My job description



"Executive Assistant"/Child-minder

Tasks:

1) Making travel arrangements

2) Compiling call lists.

Travel Arrangements
This job requires the patience of no less than twelve saints as you will be working closely with someone who is never wrong and who changes extensive travel plans on a daily basis. A comprehensive understanding of European travel opportunities will ensure success, particularly if the candidate can recite the journey times from any one station/airport in Europe to any other station/airport in Europe by the following means of transport: airplane, train, car, hovercraft, ferry and helicopter. Initiative in making travel arrangements is strongly discouraged.


Call Lists
Everyday your manager will ask for a call list, it is not possible to know whom from the previous day's call-list he has contacted so these lists become up to 25 pages long. Your job is to keep this going and present one everyday.

This is it.


Further qualities:
Any candidates with psychic abilities are especially encouraged to apply as low-level mind reading is a component of this job.
Open-minded attitude towards escorts is essential. Candidate must enjoy working with children.

Please note: this job is not a route to career progression.
