Gough Island: Worker sought for one of world's remotest places

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-65254130

A British wildlife group is looking for someone to work on one of the remotest islands in the world for 13 months.

#Gough Island is around 1,500 miles from the #African mainland - and, with no airport, reaching Gough involves a seven-day boat ride from South Africa.

There are seven full-time employees - and eight million #birds - who call Gough home.

@Resister in the ancient times I worked at 100 William St, Sydney. The building is 300m from the coke sign. In that building at the same time worked one of life's gentlemen, #Gough Whitlam.

Frequently we'd be on the same lift coming up from parking for him and the street for me. Whenever that occurred I would say good #morning Mr #Whitlam and he never called me anything but "comrade".
