The job (that's not really a job) offers $100,000
CHICAGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
Groupon plans on hiring (but not really hiring) someone to do the
easiest job in the world*. The job (that's not actually a job) that
we'll hire for (not hire at all), requires this new employee (who is not
employed by Groupon) to do nothing. Additionally that job (not a job)
pays $100,000. Clear and simple.

"Wait, what?" said Vic Galon, Groupon's Head of Workforce Leverage and
Productivity.
Could that person be you? Yes, maybe or not at all. According to Human
Resources (they have nothing to do with this) there's a pretty simple
entry method in place -- like going to this landing page and then
"purchasing a Groupon"** -- that you're probably already doing anyway.
In fact, that's exactly the way to enter. The application (rather, steps
on buying Groupons) can be found at: http://gr.pn/TheEasiestJob.
Go to the landing page. Buy a Groupon**. Get entered to win. Anticipate
victory (or disappointment). We're not really allowed to say, but this
video should help illustrate where we're going with this.
