Austin.Craigslist: The 'Benefits' of This Job Are Intrinsic

Thanks to Reader Mike for sharing this amazing find on Craigslist's local job postings:


Wanted: Mustache maintenance personnel (Austin)
Date: 2009-10-11, 9:19AM CDT
Reply to: gigs-c8psq-1416302290@craigslist.org

I am looking for someone that is willing to spend about 3 hours per week maintaining my mustache. I am a very busy person and I do not have time to groom my silky mustache locks.

My mustache ranks with such mustache greats such as Wyatt Erp, Tom Selleck, and Burt Reynolds. I have build [sic] my exceptional persona off my superior facial hair, however, due to the constraints on my time I will have to shave it off or worse, grow a beard.

Skills:
1. you must have some experience cutting things such as paper, oranges or, preferably, your own hair.
2. You must be tall enough to reach my mustache mane. I am about 6 foot 7 inches.
3. You must not have a mustache. There can be only one and I know the competitive nature of the mustache type. I am not willing to risk a mustache saboteur, or the more common mustashaboteur.

Tools: If accepted, you will need to bring a small comb, small shears (no clippers) and a box to stand on (because of my impressive stature) and a broom to clean up my clippings.

You may not keep the clippings, those are mine.

I am willing to pay $20 per hour for your services.

Serious inquiries only.

Did Spencer grow a mustache I don't know about?

Maybe it's the 'Most Interesting Man Alive'?

Wait, he has a beard! Yeah, Once again Beards win.
It's all about the FULL experience. :)

BEST PART:
"I am not willing to risk a mustache saboteur, or the more common mustashaboteur."


---WOW, there are so many sub-ciltures these days

the 'MORE COMMON'? WTF I love this story

"There can be only one". Awesome.

Now, I feel like I should shave my Beard and become a CAREER mustache saboteur. Here I come France.

Cause I mean, sounds like the market for the more common mustashaboteur is flooded since the recession hit. You know, less people are able to afford razors. Get'n tough out there.

Is having your Stash trimmed tax deduction as a work expense?
