Get Paid for Gaming
... if you're a girl, that is. UbiSoft is looking for female gamers. Check out the Craigslist posting. Basically you'll be a gamer ambassador - playing videogames and going to represent the company at trade shows. Booth babe? But at least you're a real gamer, right? As Kat put it, "I 'figure if they want to pay me money to play games from home, then so be it." Word. Sounds like a dream job for someone! Check it out.

Boy, Ubi has been growing in stature with me, but...pardon my French...this f$%#ing rules. I am heavily in favor of more women playing more games so that we get fewer Barbie Fashion Designer products. Rep-RA-ZENT, ladies. We're expecting big things from you in the next century. Posted by: Flynn on June 2, 2004 06:17 AMI am so there! getting paid to be a girl who games? maybe i can finally pay off my grad school loans...

Posted by: raina on June 3, 2004 10:14 AMI don't think the ad says anything about Trade Shows. They just mention online gaming and playing at competitions. Still a little booth babish I guess, but unless the ad is misleading, most of the work is done from your home where no one can even see you. Posted by: kat on June 3, 2004 10:58 AMit does say "make public appearances" but you're right, that doesn't necessarily mean trade shows... Posted by: jane on June 3, 2004 11:08 AMI would think it's confined to the home/online spheres, as I doubt very much they'd hire anybody in a "booth babe" capacity without checking their appearance first. Posted by: BrainFromArous on June 3, 2004 11:11 AMyeah, the "public appearances" is vague. Posted by: kat on June 3, 2004 02:55 PMthey *will* be checking appearances, at least informally, in the interview process. so who knows. Posted by: jane on June 4, 2004 01:31 PMMan there is such a huge lack of female gamers that we someone needs to pay for them to come out of the wood work. Posted by: JC on June 4, 2004 06:24 PMLACK of female gamers (see above)? Am I in a bizarro world comment section? That statement might have been accurate, maybe, I dunno...fifteen years ago. Posted by: drew on June 5, 2004 09:15 AMI agree with Drew, the aforementioned comment is as well-thought out as saying "Man, there's such a huge lack of male postmen we have to pay them to deliver packages!"
