The controversial “no Darren, Karen, baby wipes, or Debbie Downer” classified ads are ambiguous.
Philip Shortman, 35, is looking for an assistant manager at his dessert shop in Cumberland, South Wales, who “has habits of coke use, cracking or drinking problems and no mold under his fingernails”.
His Facebook plea to someone who “doesn’t have to be repeated over and over again” excited locals who called it “the best job ad ever.”
But others weren’t impressed by the hype, citing Philip’s past as an online con man who sold tens of thousands of non-existent items on eBay.
The job ad reads: “I’m looking for a great assistant manager who wants to work. Join us. You don’t need Karenth or Darenth, so stay away from wet wipes or Debbie Downer.
-I heard you’re rude and unprofessional, but it’s *** in a way, childish in a way, jump on the phone and dial 0121-go-f***. Not what I’m looking for!
He went on to appeal to applicants who were “stably capable of doing it” with “dedication and responsibility.”
Now seriously, if you have management experience in the hospitality industry, the minimum requirement is two years. No coke, cracking habits, or drinking problems. Or definitely anyone who wants to sell medicine through the store. For those without claws or talons like a samurai sword, I think this is a good start. After all, we are a food court, not Zanzibar,” writes Philip.
“There are a lot of things to ask of someone to fully commit, kick ass, and help grow an all-encompassing brand that works with us, rather than against us. I did it.”
“If that sounds like you, contact us. Our potential superstars don’t seem to have crossed the fence with lazy motivation, but for casual, one-off interviews. I want you to come.”
“I can’t even take my friends, cats and dogs to an interview or even walk out the door with a can of monsters in hand. I think you’ll understand.”
To end his anger, his boss didn’t ask anyone: “I just need to show that I’m applying for Universal Credit, and I’m not going to do that at all,” he added. Leave the school! “
Hoping for some results, he told “bitter people who don’t care about their thoughts and are uncomfortable with them” to “move on.”
Philip was last jailed in 2015, but the following year he launched Shorty’s, which sells desserts, drinks and snacks.
The store said it was offering free ice cream to rescuers in this morning’s heat wave.
Philip opened up about his past in a follow-up post online, saying it was “very sketchy and pointless.”
He once admitted that he was “a very selfish person stuck in a revolving door”, but then “had to work and transplant myself to solve my problem”. She became like this.
He writes, “It was one hell of a ride. I have polluted myself, my family, my family, but all I can do is keep going. What else can I do?”
