One legacy of an earlier period of job seeking is a daily job-vacancies email I receive from Monster.com. I've never bothered to suspend it (partly out of laziness and partly out of the feeling that, who knows, maybe something worthwhile would come along), and I usually take a quick look through the offerings.
Today, among the usual openings for 'Lead Consultant SAP', 'Junior Berater für den Bereich Business Development' and 'Leiter, Abteilung IT-Entwicklung' was one that I've never seen before.
Clown.
This is for German-speakers only it seems, (the full-time, permanent position is in Würzburg), judging by what is probably the most poetic job description I've ever seen.
But I note that along with a salary of €20-25k it offers not only a costume but also a tent ('Zelt').
What more could you want?

Ein Job für mich, vielleicht?
Hast Du einschlägige Berufserfahrung? Die wird nämlich erwartet.
Würzburg's a nice town, though. It's worth considering...
But I guess I just don't like Kinder all that much.
Ja habe ich – niemand nimmt mich ernst.
Oh Francis, Du alter Jammerlappen! :-)
Second nature, innit. Ich bin Brite.
Tears of a clown?
Whatever happened to the old stiff upper lip, then?
Stiff upper lip? A decade of ZanuLab rule has knocked that out of us, for sure. The nation has gone distinctly flabby, and in more ways than one.
"Flabby", huh?
I reckon someone's fishing for compliments ....
My flatmate is unemployed. He got a job description from the Job Centre for the post of Santa Claus in a store. The salary wasn't much, but there was an inducement:- "May lead to permanent position."
