Are you a “physically fit male” who is “MUSCULAR, and is willing to dress in Dragon Ball Z attire for 2-3 hours”? If so, then boy do I have a job for you.
Oh yeah, you’re going to have to hold some appetizer trays. But that shouldn’t be a problem for a Super Saiyan, right?
Speaking seriously now, check out this funny Craigslist ad someone put up for a going away party in New York:
LOOKING FOR PHYSICALLY FIT MALES TO ACT AS DBZ WAITERS AT MY PARTY
I am having a going away party because I am leaving to study abroad in Japan for one year. I wanted to go out with a bang, and am trying to put together a ridiculous and fun engagement.
I need someone who is MUSCULAR, and is willing to dress in Dragon Ball Z attire for 2-3 hours holding trays of appetizers. Trays shall be held as if you were going to release a massive power attack (see attachment for example).
The poster will not, however, be able to pay the Dragon Ball waiters. You see, the poster needs to save up as much money for the trip! But they’re hoping that they will be able to make up for it:
What I can’t pay I can make up for in free food and a good time. Since I will be staying overseas for so long, I need to save as much money as I can; most of the entertainment and features of my party are going to be obtained through friends and family, so it won’t cost me much.
I am reaching out to those who have kind hearts who will do this at minimal cost to me in order to help me retain my money so that I don’t go broke in Asia, but also so that I can leave America with a memorable experience.
On top of all this, they want to make sure you know they’re not looking for any ‘ol six-pack. They want you to be ripped, judging from this picture that accompanies the ad:
Dang. That’s very demanding… but, you know, not just anyone can be a Goku waiter.
You can check out the rest of the New York ad here. I’m genuinely curious if anyone will go for it, just for laughs.

How bizarre! I also happen to be a PHYSICALLY FIT MALE WHO IS WILLING TO ACT AS DBZ WAITERS AT YOUR PARTY
On a somewhat related note – I’d like to share a Gumtree post that’s been doing the rounds on Facebook lately that is far more interesting/distrubring than this one. Read on…
Night Time Watcher Required, $30 p/h neg.
Hello,
I would like to preface this by saying that this is not a joke and all joke replies will be deleted. If however, you want to make some extra cash and perhaps have a background in theatre then this is for you.
What is required?
I’m looking for somebody to sit in my room at night and watch over me as I sleep. Recently I have had a lot of trouble sleeping and I think it would be comforting if I knew somebody was there.
I’d also like it if you were to wear a small owl costume as you do so. I have always found great comfort in the idea that owls are the natural lookouts of our world and so it would really help. I’d be prepared to pay you up to $40 if you were to wear the costume and maybe $35 if you don’t want the costume but will stick a feather or two to your forehead.
The shift times will vary and i’m really looking for a rotating roster of one or two permanent ‘staff’. I was thinking that the ideal candidate would be able to cover 3 nights between the hours of 11pm – 6 am.
I will provide you one museli bar if you get hungry but no dinner breaks. I’d prefer if you didn’t face me when you ate the bar as I would find that very offputting even if i’m already asleep. You can of course use my bathroom. But only two hours after I fall asleep to ensure that I won’t suddenly wake up to find the room empty.
Please no time wasters,
Ban,
Blacktown Area.
I hope for his sake he is trolling, if he isnt’t then i think he has some issues that need sorting.
Pretty sure it’s trolling – one muesli bar for 7 hours work!? Outrageous.
You also get paid per hour. Take the muesli bar as your food allowance rather than the actual pay 😛
Edit: Just realised my comment makes me sound like the OP of this ad, but I’d like to clarify that I’m not.
why is this weird? So what if i am comforted by someone watching over me while I sleep?
I couldn’t do a saiyan but I could easily do Majin Buu if he likes?
But I think he wants you to kind of be in character…? You would just eat the food then.
Not bad pay if you think… $280 per night, and all you gotta do is watch someone sleep.
Grab an iPad and play away during the night.
no ipads. too bright
