To those who feel compelled to waste your time sending us your opinion (which we delete without reading) of this post perhaps you should grow up and use the time to apply elsewhere or maybe even to get an education of some sort.
Now that the disclaimers for all the dumb dumbs are out of the way welcome to all the professional adults to this post...
Party entertainment company seeking the following specific types to work performing clowns and full-body mascot character costumes and princesses and super hero's and singing telegrams at kids parties and other events every saturday and sunday.
PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING VERY CAREFULLY AND APPLY ONLY IF ALL OF IT APPLYS TO YOU SO YOU WON'T WASTE YOUR TIME.
Following the simple directions in replying to this post is a great way to show that you can and will follow directions. That makes you a serious contender for this job and replying in a way that shows you did not read or are ignoring the following directions will only result in not getting this job.
You must have a car, drivers license, and a social security card legal to work in the usa. You must be OK with driving all around Southern California and also we are in Van Nuys so you will drive here every friday to pick-up supplies for your saturday and sunday jobs and drive back here to return supplies on sunday night or sometime monday.
You must have every saturday and sunday available to work.
You must be very kid friendly and be great with them.
You must be able and totally willing to wear full-body mascot costumes such as elmo etc... please go to alosangelesclownandcharacter.com to see pictures of the costumes we wear at parties/events.
You must have or have the ability to create a loud booming powerful clear voice to animate the costumes you are wearing and to control and entertain all the kids at the party, even when you are wearing the more difficult costumes... this job REALLY does require people with great stamina and super high energy to be good at and to make money.
Also, at this time in addition to playing full-body characters and clowns, I am looking for gals who can play a princess... so the next females hired must be thin, attractive, and look in their 20's to pull-off the "princess look" that will please the customer. Let me be clear, do not respond and apply for only 1 or 2 of these jobs, respond ONLY if you are able and willing to play all 3: a full-body character a clown and a princess
Also, at this time I need guys who in ADDITION to playing full-body characters and clowns can also play superhero's... so the next males hired must be 5'8 to 6' lean with no protruding stomach to fit into the skintight spiderman and batman costumes (sorry no bulky body-builders because the costumes are made to fit only average lean guys). No facial hair either because clowns and batman and superman don't have mustaches or beards. Please let me be clear only respond if you are able and willing to play all 3 a super hero a clown and a full-body costume character, do not respond and apply for only 1 or 2 of these jobs.
IF you are hired for the above you can also get work doing singing telegrams which pay $50 for a 10 to 15 minute job. You must be excellent at comedy improvisation to do that job and you do not have to be a great singer just funny and fast on your feet. No one is ever hired only for singing telegrams unless you are a celebrity impersonator so please do not apply only for singing telegrams.
The good news is that IF ALL THE ABOVE IS REALLY YOU then this really is a great job!
You get great money. Many times its like being paid well to have fun and play with kids and be a kid yourself... $60 for first hour of a full-body show, $50 for first hour of clown show and $15 for each extra half hour if show goes over an hour and most shows are an hour. PLUS TIPS WHICH CAN BE GREAT IF YOU ARE GREAT!
You get a great acting/improvisational work-out. Anyone who has that super high energy and is great with kids can be easily and quickly trained to do all the simple yet very entertaining things we do at parties and each party is alway a little different obviously.
You get a great physical work-out... a lot of times its like being paid well to go to the gym and sweat off fat.
And you get tons of free unconditional love from all the kids that you entertain and make happy.
I am in business because I keep my customers happy and all of the above is exactly what my customers want at their parties so please do not waste time emailing about what they should want because I am ONLY concerned with giving them exactly what they do want which is clearly stated above. This is not personal it is of course only business.
IF THIS IS ALL YOU please email picture and phone number and note telling why you want to do this job and why you think you would be good performer. If you respond without picture or phone or note you will be ignored.
Again a picture and note telling why you think you would be a good performer and a phone number will get you a reply and if you send only one or 2 of those THREE things you will not be contacted.
Thank-you for your time.
