A cartoonist friend-of-a-friend posted the following ad on CraigsList,
but the list owner deleted it twice. By simply substituting other
professions for artists, he shows just how ridiculous some of these
requests are. A nice bit of humor, on a serious topic!

Title: (creative gigs) Professional Artist Seeks Professional Work

Hi, I'm a professional artist. I'm looking for starving electricians,
plumbers and lawyers. I can't really pay you very much. Looking for
real "eager beavers". This could be a great piece of work for your
portfolio! Must be able to do quality work. I'm sure to get a lot to
responses so I'll be trying out a few of you to see how you work out
before I can choose the ideal candidate. If this works out, there will
be plenty of work for you in the future, and lots of exposure. To the
elements.

I can pay little if anything. I don't have very much money. Possibly
no pay whatsoever.
