Help wanted: Japanese ogres

thank you Roten!

Here is the link to Oga City's home page.

If they'll throw in a subsidized apartment, I want this job. I would make a great ogre. What other job pays you to scare kids?

Link please? Seriously, my boyfriend wants to apply

Sounds like it would be fun, though not sure even in jest if I could wave a knife in front of a house and demand to know if there are bad kids inside.

Ogres for Oga - how ironic! Sounds like pretty good money for keeping a tradition alive.

So where is the contact information? I'm so ugly and hairy I wouldn't even need a mask.

275,000 yen a month is better than a 4 year college graduate for an IT position in Japan... just check the jobs to the right of the page.

Pretty decent pay. I'm sure there are a lot of young people out there willing to do that. I would.

@6wings , just get people who don't need a mask :p

Yeah and there's a few of them around too.
