Via Reuters' Oddly Enough:

A man from southern England posted a help wanted ad in his local newspaper looking for a drinking partner for his elderly father.

The job will pay roughly $14USD an hour and expenses for the lucky employee to take 88 year-old Jack Hammond from his nursing home to a local pub.

The chosen drinking partners are a retired doctor and former military man.

"Dad's now going to be going down to the pub several times a week -- three with his new friends and twice with me," Mike Hammond told The Times on Thursday. "I want to give him some of his old life back."

Sounds like a college student's dream job.
