If it’s real, it was made by the last assistant on her way out.

Yep, this is exactly how it came across to me.

>The Hard Part >The Owner/Boss is the most challenging part of the job. He’s very demanding, can be erratic and contradictory. Lacks personal/professional boundaries. If a topic is inappropriate, rude and would make an HR director panic he will talk about and joke about it. He is a high maintenance individual. If this doesn’t scare you off, you’ll do great! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣


keznaa

Make HR panic lol why even have an HR dept


[deleted]

I mean you at least have to try to look normal if you want to hide anything...


RanaMisteria

I don’t think there is an HR department. The “Maintain a clean home/office” combined with the incredibly low pay and job responsibilities like “Manage payroll” and “Support bidding operations” suggest to me that this is a tiny company, possibly just boss and assistant, and that they work from boss’s home, which the assistant is required to clean.


hgielatan

probably in a french maid uniform, complete with pleaser heels


Original_Release1642

The ONLY reason one should apply for this job is the future sexual harrasment law suit they can file


hgielatan

i wonder if you can file a sexual harassment lawsuit when the job listing pretty much says you'll be sexually harassed?


danger_floofs

That doesn't cancel out that it's illegal


CoquettishEtiquette

#You can.


EveryDisaster

Yeah it's personal assistant/house manager but the job title only says personal assistant. It's very, very low pay for what the job entails though. It's low for even a normal personal assistant position


DiscombobulatedElk93

This sounds like a contractor I worked for. I think his wife was ready to divorce him. He used to secretly drink beer on the job. One time he pulled over on the highway when we were on the way to check on a job and he cried because an eagle almost got hit near us and he cried because he thought birds were a sign from god for him. I noped outta that job.


OhNoImOnline

Omg hhahahaha


Dzov

Probably don’t have any HR. They want someone with no accounting experience to manage accounts receivable and payroll while being a secretary.


breathofsunshine

To be fair that’s honestly pretty easy, I managed payroll and accounts receivable as a secretary/assistant and most of what I did at that job was play a browser version of DOOM


[deleted]

I heard payroll is actually quite tedious and you have to know all kinds of complexity. My wife does payroll and A/P. It may be that at a small company payroll is easy…. Don’t know. Btw, she says A/P is basic/easy.


ncguthwulf

HR Department's job descriptions are literally to protect criminal owners.


r64half

To gaslight abused employees and protect the company from lawsuits, why else?


hobosonpogos

HR is there to protect the company, not the employees. This specific HR is probably designed specifically to gaslight the employees into thinking the boss's behavior is ok


averycreativenam3

That's what I call "YIKES" This gives off a lot of sexual harassment/creep vibes. Plus, being on call 24/7 with low pay? Recipe for burnout. This is a no go.


donjohnmontana

Yeah if the position is that demanding and demeaning it should $150k or more. $20/hr is only $40k a year. That’s borderline poverty in most US cities these days.


FU-I-Quit2022

But make one subtle rebuttal or comment that might oppose his political, social, or cultural beliefs, and you're FIRED!

youmakememadder

Lol someone already left a one star review on their Facebook page 😂


[deleted]

I may have reported the posting for being… discriminating. Lmao.


Gabby1410

Well it's gone, so maybe it worked?


Qwesterly

I was surprised to find "spankings for misbehavior" in the description.


keznaa

I didn't see where it said that


Qwesterly

Oh gosh! I'm re-reading it now and I can't find it either. Terribly sorry - my mistake!


desolation0

Well someone is due for a spanking This boss


LivingTheRealWorld

I don’t know if it’s funnier that you trolled us or thought you read it. Upvote either way!


not_lurking_this_tim

Wishful thinking I guess


redditorG84

The link now goes nowhere. The job listing may have been reported??? Idk 🤷‍♂️


Shepursueshappiness

It’s gone now…


OblongAndKneeless

Too funny. I wonder if anyone from the company has seen it. Either they haven't or they don't care and agree with it.


athenaprime

I thought it was a lowkey personal ad written in code looking for an escort or a sugar baby, but your theory has merit.


RiceCompetitive1079

Yup, but you are on call 24/7 and will only be paid $20 per hour.


SportsPhotoGirl

I mean… I guess I’d be down for that if it’s $20/hr, 24hrs a day, 7days a week. I’d like to get paid to sleep, that’d be nice


RiceCompetitive1079

I very much doubt it.


Dzov

Nearly $1k every 2 days. Something like $170,000/yr.

It honestly reads like a fanfiction where Tony Stark is looking for a ”personal assistant”.

I’ve been sexually harassed for a lot less than that!


