my gumtree advert
Dear Gumtree
I am looking for a job
I will not accept applications from companies that litter job seeker websites with the following words and phrases:
"we choose the person not the paper"
"can do attitude"
"the philosophy of our business is codified by the following seventy three phrases....."
"work hard...play hard"
"Attractive staff....experience unnecessary".
Please keep in mind that given my limited social calendar and the social skills of a particularly shy two year old, work could very well fill that gaping void that separates me from an inevitably slow and pointless death.
On a more personal level it should be noted that while I am gay this in no way qualifies me to be gawked at by over-paid city workers in a bar in Soho while wearing a t-shirt that would look too small on my twelve year old niece.
I await your response,
rough_trader
