EP 005: The Copy-Paste Conservatory

This week on Roast the Post, Jen and Paul stumble into a job ad that feels like it was assembled after midnight with one eye open and Ctrl+C permanently stuck. It’s supposed to be a part-time woodwind instructor role—except it keeps drifting into drums, then casually tosses in piano like it’s garnish. Along the way, we get into what “seasoned” really implies about pay, why “benefits” like casual dress are… not benefits, and the awkward reality of contractor gigs where the school may be one middle-person too many. If you’re hiring, this episode is a reminder that sloppiness signals culture... and if you’re job hunting, it’s a masterclass in reading between the (very messy) lines.
