    Funny Craigslist Ad

    I can't find the funny Craigslist ads thread, so I thought I'd post one that I found today:

    "I am looking for a good babysitter to watch 3 children at least twice a week. This may include transporting kids from school. Must LOVE animals and children. The hours would be from morning until late afternoon.

    Candidates for this position would need their own trasportation, a clean driving record, have references, know at least 2-3 characters off of Spongebob and be flexible with where the children are watched at."


    Spongebob, huh? Glad to see their priorities in order! What if I just know two characters? ::

    Funny! I only know one of the Spongebob characters so I'd be out!

    I also like how she states that you must LOVE animals and children; you'd think she'd list children before animals

        I keep thinking that maybe one day she'll be like "today you have to watch the kids at the 7-11 on the corner".

            Okay so I dug up this old thread to post this ad I found on CL. I thought it was funny in an "uh-oh" kind of way. Enjoy.

            I need an energetic loving babysitter for three days a week. My kids are 9 & 8 and love to play outside and just do kid stuff.
            There current babysitter is very boring and there like little birds in a cage.

            Please e-mail me if you have room for two kids wednesday through friday and let me know what your rates are and leave your name and number.
            I'm hoping to pay $100 a week for 3 days but i'm willing to pay a little more to make sure my kids are happy.
            So in other words your kids are demons ::.

                  I won't flame you but I might get flamed too right along with you because I agree 100%. To me it says "Hi, I'm a teenager and I have a kid so I can't work because I have to take care of my infant. So can I watch your kids for money because I can't do anything else in my current situation and apparently I need an income to raise a child"

                              How about this?

                              I pay $50 per week,or $200 a month. Flexible hours not more than 6 hours per day and not more than 6 days per week. I pay cash! My son is an infant very well behaved. Does not cry except when needing feeding, and diaper change. He is easy to take care of. I love watching him myself, but need help because of time to complete my college homework. He is an Angel!
