Help-wanted ad for nanny: `My kids are a pain'

NEW YORK - It was an unusually honest ad for a live-in nanny, a 1,000-word tome beginning, "My kids are a pain." But it worked, attracting a brave soul who's never been a nanny before.

I would never go to work for this woman!

I'd love to be able to read the entire ad! I think she sounds great ... having been a nanny before, I would have loved to have everything out in the open like that from the beginning ...If only all bosses were so honest upfront!

Very interesting. Not sure I'd work for her though.

Some other excerpts from the listing: "If you are fundamentally unhappy with your life, you will be more unhappy if you take this job, so do us all a favor and get some treatment or move to the Rockies, but do not apply for employment with us."

Nope! No way! Anyone who talks like this is probably not someone I want to work for. But you have to admire her for being honest about everything!
