Are you a Whistler?
I am a multi millionaire who is looking for a musician to play a specific song when I go to sleep. The song will need to be played every 30 minutes on the dot for the duration of my slumber. The song is entitled "Winds of change" By a band called "The Scorpion". You need to be a good whistler to be able to get your pay. I know you might get hungry after the hours of playing the song so I will have the help put a little something together for you for breakfast. You are not to talk to me or make eye contact during any portion of your task. I have many dogs who are keen to any whistling and they will probably begin barking and/or howling while you perform. It doesn't bother me at all so don't stop please.
You are not allowed to tell anyone about your position working for me. I will of course require an entire background check on you and your family.
You will be whistling and also playing your instrument provided by me. It will be sitting next to my bed when you arrive. You will also need to sing the song while playing. I find this song to be the best song ever created and I have listened to it so many times that I find it mandatory while sleeping. I will not be the one talking to you on the phone about the job.
Don't get any smart ideas about stopping playing when you notice I have fallen asleep. I have recording devices that I listen to after you leave to ensure you have performed your task.
You will be given the proper attire upon entry to my home.
Thank you
|

Several other quotable phrases too, but the thing that strikes me right now: does he have an autoset CD deck that plays the song every half hour? Seems to be a pretty complex idea without human presence as it is. |

Now my question is, why did he waste non-existent time he had writing that when he could have been playing for another few non-existent minutes?
