At one time Craigslist was a great resource site when it came to looking for writing work. Then the recession punched us in the face like an angry drunk at a bar. Now, Craigslist has become a reservoir of bottom feeding opportunities. The bottom-of-the barrel vocations offered usually pay less than working at KFC. Either the work is in exchange for some idiotic ad revenue share on their start-up site, or they want free writing in exchange for “great exposure.” Hurrah! Great exposure always pays my bills.

Job-seekers are retaliating by basically losing their shit on Craigslist; either flagging these posts or throwing in their two-angry cents. Here are a few of my recent favorite retorts to Craigslist’s cavalcade-of-crap that’s being passed off as job opportunities.
