Seen on Craigslist today… Free red hat and don’t forget to wear your gold 😂

T-Mellon Events is looking for seat fillers and extras to provide their time for space maximization and attendance perception for an event taking place in Washington DC on June 14th. Extras and Seat fillers will check in on the morning of June 14th at 9:00 a.m.

Extras are required to wear Red, White and Blue clothing and will be provided a RED hat to wear. GOLD accessories are acceptable as well. The team will advise the extras where to stand or sit according to the line of sight from a VIP viewing platform area.

Extras and Seat fillers will be paid a flat daily fee and will be provided a lunch of fast food and soda.

We encourage people of color and ethnic groups to sign up for maximum perception control and these individuals will be prominently displayed on the televised broadcast and local viewing screens to be seen by the VIP platform.

They are offering payment in cryptocurrency. Seems legit right?

Update: I’ve been working all day and was shocked to see this on the rec list! My first time. Looking forward to reading all the comments when I’m done for the day 🤘

Update #2: While I’m up here on the rec list I thought I’d also share the Trumperor image I made back in 2016 that feels even more relevant today. Feel free to use it anywhere you like, here’s a link! 👊

Final Update: Thanks for all the recs everyone, it’s pretty rad to see all the comments and discussion.



⭐️ I’m adding the Snopes link for this right here. It’s undecided but leans snark. Either way, it makes us laugh at the 🍊🤡 and that’s a win.
