Hot Dog! A Dream Job!


This is exciting stuff for aging boomers!  The folks at Oscar Mayer have announced that they're now seeking a qualified "Hotdogger" to be the next driver of their totally cool Wienermobile.  The job begins in June and the company is accepting applications for this dream gig until January 31.  The "condiments" that come with the job include what the Oscar Mayer folks refer to as a "competitive" salary, benefits, cool clothing and a company car like no other.

"Look ma, I am a wiener!"
  As the most car centric generation in history, we Boomers consider the day we got our driver's license to be the day life began.  We loved and still care about our wheels.  If you were a teen in the 50's, 60's or even 70's a major component of your social life revolved around aimless cruising and listening to tunes.  The opportunity to return to those days of yore while driving an iconic and delicious looking sausage around the United States will be a dream come true for some lucky guy or gal.  To apply for the job check out the company website where requirements for the assignment are spelled out in detail.  A four-year degree in public relations, journalism, communications, advertising or marketing are at the top of the list.  Though not specified it would seem that a genuine appreciation for tubed meats and a verifiable diagnosis of permanent arrested development would be far more important than any old college degree.  Party animal credentials will be thoroughly checked!

WARNING:  I have already applied for this sweet deal and am anticipating a congratulatory call from  Mr. Oscar Mayer himself just as soon as the company ceases accepting all those other applications.   Should I be cheated out of what would appear to be my destiny, let me be the first to call shotgun.


The ultimate wiener roll


Other than needing some fuzzy dice, this baby is ready to hit the road.
