Apparently legit UK ad for nanny for haunted house.

(Via Facebook) As in, the family in question really is trying to hire a nanny who can get her head around the fact that the house is reputedly haunted.  They’re offering live-in boarding, fifty thousand pounds a year, and four weeks paid vacation. They’ve gone through something like five nannies in the last year. This apparently isn’t a joke, or anything.

Personally, I’d tell someone to take the job whether they believed in ghosts or not (I am rather skeptical about the existence of ghosts). If they don’t believe in ghosts, then there’s no problem at all. If they do believe in ghosts, well: the family is still living in that place and nothing’s happened to them. Perhaps there’s some trick to getting along with the ghosts, even if it’s something as simple (and hopefully, reflexive) like common politeness. The literature is full of anecdotes of people who happily live in allegedly haunted houses.

Besides, there’s that four weeks paid vacation. That’s quite a lot, really.

…OK, OK, I know perfectly well why people send me these things.
