Calling all underachievers.

A Tasmanian pub is so desperate for staff that it posted an appeal for applicants on Facebook – stating even those with a police record or drug habit would be welcome.

“We are looking for high achievers who have proven experience in a high-pressure environment, ideally with references from Gordon Ramsay or Heston Bloomenthal [sic].

“Actually, who are we kidding? We are desperate for staff,” the since-removed job post on the Weldborough Hotel’s social media read, according to The Guardian.

“Police record? Who cares. Drug habit? Join the club. Alcoholic? Don’t get me started. If I can’t find anyone before Xmas, I won’t have a business after Xmas,” the appeal concluded.

The brutally honest request was an instant hit, and was shared around 1,500 times with more than 250 comments within just two days, The Guardian said.

“It has been, frankly, humbling to see how quickly people were prepared to reach out and offer help.  There are some very good people in this world,” the Weldborough Hotel’s current staff wrote in an update on Sunday.

Thanks to the job post’s popularity, the team has already made five offers “to range [from] casual and potentially part-time kitchen and front of house staff,” the post continued.

The pub’s website states it offers craft beers, ciders, and soft drinks as well as an exclusively Tasmanian wine list and “delicious meals freshly prepared and cooked to order,” and that they support Tasmanian producers wherever possible.  

However, the Weldborough Hotel is located in a particularly remote area in the Northeastern corner of Tasmania, south of the Australian mainland.

“We are in a town of 22 people, 2 hours from Launceston and 4 hours from Hobart.  We now have a crew of 10 staff from the local area to carry us through the summer season,” its staff posted.

The establishment even had words for the job posting’s critics.

“To the people that told me the post was unprofessional and a bad look, I will take that feedback and raise you the 5 new staff.  Better yet: come to the pub and experience the service and the food and then call us unprofessional,” the clapback read.

Since it’s been inundated with calls, the Weldborough also promised to help other applicants find similar work since there are other understaffed businesses in the remote area, the post added.

The Weldborough Hotel is located along the famous Blue Tier and Blue Derby bike trails and offers free campgrounds as well as providing rooms.

The Welborough’s staff did not immediately respond to The Post’s request for comment.
