This job advertisement went viral after screenshots of the ad were posted online. The ad describes a vacant position with some unusual requirements for applicants. The situation necessitates an applicant who "have watched the TV show madmen and think the way the women are treated in the office is perfect (sic) acceptable." and mentions that the owner can be "erratic and contradictory."
The screenshots were posted to Reddit's r/antiwork subreddit, a community where Redditors gather to share stories and experiences of mistreatment in the workplace. Threads like this are pretty at home on the subreddit and are often transferred to increase visibility and spark discussion surrounding poor or disadvantageous working conditions. Horrible bosses are often a hot topic of conversation.
Commenters have been overwhelmingly appalled at the advertisement, and the reactions caused the company that posted it to withdraw the listing. Some commenters remarked that this posting reads like an act of revenge done by an assistant who has grown tired of this owner's behavior.
"If it's real, it was made by the last assistant on her way out," remarked LazyZealot9428. "Do you like being harassed? Would you do it for $20/hour? Then this job is for you!" commented another user.
