Moms: Try This UK Mother’s Day Ad Calculator To See How Much You Should Be Earning Working The ‘Hardest Job in the World’

For Mother's Day in the UK, Interflora ran a fake ad Monday in the Times newspaper, targeting hard-working mothers. Called the "Hardest Job in the World," the ad also comes with a calculator so moms can see how much they should be making.

According to Adweek.com, the "Hardest Job in the World" was styled as a job ad looking to hire candidates willing to work 119 hours a week, learn on the job, have impeccable time management skills, be on call 24/7, have unlimited patience, and be calm under pressure.

Moms, you can try the calculator here for yourself and see how much you should really be earning for all the hard work you do!

The "Hardest Job in the World" ad is very similar to last year's famous "World's Toughest Job" from American Greetings. However, while American Greetings listed Mom's salary as $0, the Interflora ad said the salary for moms is £172,000 a year, or about $260,000. That's taking into account 40 hours a week on the job - plus 79 hours a week of overtime - in jobs like teacher, chauffeur, psychologist, housekeeper, head chef, and personal assistant.
