A man went to Harley Street in London, having seen an advert for a
Gynaecologist's Assistant.

Knowing that nowadays, job advertisers aren't able to discriminate
against the applicant's gender, he was very interested, so he went in
and asked the Clerk for details.

The Clerk pulled up the file and read: "This job entails preparing
ladies for the Gynaecologist. You will be responsible for helping them
out of their underwear, laying them down and carefully washing their
private areas, applying shaving foam to the necessary parts and
removing all unwanted foliage, and finally, you'll be required to rub
in soothing oils, in preparation for the Gynaecologist's examination.”

Then she told him “The annual salary is £65,000 and if you're
interested, you'll have to go to Manchester."

"My goodness!", exclaimed the man, "Is that where the job is?".

She answered, "No Sir, that's where the end of the queue is..."

Chances are - given the level of interest - they will be able to get together a shortlist of 4 or 5 high potential candidates for second interviews (or possibly an assessment day?) fairly easily. Therefore anybody queuing anywhere beyond say, Daventry, is quite frankly wasting their time. Of course, this may also be the unintended consequence of the government's policy of requiring those in receipt of JSA to prove that they are actively seeking work. Either way, I'm surprised I heard about it on here first, and not on the news.

I'm sorry, I find this hard to believe. Even in these days of high unemployment and zero hours contracts, even in Gideon's dreams, surely a queue wouldn't be that long.

If it was broadly 200 miles to Manchester and each person in the queue took up about 2ft of space then wouldn't that be about 1/2 million people applying for the job? Would take days-months. Where would they hunker down?
