Brash 'help wanted' sign rules out quite a few people but gets huge response
William Rose Butchers in East Dulwich placed a poster in his window looking for staff, but he was very specific about what he was looking for.
The poster read:
No drama queens
No drunks
No drug addicts
No emotional wrecks
No mummys boys
No scruffs
Hardworking yes
The direct no-nonsense approach appears to have worked for the straight-talking butcher who found two suitable candidates that meet the criteria as well as attracting the attention of a myriad of news agencies curious about the man behind the sign.
Mr Rose told the Metro.co.uk: "I am by nature a very direct person so the advert was written to get maximum response and it did.
"95% of the reaction has been positive and been accepted as good humour and we’re giving a trial to two ladies this morning."
The now infamous butcher is sure to have picked up a few new customers thanks to the unexpected advertising and may need to hire again due to bustling trade.
We are sure there are a few strait-laced, hardworking baggage-free butchers awaiting their chance with bated breath!
