"The gods too are fond of a joke." - Aristotle

***

An ad in My Favourite Periodical I was amused by, and which answers the age-old question: how do you advertise a job you can't tell people about?


"Where else could you barter in a bazaar, expose a terrorist network and brief Whitehall?

Please do not discuss your application with anyone"


Not only is the tagline cute, the testimonial does not give a last name (hell, the first name is probably fake) or the current posting and the past postings are described in a suitably vague fashion.

The Singaporean equivalent will probably be: "Where else could you pakat in a pasar malam, pass on intelligence to Malaysia and break up Opposition protests?"

(Incidentally this was scanned using my Canon N656U scanner which is more than 9 years old and still working fine)
