A tempting job offer


This is a screencap from the online edition of our local paper; the ad appears there as well.


Any takers?

4. Carnie
Carnival Cruise Lines would take out a display ad with a picture of a ship, their logo and all sorts of exciting copy about visiting exotic ports of call. Which, of course, is the same way the White Star Line recruited people to shovel coal into the boilers on the Titanic, but that's a story for another day.

5. I can't tell if you are being series!!11! or sarcastic about being tempted but honestly
there are days when I fantasize about jumping ship and running off. Traveling being free etc...

I love my family too much and I recognize that this just a reaction to too much stress at work or whatever but yeah some days that looks like a tempting job offer...

10. Reminds me of Coney Island..

...when I was last there around 2002. The guys in charge of the rides were huffing something with their dirty little rags stuck up in their faces.

11. If I were single and had taken a self-defense course I'd do it.
I'd love that experience..that's why I became an exotic entertainer.

12. What strikes me as the most questionable is the "must leave today" bit
I've checked a lot of "help wanted" ads in my time, but I've never seen that requirement before...
