Thoughts from an American turned Canadian in Montreal.

No time
But I wanted to show the sign that made me burst out laughing yesterday. They're looking for a boss boy part time on weekends. I wonder how much a boss boy pays? And really? You need a resume to get a job busing tables?
I want a job as a Boss Driver. It would be fun to drive a Yellow school Boss. I see Torn has his work cut out for him teaching the English to French Canadians. ed
Personally I charge 150 euros an hour. I guess a future busboy's employer would be interested in details such as name, phone number, work experience if any... you know, stuff normally found on resumes.
This past week in Peru has been great for signs. Today in a factory bathroom, it was, "Learn to be civilized. Don't climb on the toilet to do your business and remember to shut the stall door."
That sign is great.
ReplyDelete"Boss" boy...that's just great.
ReplyDeleteThat terms makes my imagination runs wild @_@

ReplyDeleteOoooh, I thought it meant a boy for the boss....wow...how lucky would THAT boss be? :)
ReplyDeleteHUGS...
How interesting they used curriculum vitae instead of resume which I thought was more French.
ReplyDeleteI miss Montreal!
ReplyDeleteLOLs
ReplyDeleteI could be a boss boy. No, wait, that's BOSSY boy. Yeah, that's it. And I do have a solid resume to support the bossiness.
ReplyDeleteYeah I thought a CV was for more academic jobs. Maybe they only want bus boys with published articles in top bus boy journals.
ReplyDeletesomeone needs to call the Language Police - how dare they steal and bastardize an English word for their own devices

If they want a Boss Girl, I'm there. I love telling men what to do.
ReplyDeleteMy mind wandered into the realm of fantasy there for a bit. A boss boy does what, again? Oh, right.
ReplyDeleteDefinitely fantasy fodder in that sign. What would be on a "boss boy's" resume? How much bossing he's done?
