So you spent tens of thousands of dollars on a journalism degree from a good school and now you’re pulling espresso shots for suits like some kind of industry cliché. Well, pull yourself up by your bootstraps, kid. CTV’s got a job that you are eminently qualified for!
Wait, you’ve got experience with Otis 1918 Vintage Elevators, right? What, did you skip lecture that day or something?
According to this job ad, posted yesterday, qualified applicants for the position of elevator operator at CTV’s offices in the Masonic Temple at Yonge Street and Davenport Road will, in addition to equipment expertise, possess “good interpersonal and communications skills for conversing with guests and employees.” Oh, and you should also have the ability to pay attention to detail. People hate being let off on the wrong floors.
Now go get ’em!
