Best. Job. Ever. You can now do a PhD in chocolate studies…

Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm...

JOE

Would you hate Mondays as much if this was your job?

A few of you out there might be trying to decide which course to choose after getting your Leaving Cert results last week. This is an exciting time for everyone and not just because of the decisions people have to make, but also because of what courses are on offer.

Well boy do we have the perfect job for you.

Cambridge University have just announced that they will be looking for one lucky candidate to do a course in chocolate. Yes, that’s right, CHOCOLATE. Mmmmmmmmmmmm…

It is harder to get the place than it seems, however, as the lucky candidate will have a good degree, a scientific background, good maths skills and experience with soft solids.

The eventual goal will be to find a way for the brown substance to retain structural integrity in warm climates. The course will take three years where you would expect to go on to be the subject of an indepth cambridge study of diabetes. Yeah, yeah, yeah, blah, blah, blah. Just gove us the goddamn chocolate.
