So on my Facebook feed last night, a local bar was advertising for, "staff wonted".
"Not very professional", I thought .... maybe it was a typo error ..... anyway the word, "wonted" was repeated later on, so it def wasn't a typo.
Anyway someone asked, "how do I apply?"
The reply, "you need to private massage me" .... to which someone replied, "well that's definitely different".
I don't think they realised what they'd done, as they also replied with the same answer, when someone else asked the same question later on.
Sorry .... but it just made me chuckle :)

EEK !! job application by massage ?
I adore inadvertently grammatical errors, especially like the ones in your example when a professional (?) company comes across as, well, not, lol.
Must have a pressing need for new staff.
I hope this story comes with a happy ending though.
wouldn't want to rub up the new boss the wrong way !!
"I hope this story comes with a happy ending though. "

Not sure if this joke was intentional (too early in the morning yet) but THAT made me chuckle.
What joke? (he smiled, innocently :P )
Obviously wonted to find someone willing to give them a massage.
Hope they don't make a habit of it.
naughty step for Jim!!
That's going to have me grinning all day!!
With the added bonus of Minty wonting to put Jim on the naughty step :-)
-legs it-

lol..^^
Could have been written by a poor speller or a foreigner who's first language isn't English.

Either way (as a poor speller myself) get someone to proof read anything official.
was about to say similar Cassa, if written by someone whose first language isn't English.

The are some howlers for job vacancies on the UK gov's website.

Ooh .... close call between Jim and Minty for BA.
Seeing how Jim came first (see what I did there??) .... you get it :)
Wonted is a proper word meaning habitual so no spell checker would highlight it.
