Need Not Apply...

Sometimes I'm REALLY surprised by the tone people use when writing job descriptions! Here is a little gem from a job listing for a flower farm in MD:

Martha Stewart wannabes need not apply - this is work.
Period. This is work. I think Martha would be insulted by this. She may be many things, but I don't think anyone can accuse her of not being a hard worker! Have you seen her farms?
It should just say - "Back breaking labor! Don't bother if you care about flowers at all or plan to get any further satisfaction from this job besides a hard day's work in the hot sun!"
Sign me up?
