This is an actual job application that
a 75 year old senior citizen submitted to Walmart
in Arkansas. They hired him because he was so funny..
NAME: George Martin
SEX: Not lately, but I am looking for the right woman
(or at least one that will cooperate)

But seriously, waterer's available. If I was in a
position to be picky, I wouldn't be applying here
in the first place.
DESIRED SALARY: $185,000 a year plus stock options
and a Michael Ovitz style severance package. If that's
not possible, make an offer and we can haggle.

better suited to a more intimate environment.
MAY WE CONTACT YOUR CURRENT EMPLOYER?: If I had one,
would I be here?

I may already be a
winner of the Publishers Clearing House Sweepstakes,
so they tell me.
DO YOU SMOKE?: On the job - no, on my breaks - yes.
WHAT WOULD YOU LIKE TO BE DOING IN FIVE YEARS?: Living
in the Bahamas with a fabulously wealthy dumb sexy

DO YOU CERTIFY THAT THE ABOVE IS TRUE AND COMPLETE
