This is a REAL ad, placed in the NY Times and I just love it. Here is the begining of the ad:
Job Title: Lazy, uneducated, careless persons
Employer: wsw
Location: New York, NY
Date Posted: 08-11-2005
Job Type: Full Time ContractGrowing profitable respected tech company seeks people without any sort of completed college degree (and who misspell bachelors), to arrive in the office not at scheduled times but rather when they see fit and after arrival to proceed to do as little as humanly possible and never learn anything.
We’re not picky on the completion thing here so if we ask for a university graduate, and you once attended a class or might possibly plan to at some point in time, please go right ahead and apply. Our specific needs/wants and especially our time is worthless. Only you matter.
Further, we ask that you send a totally irrelevant generic cover letter (possibly including a title for a different job or often a different company’s name) that mentions you possess a very special talent and can speak the language of the country you were born and raised in before you came here and that utterly ignores the topic you were asked to address in the cover letter.
It is obviously worth the read
