It may not immediately strike some as a particularly humorous print ad. But it is certainly job search site Monster.com's intention to strike a cheeky note of levity in a new print ad that will appear in select newspapers Wednesday -- by which time a lot of people in various government jobs will have a much clearer sense of whether or not they will still have a job.
For those elected politicians who may indeed find themselves out of job, Monster.com hopes its ad from BBDO/New York will serve as a useful and friendly reminder that the job search site is there to help any and all government workers looking to transition to the private sector.
