STOMPer Bee was amused to see a post on facebook that was looking for people who are willing to get paid to queue up for barbequed pork, or more popularly known as Bak Kwa.

The 'job advert' was posted on the social networking site by a woman, who claims her company is willing to pay three individuals $50 each for a "1 day job" to queue up for the Chinese delicacy at a Lim Chee Guan outlet.

Although Bak Kwa is widely available throughout the year, it is usually highly sought-after for the Chinese New Year season.

When the post went up, a netizen labelled the move as an "extreme" one, and that it was the "first time I see people hired to queue (for) bak kwa", to which the woman replied: "We can't ask employees to queue ma..Cuz we need to work.. That's why we need to hire ppl".

In her report, STOMPer Bee wrote:

"Bak Kwa hype.

"$50 per day, anyone?"

Never understood why people had to queue to eat bak kwa at exorbitant prices during CNY either, and I don't even like bak kwa.

if you are a vegetarian, you will not have such headaches and problems.

Saw the advertisement on top of a vegetarian food stall, no egg, no milk, no garlic, no onion?? what do they eat? vegetables, flour, oil & gluten, very unhealthy.

Serve guests during CNY, or give them away as gifts.

Why does vegetarian food have no garlic and no onion? Are garlic and onion new kinds of meat?

i eat garlic and onion too . the no garlic and no onion concept is the chinese buddhism concept. It is a religious thing.
