New Orleans LA

Description

When you were up at Oberlin did they teach you how to deconstruct terrible poetry? Well then, this gig reorganizing paints and organizing shelving will be perfect for you. This gig is for today, Tues the 14'th and Wednesday the 15th of Dec. 10:00 a.m.. Where is this exciting gig, you ask? It is Uptown between Napoleon and Louisiana on the Lake side of St. Charles. (We are not posting the exact address street address because you can’t just show up. People actually do this and it drives us nuts.) ----- The Nola Mural Project is an Arts Organization founded on the idea that there is no such thing as too much art. Unfortunately there are too many ¼ filled paint cans in our shop. We also have a lot of Kobra Spraypaint that needs to be organized by color and put on shelves. The shelves have to be modified so the paint cans don't roll off. This is where your A+ in "SPAN-345 The Picaresque Novel" and your ability to use a power drill will come in handy. We also have many, many semi-empty buckets of paint that need to be married. What does that mean? Well, it’s like marrying ketchups. (Look it up.). You will also help organize a big tool cage. (This has nothing to do with the NMP by the way. Our warehouse is also used for our day job, real estate, and we need to have our tool cage organized.) By the end of tomorrow everything will be kind of like it was before, but more organized. Rocket science it ain’t. Please, please don’t just say, “I’m down,” or something like that. I don’t expect a resume and a cover letter but you gotta give me SOMETHING to go on. If you say something like, “I can do it,” that is not enough for me to make a snap judgement on how likely you are to show up and actually work. A pic would be nice. Why? So I can look for visual clues like whether or not you are reasonably groomed (good) or have one of those tear drop tattoos indicating you killed someone in prison (bad). Bonus points for cool hair (good.) At the end of the day (5:00 p.m.) you will be paid in cold, hard, Venmo. $20/hr. You must have Venmo. You must have already downloaded Venmo and have an account. It is not enough, at the end of the day, to say, “Well, I downloaded this here app, can you show me what to do? (Sorry, Boomer, I don’t have time to teach you how to use the internet.) While I’m at it…. Please have reliable transportation to get to the gig. I want to avoid the thing where I hire you and then you follow up with, “Okay, I have to get my friend’s sister to give me a lift but her screen is cracked and she can’t receive texts.” “I can’t reach my friend’s sister. Which bus takes me to where you are?” “Okay, I’m on my way.” (One hour later). “How much does this job pay?” (READ THE POSTING), “Can I work this afternoon instead of this morning?” etc. etc.. “What time do we get off?” (READ THE POSTING.). “Can I bring my child?” (NO). Sorry for the rant. It’s just that…..I’ve been hurt before. Anyhow, where was I? To save a lot of time please include your phone number in your response and let me know what time you will show up and that you will not flake. (That is in addition to something about yourself, maybe a pic, and all of your account numbers and PINS.) Seriously though, don’t leave us hanging. Those with some experience drilling and hammering and cutting, to the front. Those with Ivy League degrees to the back. (Except Cornell. Obv.) Godspeed.
