For $13 an hour.

If you think your job is bad, spare a thought for the poor sod who ended up working here.

Actress Hollis Jane Andrews shared a job description for a nanny job she applied for back in 2013... and yikes.

The two page document listed all the requirements for a "Magical Nanny/Housekeeper", and quite frankly, one would need superpowered patience to even make it through reading the list of demands.

In 2013, I interviewed with an (unbeknownst to me at the time) Scientologist family to be their nanny," Andrews wrote. "They gave this absolutely BONKERS list of responsibilities and now I give it to all of you."

The tweet quickly went viral, as Twitter got to work picking out their favorite from the oh-so-many red flags.

"The main focus is to ensure their basic rudiments* are kept in, so that they are not crying/upsetting the rest of the house," the employer instructed (explaining in the footnotes that "rudiments" meant "sleep, food and watered").

"If I am training I don't want to hear crying or tantrums or headbutting," they warned. "If they hurt themselves, keep quiet, apply Dianetics & assist tech always."

"There is to be NO movies, whilst under your care, please turn you phone OFF whilst at work."

What followed was a strictly regimented timetable of the children's day, which included taking them for a two hour run at 9 AM. "Get them to run, throw rocks and RUN with them, don't stop them running ever."

"If they are crying and yelling, they are not happy and as a nanny you need to get them back happy again," the assignment warned.
