Roblox: Ikea will pay gamers to work in a virtual store

It seems that we are very close to being in a future similar to that of Ready Player One because the company Ikeathrough Robloxwill offer jobs to people who want to work in their virtual store.

Yes, it sounds like an idea that many people would aspire to, but let’s start that this initiative of Ikea with Roblox is starting first in the UK. The salary would be more or less 287 MXN per hourwhich more or less goes with the minimum wage guidelines of this European country.

However, there are only 10 vacancies, which doesn’t sound crazy at all. These new digital employees would work in a showroom and also in the bistro on this site. They will even help other users buy furniture and also eat, because you see that many go to this store to taste food.

Interested parties can register to a dedicated site to promote jobs and also emphasizes that “you should like to become a being of pixels”.

It is worth noting that this initiative comes from the furniture manufacturer in a kind of effort to offer different careers and this is one of them.

It should also be noted that there are not many details about contracts, whether you are going to be permanent and so on. What is certain is that this is a topic for adults.

There will be those who say that this is some kind of pyramid scam.

Roblox and the different experiences you can find from brands

Surely Ikea’s idea doesn’t sound bad at all and they shouldn’t be the only ones offering these jobs, because it is a reality that there is more than one real brand within this universe.

Just to give you an idea, in Roblox you can find an official Hello Kitty and Sanrio experience. There, Bodega Aurrera also has something for users. You even know that they made a level in Fortnite.

There is also the land of Nike, SpongeBob SquarePants, Spotify and even Barbie. Come on, there’s even fast food – you’re not going to eat it. You have to admit that these are ingenious ideas and that they are somehow monetizable.
