Ideal opportunities are few and far between

Occasionally an opportunity comes along that looks ideal.

I have just seen an opportunity for a "sports content writer", and the requirement was for writing on sports, and especially on UK football (soccer) [so, just football, then]. Excellent, right up my street.

They wanted so much writing that it would apparently have filled 40 hours a week. Wow, that's a lot of writing.

However, the pay was poor, very poor: only £5-£6 an hour.
I'm not sure who they would expect to write articles for that money; and I'm not sure what quality of writing they would expect.

Such a pity. Another apparently ideal opportunity gone with the wind!
