Jobs I’m not applying for, Episode #3 (Channukadvent Calendar Day 3)

A now not-so-new column documenting one sarcastic so-and-so’s hunt for full-time employment.

  • Role: Programme and Paranoia Manager
  • Employer: Campaign Against Anti-Semitism
  • Employer’s history: This group of self-appointed activists see themselves as the only thing standing between Anglo-Jewry and the gas chamber. They shot to prominence around a year ago after running an unscientific survey which concluded that everyone in the world is an anti-Semite. It was later painstakingly demolished in an episode of BBC More or Less.
  • Salary: £25,000 plus commission on anti-Semitic incidents provoked
  • Application process: Candidates must write 300 words on the topic, “What is lacking in the response to anti-Semitism today?” (Correct answer: ‘a plethora of Nazi comparisons’.)
  • Advantages: Opportunity to be scared witless full-time: like a ghost train that they pay you to ride
  • Disadvantages: being scared witless full-time

24 times we reached peak Jewish Chronicle (Channukadvent Calendar Day 2)

Buzzfeed recently ran a listicle: 22 times we reached peak Guardian. It featured headlines such as ‘The avocado is too everywhere to be aspirational’, ‘How not to let kale ruin your marriage’ and ‘George Osborne ruined my yoga retreat’.

But that just shows how anti-Semitic they are to choose a non-Jewish newspaper as their focus.

To remedy that for Day 2 of our famous Channukadvent Calendar, and indeed to go two better, Gabrielquotes dot org dot uk is now proud to present:
