Job Posting: Insider Puppet Performer

Nope, this is not some sort of jab at Obama- this is a real job that is available through Oakland County Michigan government. Funded through property taxes and stimulus money, Oakland County is looking for a candidate for a Summer Seasonal Program Specialist opening.

This candidate must have at least six (6) months experience in a supervisory or administrative capacity in a parks, recreation and/or program setting and have at least six (6) months experience in producing and performing in puppet shows and must have completed two shows. That doesn't narrow it down at all, now does it?

So, if you know someone already working in government who has performed two puppet shows, there yet another job opportunity available for them. Sadly, there are no jobs posted yet for existing Presidents who have only performed one puppet show, but I am sure that the stimulus has some money set aside somewhere for that.

Oh, and this puppet show job is a pretty good job too- it pays $13.51 an hour to put on puppet shows for children, with a supervisor on a nice salary to manage this person. And soon this government will be managing (or mismanaging) your health care decisions with your money (what's left of it).

So, if you are an existing parks employee who has put on more than 2 puppet shows and don't have any felonies, there is a job for you- contact Oakland County Human Resources for more information.
