I honestly don't know what to think of this job offer, as seen on Craigslist:

I need to hire a person to play World of Warcraft with me. This person must be at least a Rival+ in arena healing and be able to assist me in getting to arena rating of 2000+. You will need to be able to play at least 3hrs per day during the week and 5hrs over the weekend. You will also need to be able to play a DK to farm honor for items. You *MUST* be trustworthy, helpful, have vent WITH MIC, and not have an holy-then-tho attitude. I have a priest account but you may have to move your healer over to Eitrigg PVE. Must be able to start ASAP (like NOW)!

  • Compensation: Pay is $50.00 (USD) per hour played and it goes up to $100 (USD) per hour played after rating of 1850 plus a bonus of up to $5000 (USD) for a rating of 2350
  • Telecommuting is ok.
  • This is a part-time job.
  • This is a contract job.
  • OK to highlight this job opening for persons with disabilities
  • Principals only. Recruiters, please don't contact this job poster.
  • Please, no phone calls about this job!
  • Please do not contact job poster about other services, products or commercial interests.

I honeslty don't know what to think about this job offer: whether to be amazed at someone so obsessed with wow (and yet so estranged from online friends) that they need to hire a healer, to regard it with a cynical "nice work if you can get it" attitude...or to gnashh my teeth because I no longer have a WoW account.