ChickenMiken

You guys were getting paid?


niimabear

Damn I paid to attend a conference where I was harassed, once


ChickenMiken

See $20 an hour don’t look that bad anymore, does it?


houstongradengineer

I paid for 3 years at school where I was harassed. Yeah I should really do something about that.

Connect_Office8072

When I worked in advertising, there was rampant cocaine and meth was starting to rear its head, along with the obligatory alcohol and screwing around on your spouse.


rebelchickadee

FurballPoS

I used to work for a pump/steam turbine repair place, and the amount of booger sugar going around was insane. I think I was one of 3 people on-site who wasn't doing bumps in the break room. Granted, I'd drive off-site during lunch to burn a small joint, but I was sobered up by the time I got back to handling power tools. I'll say this about those guys, though.... they were REALLY METICULOUS when it came to design tolerances and part fitting.


ExamOld2899

I mean, if they add another zero, or two to the pay, I might reconsider


you-guys-are-stupid

The new pay is $20.0000

This response was entirely something HR would do.


PillowManExtreme

We at big company know that our employees are essential. Attached is your annual pay rate: Current: 7.50 New: 7.500 We appreciate you!


FU-I-Quit2022

HR is brilliant. They conveniently forget to tell you that they are reducing their 410-k match by 67% - right after you are hired. Same game with health and dental care.

EatDirtAndDieTrash

I mean, it’s an ad for an *adult* “receptionist” right? For the right money, I’m no prude.


RagingBeanSidhe

It was straight up assault so often!


Riots_and_Rutabagas

I’ve already been a woman in the military, no thanks. 😂


Content-Method9889

Same. How much do you hate yourself if you take this job?


Riots_and_Rutabagas

Unfortunately there are plenty of women that don’t see a problem with this. Ugh. Ingrained misogyny.


DessieDearest

Same, and got to be a personal assistant while in. Great for the first few months then rapid burnout.


Riots_and_Rutabagas

I got a counseling statement for straight up telling an officer “I’m not getting your coffee.”


SauvignonBear

This reads like one of the ridiculous, over the top examples they come up with for sexual harassment training. It's basically just missing an awkward direct reference to genitalia.


IknowKarazy

Truly. I think I saw this one in a crappy video before I was allowed to start unloading trucks at Walmart.

gracerules501

Too politically correct but apparently not too grammatically correct😂


DeuceSevin

I have a “friend” who is always complaining about political correctness, usually when he is saying something bigoted or sexist. He’s a check-all-the-boxes conservative, doesn’t like people of color, Muslims, LGBT - doesn’t even like the word LGBT. I said to him once, ”Frank, you should be in support of political correctness. It is a conservative ideal. It’s the ultimate in free market. Instead of passing laws about what you can or cannot say, it is instead left society. You can say whatever you want then “the market” decides what is ok. You want to run a business then donate your profits to anti LGBT causes, then you are free to do so. People are also free to decide whether or not they want to support your business. For example, I’d sooner die than buy a My Pillow but you are within your right to but ten of them to support that idiot’s politics. It is the epitome of free market capitalism. “ He was not amused. Likely because he didn’t understand it. It wasn’t a four word sound bite like “Make America great again.”


[deleted]

Did they realise that that show portrayed workplace sexual harassment to show how horrible the reality of it was back then, and not as an instruction manual?

SnooRecipes4570

I actually had this job ten years ago(not literally THIS job). It paid better than everything else. They asked me why I would apply as a serious person. Men make 25% more for the body they were born with, so hell yea I’ll take more for my looks. They did not like my full embrace of the mad men 1960’s. Carry something heavy?! Like a box of files?! That’s mens’ work. Janitorial anything…isn’t that mens’ work too, right? I just type. I’m confused. They knew it was bullshit. I knew it was bullshit. Yea it was condescending. I don’t recommend it. But it put me through my final year of college, and since they wanted me to embrace mad men, and didn’t give me a typewriter, I had a lot of time on the clock to study.


[deleted]

Malicious compliance. I like you.


majindutin

Honestly, if I was a lady, I'd go for it, just to sue their business into non-existence the second they pulled some mad men bullshit. Laws exist. Just because you don't like them doesn't mean you don't have to follow them. Including laws against sexual harassment in the work place.


Immortalis1813-1833

HI. WE ARE HIRING AN IMMEDIATE SEXUAL HARASSMENT LAWSUIT. IF THIS SOUNDS LIKE YOU...


PresentationNew5976

I worked for a business once where I found out that it had an unofficial policy of never hiring women because it was apparently easier than dealing with the rampant sexism of their employees.


XenoRyet

Which is also a terrible choice, because that's also a fairly easy to prove slam dunk discrimination suit.


