Job Opening: Chief Tasting Officer For Wendy’s
If you’re grinding through the end of the work week, thinking your job feels like lifting cinder blocks all day, here’s something that might make you shake your head a little.
Wendy’s just posted a job opening for something called a Chief Tasting Officer. In other words, a CTO. Not computers… taste testing. And the pay? One hundred thousand dollars.
The job isn’t permanent. It’s a temporary gig. But while it lasts, the description basically says you’ll get paid to eat Wendy’s food and talk about it online.
Their listing says the person will help bring the company’s “vibes, taste, and creativity” to life. In plain English, you’ll be sampling burgers, fries, and Frostys while posting about it on social media.
So yeah, they’re looking for someone comfortable on camera. Probably an influencer… or somebody who wouldn’t mind becoming one while working their way through a stack of Baconators.
The funniest part might be the qualifications.
According to Wendy’s, the required skills include “a human mouth,” “a pulse,” and “opinions.” That’s it. No college degree. No ten years of experience. Just the ability to eat and tell people what you think.
There aren’t traditional benefits attached to the job. But Wendy’s says the perks are pretty obvious: $100,000 and a position that AI can’t take over.
Their reasoning? Simple.
AI doesn’t have a mouth.
If that sounds like a job you’d actually enjoy, you can apply at WendysChiefTastingOfficer.com.
So if your boss has you doing the jobs of three people today, just remember… somewhere out there, somebody’s about to get paid six figures to eat burgers.
