Funny job adverts

This week the Charles Fudemuffin blog takes a look at a selection of noteworthy and unusual job adverts...

1) This is kind of ironic...


Unpaid internship for the Fight Against Slavery. #DoubleStandards


"We are looking for someone to work for free in the fight against slavery.

This person would have to work for free."



2) Dunces need not apply


Here's a clever advert for a computer engineer.


If anyone wants to know the number, it's 01 876 8000. #ILikeSolvingProblems



3) A worrying job advert


I hope this recruitment advert is a joke!


Surgeon wanted - no experience needed!



4) Honest advert


Whoever wrote this advert was obviously having a very frustrating day, and apparently they decided to put aside their professionalism and resort instead to unfiltered honesty.


"My client are a massive bunch of indecisive **** who like to think of themselves as being better than they actually are.

They are now looking for like minded ***** to join them.

You will be arrogant and have a high level of self importance, along with a real desire to rip customers off to make lots of money."



5) Old Burger King advert


Don't work at Burger King ... unless you want to end up in one of their burgers!

Burger King, not suitable for non-cannibals.

The secret ingredient is our people!? That sounds like the plot for a horror movie.



6) There are 10 mistakes in this ad


Finally, here's a clever test to find a graphic designer who is talented at spotting mistakes...


Here are the mistakes that I found:
1) beleive (believe)
2) grafic (graphic)
3) deigner (designer)
4) Spot (spot)
5) than (then)
6) sent (send)
7) on (to)
8) pelow (below)
9) your  CV (your CV)
10) portfolio (portfolio.)

There are no mistakes in the advert below, although there is one deliberate bluff.

It's an advert for my excitingly titled short story 'The Cashier Who Didn't Work Saturdays', available for kindle from Amazon.
