A Royal Advert

Her Royal Highness Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge seeks a full-time Lady-in-Waiting.

Candidates must possess a well-rounded education, impeccable manners, and the wherewithal to know when their opinion is truly needed. A strong sense of style is preferred, though an applicant's beauty should not exceed that of the Princess.

Must be unmarried. Must be comfortable keeping state secrets. Major duties will include running errands for and with Her Highness, entertaining Her Highness between engagements, consistently maintaining a calm and generally pleasant appearance and attitude, and otherwise assisting the Princess in any way she desires.

Experience with children is an absolute necessity. Because Her Highness must return to her royal duties almost immediately upon giving birth, care of the Royal Family's newest member will frequently fall to the Lady-in-Waiting.

As is only fitting, candidates must be citizens of the United Kingdom (ideally England). Ladies of noble blood preferred, but considering that the Princess herself was once a commoner, this trait is not strictly necessary.

Interested parties will please apply at http://www.dukeandduchessofcambridge.org/

  1. Did you know there's a position at the White House which is technically Obama's assistant but is in reality more like "Hey, chat with the prez and play one on one b-ball with him and just travel around and be his pal"? It was filled for a while by this kid, a fresh college grad.
