Spend your days counting down down until lunchtime because you've got the best packed sandos.
If you know your meal deals from your sourdough sarnies, this might just be the perfect job for you.
A coffee shop in Leeds is hiring for the dream job of a sandwich tester - and if you're anything like us you'll already be polishing up your butty eating CV, reports The Manc.
200 Degrees coffee shop is on the hunt for someone with a 'passion for sandwiches' to help it taste its new menu of sarnies. If that isn't a dream role, to be honest we don't know what is.
Requirements include a 'passion for sandwiches', and the 'ability to consume a large amount of bread'.
The lucky sandwich tester must also be happy to travel to a 200 Degrees coffee shop, give feedback on sandwiches and be photographed on eight different platforms.
The sandwich tester also cannot be vegan or vegetarian, as they will be required to eat some meat products, in exchange for a 'competitive salary' (and by that, they mean all the sandwiches you can eat).
So far, so standard. However, the ad also says that no previous experience eating sandwiches is required, which does seem a bit odd to us.
How else does one become a qualified sandwich expert, if not by eating lots and lots of sandwiches, we wonder?

Sharing the roles with followers, a post shared on 200 Degrees Instagram reads: "We have an amazing opportunity to join the 200 Degrees Family (well, for one day only)
"We're unleashing our brand-spanking-new menu and are now searching for an exceptional human to join the team as our Sandwich Tester.
"If you have a passion for sandwiches, this could be your perfect role."
Those wanting to apply are instructed to pile on in the comments and tell the coffee shop why they would be the best choice for the sandwich testing job - and there already seems to be some stiff competition.
One person said: "I spend my whole life thinking about my next meal and reviewing food all around the UK. Ohhhh and I’m a sucker for a sarnie!!!"
Another said: "I’ll do it! Im the perfect candidate. Always hungry, drink all the coffees, eat all the food categories and I own stretchy pants… I’m also fundraising manager for Footprints so you’d be support charity too…"
A third added: "Not a day goes by where I don't eat bread - I have a breadmaking tattoo! Sandwiches are my most common lunch (80% or more), so I think the passion is there. Also photos of me tend to come out alright. Sign me up!"
A fourth commented: "Every November and December, I meticulously review every supermarket Christmas sandwich in can find, you can see all of them in the highlight on my page - this may be the actual perfect job for me."
Applications for the role are open until midnight on 12 August via 200 Degrees Instagram.

Cult burger brand Burgerism opens takeaway outside of Manchester in a Leeds suburb
The North West’s most ordered burger has landed in Leeds, and it’s easy to see why it’s loved by so many.Â
If you don't know about Burgerism, then get to know.
The iconic burger brand, which started life as a dark kitchen off an industrial estate in Salford, is now almost ready to welcome fans into its first Leeds location.
Set to open tomorrow – Wednesday 23 September – Burgerism will be serving up their signature smash burgers from a new site over in Meanwood.

The site sits right next to The Meadwood Tavern on Meanwood Road, the perfect location for if you're out and about and looking for a bit of grub after a few pints.
The interior is sporting the bright Burgerism orange, and although it is mainly a takeaway restaurant there are a few seats for sit-in.
You’ll be able to order your food at the counter, via self-service kiosks, or through click-and-collect on the Burgerism website.

Highlights on the menu will, as always, include the fan-favourite Cheesed (two smashed patties, cheese, lettuce, tomato, pickle, onion and the brand’s signature sauce, served in a seeded brioche bun), as well as a range of chicken burgers, fries, and wings.
Everything is made fresh to order, and even their sauces and dips are made entirely in-house.Â

And the good stuff doesn't stop there, as to celebrate the grand opening they'll be giving away the first 100 customers from 5pm a 'Comeback Card' where you'll eat on them during your next visit. So get there early if you don't want to miss out
The Meanwood site will be the sixth Burgerism site following its five openings elsewhere in Greater Manchester.
A new açai cafe promising to be Leeds’ ‘neighbourhood social club’ is opening soon
Clementine Hall
An independent açai bowl pop-up is opening a permanent cafe in Leeds city centre.
It seems the açai bowl trend isn't over just yet, and we're absolutely not mad about it.
The aesthetically purple frozen treat isn't just delicious, but is also known to have numerous health benefits making it guilt-free and the perfect post-workout pick me up.
You may remember Açai Social Club that opened as a pop-up in the Victoria Quarter last year, and now they're moving into a permanent spot in the city centre.
Run by a lovely husband and wife duo who have spent the last 15 months exploring cafes around the world, it's safe to say they know exactly what they're talking about.
Their açai is made with the very best ingredients, topped with the freshest fruit and sprinkled with their homemade granola - it doesn't get much better then that does it?
Announcing the very exciting news to Instagram, they said: "Açai Social Club is getting a home. Our very first store is officially on the way! We’ve been working behind the scenes to create a space that’s more about than just açai.
"What started as an idea is finally becoming something you can walk into…There’s still a lot we’re keeping under wraps for now, but we’re so excited to finally share the beginning of what’s to come.
"We can’t wait to open our doors and welcome you in. Your new neighbourhood social club, coming soon."
The exact location of the cafe and its opening date is still under wraps, but we'll of course keep you updated as and when we find out.
