Assignment #44: Part XV
"Write The Perfect Job Ad You Wish You Could Find In The Paper"
HELP WANTED!
Seeking: A trustworthy and dedicated person to take care of our farm. We own a ten acre farm about 30 minutes outside of town, but we are moving and we're unable to take care of it. It's a family farm that we own and don't want to let go of. We're looking for a individual that can come live on our farm while we're out of the states and make sure that everything runs smoothly and happily.
No specific experience needed, just the capacity of love for our farm and our animals. We have two horses, ten chickens, a kinder goat, a couple cows, three pigs, a ton of kittens, and one of the cutest dogs you'll ever meet. Your duties would include taking care of the animals and general upkeep of the farm, garden, and house. We would take care of all expenses (i.e. animal food, your food, pay for your craft supplies, etc).
The house on the property is a five bedroom house with an inside pool and a roof jaccuzzi. There's also a lot of upper deck porches and a darkroom in the basement and lots of hammocks. I know this job requires a lot of attention and you may need some extra hands. Feel free to have whoever you want occupy the rest of the bedrooms.
It's been hard to find somebody for this position since we're not sure how long we'll be gone for. As of now, we're obligated to move for at least ten years. After that, we're not quite sure if we want to come back. If you're willing to make the commitment, there may even be a chance to buy the farm off of us in the end (for very, very cheap).
Please respond with your experience, a couple references, and what you would re-name all of our animals.

Assignment #44: Part XII
Write A Letter From Everyone Discovering Your Deepest Darkest Secrets
Dear Carly,
We've figured you out, there's no need to hide it anymore. All of your secrets are divulged and frankly, we wish we didn't know what we do. Here's a list of everything you've been trying to keep to yourself:
1. When you say you're doing homework, you're actually just taking a nap.
2. Your feet turn a really funny purple and red color when you get out of the bath or when you're cold.
3. You obsessively organize your room but tell us that you're just "tidying up."
4. You constantly misuse your knowledge of everyone's passwords.
5. Even when you're not taking a nap when you say that you're doing homework, you're reading things for pleasure rather than for school work.
6. You wish you had a better Spanish accent.
7. We know that you dislike the cold, but you say that the Portland winter makes you productive. We really know that you are always just waiting for anything above 50 degrees and until then, you're miserable.
8. You start projects and don't finish them because you say that you just wanted to start something new, but really, you just don't know how to finish them.
9. You think about being somewhere else more often than you think about how good here is.
10. You stopped being vegan a couple months ago and feel guilty about it, mostly when the right company's around.
11. You'd rather be doing something else but are too afraid to drop your current commitments.
12. You sing as loud as you can when you wash the dishes and when you think you're alone. We can hear you.
13. You watch a lot of internet T.V.
14. We know what you daydream about.
15. You know it'll never turn out like that, but you still think about it.
16. You're not tough, but you wish you were.
17. Yes, you were a cheerleader.
There's more, but we'd like to spare you the embarrassment. Just know that we know.
Sincerely,
Everyone.
