Majority of young adults want an office job that allows them Facebook access, a study has revealed.

According to the research, one third admitted that they are afraid to get their hands dirty and expected to have access to the social networking site at their office, Metro.co.uk reported.

Also, one fifth of youngsters confessed that they would prefer a workplace full of people their own age to make flirting possible, and the same number revealed that they wanted free WiFi access for their phones and tablets.

While fashion designing was declared as the 'coolest' job, gardening and builder's work proved to be least appealing.
