Perks!
Hello,
interested human being*
Thank you for your interest in LostBrain. Listed below are the
ways that you and your family can help make LostBrain a better
place.
Positions:
Columnist
We really, really need weekly columnists. Think Dave Barry on
speed. Writers with an edge, someone who doesn't think the only
humor on the web is a ripped-off Onion headline, or that portable
toilet cartoon. If you're the next Sedaris, won't you please let
us exploit you?
Copy
Editor
If you've read through this site, you're aware that we're in desperate
need of a copy editor. However, this is a thankless, boring job
that requires looking up things like, "Is shithead one or
two words?" (I swear, I'm not making that up - I looked it
up the other day).
Cartoonist
If you're tired of putting your humorous drawings on a bathroom
wall, consider putting them on LostBrain instead. Advantages include
a better smell for your readers, an audience that isn't defecating
while reading your work and the slight chance that it will not
be covered up by crude drawings of genitals.
Weekly News-Recapper
If you're good at making jokes of the big news stories of the
week, this job is for you. If you can make something funny out
of "Michigan Man Kills Five, Shoots Self" you've found
a calling.
Designer
Can you use Dreamweaver, Fireworks and/or Freehand? Do you have
any interest in designing for free to enhance the design of LostBrain?
If so, we'll start groveling whenever you're ready.
Qualifications:
If you're genuinely funny, you're hired. If you have previous
funny things you've written, drawn or photographed, please send
them our way so we
can gauge your funniness, and then post them on the site without
your approval (kidding).
Seriously,
if you're creative and willing to share your work with the online
community, you're a viable candidate. For more information on
writing guidelines, click here.
Employee Perks:
We can't pay you. We're in the process of making money
with fraudulent scams with Amazon.com, but until then, we're actually
PAYING to keep this site going.
But, if you're ever in the Chicago, New York or the Washington
D.C. metropolitan areas, one of our editors would be glad to treat
you to french fries. You have to pay for your own burger and drinks.
PLUS, LostBrain is one of the web's most widely read humor publications,
and is also one of the fastest growing-not only in age but in
height, as statistics show us that LostBrain's core audience consists
of budding European basketball prodigies. Score.
