongoing.

When the recruitment ad hit the Internet at large, people had a lot to say questioning both what the actual take-home would turn out to be and who would value their life for that sum.

One netizen made the comment “this is black.” It’s a reasonable concern given the whole inflated-salary-for-Fukushima-work trick has been pulled before.

Also when searching for Osentekku online, there was little to be found about the employer outside of this job posting. Perhaps this is a hoax hinted by the vague katakana pronunciation of “Authentic.”

There Japanese company called AuthenTEC was found but they seem to be a machine manufacturer unrelated to goings on at the Fukushima reactor.

Either way, if you happen to be in need of cash and have nothing to lose, it couldn’t hurt to apply. It just hurts a lot to get hired.
