ReplyDeleteThanks.
Shoes size? You are T.E.R.R.I.B.L.E.! Too funny!
ReplyDeleteNo pending kids is my absolute fav!! Too bad Britney didn't include that one.
ReplyDeleteThis is HILARIOUS. Maybe I should've used this when I was seeking a candidate.
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad you stressed the pending kids thing b/c guys will conveniently leave that out only to say, "well I didn't have any at the time" once the child is born!
Definitely has a tinge of gold-diggerishness to it, but I've always known you to be a shallow, self-absorbed, high-maintenance (kinda) and opportunistic shop-a-holic so at least you're keeping it real!
This was a nice, light post. A good transition from your last heavy-handed dose of ideas!
Salary: It's gonna cost ya
ReplyDeleteYou made me *snort* at work. Most uncool, chick.
Ha!
Other than the height and shoe size thing I meet all your requirements. When's the interview?
ReplyDeleteThe Knicks remark was a low blow. Really low.
ReplyDeleteBesides that: Brilliant!
Hahahahahaha...what's funny, is that I just did a post on this today...well...kinda similar. Anyways...good luck on the search!!
ReplyDeletei aint sayin u a gold digger...but...anyway, i'm shocked u didnt say anything about a free meal somewhere in there...lol
ReplyDeleteAdd No Yankee fans..and this could be dangerously close to being a carbon copy of my "resume."
ReplyDeleteLove it!
I can dig this post. Whats up with the benefits though? A brotha would work hard for some benefits. A hot meal or something.
ReplyDeleteU and CHarles........man yall kiling me with these applications...resumes....but I loves it......
ReplyDeleteSO he can't be ordinary NEGRO..he gotta be clocking major figures hmmmmm........
and the shoe size isn't a DEFinite all the time...
DOes he hafta know how to work the middel too?
1. You said nothing about you being the only person an applicant can be applying to. Thanks.
ReplyDelete2. I don’t see any benefits for the winning *scratch that*, accepted candidate.
3. Can I submit the resumes of my friends and get some kind of finders fee?
4. Please see #2.
You know, I had something similar. But I just kept setting up interview after interview. Round after round. Now that I think about it, I really didn’t wanna fill that position.
*picks up new stack of applicants and smiles*
OMG girl! Where are you going to find a straight man that can decode "I'm fine" AND watch the soaps with you.
ReplyDeleteI think you may have to engineer him yourself!
OMG, shoe size!! (I had to cross my legs when I read that line!)
ReplyDeleteI've been in another world and haven't had time to read or comment on blogs. So I was so happy when I opened you up and rea this clever essay. Very creative. As usual!
