most famous job

Anyone fancy the challenge?

We would have assumed that the most famous job in Ireland was the President, but it turns out it has been claimed by someone else.

The folks down in Blarney are saying that they have an opening for the most famous job and it’s for the ‘Keeper of the Blarney Stone’.

They are looking for someone who will be able to hold people as they kiss the famous stone on a daily basis.

They’ve listed some essentials for the role; you must have the ‘gift of the gab’, be able to hold people as they lean back to kiss the stone, ensure all visitors have an enjoyable visit and be energetic and enthusiastic.

Posting about the job on their Facebook page they said:

“The most famous job in Ireland – “Keeper of the Blarney Stone” required!!!!
