Is it normal for a Personal Assistant to offer "Stress Relief Massage"?

[Laura]

Possible employer wrote: "I have a personal assistant role available for a few evenings a week.. jobs willinvolve, minor admin, phones, coffee making, stress reliueve massage etc...the usal PA stuff."

I want to know if "Stress Relief Massage" is a normal PA activity?

 

[Cliff]

I think it's a red flag there's so many misspellings in the job ad: "willinvolve", "reliueve", and "usal." It's also not in a professional, sentence format. I'd take these as warning signs, along with the fact he's asking for massages.

 

[Hello K]

No. That is not something I have heard of.

 

[Mary]

No it is not. They are looking for free sex.

 

[Common Sense]

No...sounds fishy.

I want one of those personal assistants.

Maybe their last PA had done a few massage therapy courses or something.

I am not sure, it sounds very strange, and it is not normal for a PA to be asked such things.

Maybe they are just thinking wishfully, or maybe they are looking for some dumb slut who is desperate for a job.

If you have many other opportunities ignore this one, otherwise if it is the only thing around apply for it.

You will quickly pick up the vibes in the interview.

no... that sounds like it's under the wrong category.
