Ambassador Wanted

Washington DC

Description

The government of a large freedom-loving country is looking to fill the position of an ambassador to a remote, slightly inhospitable and somewhat volatile nation. The position is currently vacant as pieces of the previous holder are still being recovered. Benefits include an exciting work environment with the possibility of fomenting at least one coup, medical, dental, pension, and free repatriation of mortal remains. This notice supplements the usual ambassadorship recruitment process. Any applications will be fast-tracked to counter the current lack of interested applicants. Ideal qualifications include intimate familiarity with the political, economic and military developments in the Horn of Africa, previous diplomatic experience, an Ivy League education or at least fat campaign contributions to the current administration. However, we will settle for someone who has completed junior high. The sign-on package includes free cholera shots.
