Because some job opportunities are truly too good to pass up, we want have an announcement for anyone looking to write the next great roman

Subject: Job Opp. at VOGUE Magazine

Date: Mon, May 16, 2005 12:07 pm



I just found out about a wonderful opportunity at Vogue Magazine. Anna Wintour - the editor in chief - is looking for an assistant. The salary is $24,000 + overtime. The assistant will be responsible for various administrative duties including answering the phone, scheduling her appointments, organizing her calendar, being a liason with designers, running errands, etc. She is looking for someone detail oriented, organized, responsible, personable with a very strong interest in fashion who is willing to work extra hours when needed. This is a great opportunity for someone interested in fashion and print media who wants to get her "foot in the door" at a major publication.

Benefits include liquid diets, psychological warfare, and, if you're lucky, breathing the same air as Karl Lagerfeld — a dream come true for any submissive, young waif. Good luck, ladies!
