Call for Elephant or Maker of an Elephant

Searching for a job can be frustrating, tiring, boring, draining, but I found it highly entertaining for just a short moment today.

I am signed up for an online job list that focusses on jobs in the Arts. Everyday I have been getting several emails of vacancies in the UK and there has only been one, so far, that I am interested in. I applied for it last week.

Today I received another one of those emails. It is one that is worth mentioning. It really stood out. In fact, I think I might reply to it, because I think I might have seen an elephant in my kitchen cupboard last night!

See below for email!

Call for Elephant or Maker of an Elephant

This is a very urgent call out. we are looking for a very big carnival
type elephant, we are going to be comissioning an artist to make one
unless anyone out there already has one. The elephant needs to be
operated by 2 people and will only be used once so won't need to last
for years and years! it needs to be in a fairly cartoonish style and
will need to be coloured in a specific turquoise coulour (we are happy
to do this, however it needs to be done). Please if you are interested
get in touch by the end of Wednesday 28th
