Only a mistake if you expect them to work more than 10minutes 42sec (approx) per day.... (for 1uk/day... scale as appropriate).

Sounds like a cushy number, though life on the dole might be more lucrative (though this job may come with free internet, etc).

"for 1uk/day" I wouldn't mind being paid by the UK. A few hours work and I'm worth a fair bit of the global economy :oD

Although the attendant problems with the collateral might make it unviable.

Well I guess...