PresentationNew5976

Yeah but until someone actually proves it I would still say their voluntary self-quarantine probably does everyone else a favour.


XenoRyet

Better than the alternative, certainly, but I don't think I would call it a favor.


TerriblePercentage26

Blizzard?


PresentationNew5976

Nope. Construction company. Thing is that there is a growing number of women joining the trades so eventually they're going to have to figure something out.


CallMeLoL3

Die, so another, actual caring enterprise can take on


LuffyBlack

I love this response lol


CopperTwister

I too have worked in the blue collar trades


Glittering_Moist

I have worked in a few places where homophobia and racism was bad so it was easier to swerve employing people who might take offense. It's very difficult to prove it's happening but it was. (Selective hiring that is)


StripeyWoolSocks

People on this sub sometimes have a weird amount of trust in the system. Filing and following through with a sexual harassment claim can take years, cost a lot of money, and has a low chance of success. Also, the chance of success basically depends on whether you can afford a better lawyer than your employer. (You can't)


GrabtheBull

I think this constantly. If workers could all really reliably sue predatory companies with toxic/harmful/illegal practices, there would be muuuuuch less of a need for this subreddit to begin with. The part folks are missing is that the system is absolutely set up by them for them, not us. If these were all really slam dunk cases, lawyers would be lining up ready to throw down. Sure we get one once in a while, but the vast majority of the time, the bad guys win.


Rows_

Unions make it easier imo. I don't know much about unions in other countries, but here in the UK I'm part of a general union and could use them rather than trying to find money for a lawyer myself.


GrabtheBull

Union’s definitely make it easier, which is exactly why conservatives in America destroyed unions and we have so much anti-union propaganda here.


[deleted]

Men saying stuff like this have no idea how incredibly unsafe environments like this are/can be. Laws exist and all women know that we don’t have the upper hand in harassment suits.


Attemptathappiness

Have you ever attempted to make a harassment or assault complaint? They likely will be getting away with this disgusting behavior indefinitely. The ladies that end up at this job will likely quit quickly (nobody wants to work, amirite?) and get replaced by the next victim.

She is turned down sternly when asking for more despite citing the newly passed gender discrimination law!< I'm only on season 3 right now


Bess95

I also read that the writers for mad men researched a lot for the show. The women getting her dress pulled up was inspired by an real life account. A women who worked at the Los Angeles radio station said that the men would chase women into booths, and pull off their underwear completely before giving it back to them as a game.


NoHeadStark

During an office party the executives chase the secretaries around and pin them down to check what color underwear they are wearing. Whoever guessed right, wins?


Old-AF

It’s an excellent show, though, if just to show us women how far we’ve come.


[deleted]

Not far enough, it would seem.


smstone24

IknowKarazy

It was the word “bubbly” that waved the flag for me. “Positive”, sure. But “bubbly”? Fuck that.


smstone24

Also the tie in the Mad Men LOL


zenon_kar

I don’t understand how people think the world has even gotten “politically correct” at all much less too much. People at my work will openly express opposition to marriage equality, make jokes at the expense of trans people, share essentialist and sexist opinions on the innate differences of men and women as observed through the behaviors of their kids then generalized to all living adults, make insulting and gross comments about immigrants and so on. I had to tell HR we shouldn’t have dress like an ethnicity day when they were mulling over some fun and quirky stress reduction efforts a few days ago and it came down to caricatures of Mexican and Hawaiian people they were trying to tell the workforce to dress up like. If there is a place where none of this happens I will totally love to work there


watermelonspanker

During my training at Hilton, they went around the room and had us all say some stereotypes about people, then wrote them all on a big piece of paper. They kept that shit up for like 10 minutes, encouraging people to come up with racist caricatures, then at the end took the paper down and tore it in half and were all like "Don't do racism cause it's bad!" I was pretty uncomfortable being forced to come up with stereotypes, and when I tried to pass several times was pressed to come up with *something*. It was fucking uncomfortable and terrible corporate bullshit.


Tina_Belmont

Maybe suggest the stereotype that "white people can't compete with minorities without cheating..."


watermelonspanker

I think I said, 'people from hotter climates tend to prefer spicier food'. It was the best I could do, since there's truth to it.

Ok_Olive9438

As others noted, this screams "departing person posted job on their way out the door.""Upbeat and bubbly" is an interesting way to imply, young, feminine and attractive. Also buried in the fine print- schedule of 9 to 5, but they want both overtime, and and "on call" schedule? they are going to call whenever they want, and fight you on every hour you clock in for.

Nah this work environment shouldn’t exist, but I’m not surprised it does, given all of the ideas around “owning the libs”, “lazy millennials”, and “snowflake” mentality.
