Job Market So Bad 260 People Applied To Scoop Poop

How bad is the job market?Here’s Mike “Mish” Shedlock of Sitka Pacific with an update:

Want a job scooping poop? 260 people do. They applied for a job opening on Craigslist posted by Guy Palumbo, owner of Roscoe’s Ranch, a 24-kennel outfit.

You want to be the kennel helper? You’re on the hook for the poop. You’ll spend part of every day scooping it up (if all digestive systems work as designed) or mopping it (when they don’t).

“Usually I get high-school kids applying. Or maybe a college kid for the summer. I’ve never seen anything like this.” says Palumbo.

Who now wants to be a dog-kennel assistant?
