Ebay Auction Item: 5630325919
Hire PETA President (Ingrid Newkirk) as Your Personal Assistant for a Day
Here?s a unique chance to hire hands-on corporate administrator and founder
Ingrid Newkirk, president of People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals
(PETA), as your personal assistant for a day.
Use her experience in animal matters and corporate know-how to good advantage,
perhaps by having her accompany you on your annual hunting expedition or to the
rodeo or a bullfight.
What about having her redesign your animal testing lab or your bear bile farm,
check your trapline, sharpen the lamb mulesing shears on your Outback farm or
unload your poor old sheep from the docks in Dubai, build supports to stop your
cattle from slipping off the truck ramps at the leather market, or count how
many times the workers at your slaughterhouse miss with the captive-bolt gun?
You can have her clean rodent cages or racehorse stalls, serve customers at
your dog-soup restaurant, or just have her listen for hours to your hunting
club members expound on their manhood.
Of course, as one of the world?s most prominent animal rights leaders, Newkirk
would gladly also help you veganize your corporate cafeteria or cook your
family?s dinner, bring your wardrobe into the 21st century by going with you on
a compassionate shopping spree, or cap your chimney to keep wildlife out of
your fireplace this winter. She could help you select cruelty-free holiday
gifts, train you to be nicer to your Rottweilers or teach you how to talk to
your cats, restock your bathroom cabinet with cruelty-free toiletries and
cleaning products, or swap out your sticky glue traps for Havahart® humane box
traps.
Or perhaps you have other ideas.
Newkirk is available to give you honest critiques or humane advice or just do
what you?d like her to do as long as it?s legal and, if animal suffering or
death is involved, you did not cause it or add to it in any way specifically
for this occasion.
***
People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA), with more than 850,000
members and supporters, is the largest animal rights organization in the world.
Founded in 1980, PETA is dedicated to establishing and protecting the rights of
all animals. PETA operates under the simple principle that animals are not ours
to eat, wear, experiment on, or use for entertainment.
PETA focuses its attention on the four areas in which the largest numbers of
animals suffer the most intensely for the longest periods of time: in factory
farms, laboratories, the clothing trade, and the entertainment industry. PETA
also works on a variety of other issues, including the cruel killing of
beavers, birds, and other so-called ?pests? and the abuse of backyard dogs.
PETA works through public education, cruelty investigations, research, animal
rescue, legislation, special events, celebrity involvement, and protest
campaigns. For more information, see PETA.org.

Notes:
Ingrid Newkirk will only engage in legal activities (for example, only
Louisiana and New Mexico still allow cockfighting) and will only serve as a
personal assistant for activities that are a normal part of the lifestyle of
the winner, not for any activities in which pain and suffering are inflicted
specifically for this offer.
Ingrid Newkirk reserves the right to refuse any bid.
Accommodations and round-trip air travel between Norfolk, Virginia, and the job
site are the responsibility of the winner and are not included in the purchase
price.
Ingrid Newkirk may choose to be accompanied by a videographer or member of the
media.
