Hi,
Last week I placed a couple of ads in more than one section, but placed appropriately, which read as follows:
| Quote: | Successful late 30's Gentleman requires an attractive, younger lady as Personal Assistant. Swansea area. The successful candidate will make herself available to work very closely with me approximately once a week, usually in my private office. No academic qualifications or certificated skills will be required for this undemanding but extremely rewarding role, however discretion and a sunny disposition are essential. Enthusiasm and creativity are also important as you will be required to deal personally with a range of urgent situations, and to take on board whatever points are raised by me when together. You will be expected to use your head frequently, so common sense will also be valued highly.
To apply for this rewarding position under me, please send a photograph to MisterSmyth@hotmail.com . I will be pleased to chat with prospective candidates and answer their questions ahead of a decision to meet in person, either on MSN (MisterSmyth@hotmail.com) or Yahoo Messenger (SmythIsLooking) |
This morning I find that they've all been deleted - but not by me.
I wasn't taking the piss. It's a genuine position, and I'm genuine about it. I didn't want to attract kids, or anyone vulnerable, and I don't want to hurt anyone. I know I'm a bad person - obviously - but my ads were funnier than they were filthy... and I think they made it pretty clear what I was looking for without being coarse about it. More importantly, I think the wording targetted my prefered age-group (mid 20's to mid 30's) appropriately.
So may I ask what the cause of the mass delete was? Did I word something wrong? Should I repost (as I said, this is a genuine job), or am I more a danger to society than those who post images of their cocks?
Regards
MisterSmyth |

Thanks for replying Bra Girl (nice name by the way - i'm new here).
I placed the ad in two of the Jobs categories and two of the Personals categories, both in Swansea and in Cardiff. Was that wrong? If it was, would it have been ok if I'd added them at a rate of just one each day?
Was my wording ok? Did I break any other rules about where I posted? |
