Liepāja Seeks Letter Detectives with Lockable Mailboxes
Employers are looking for mysterious letter controllers, offering 75 cents for each received letter.
A job posting has appeared in Liepāja that makes even the most experienced residents of Karosta scratch their heads. Some employer is seeking letter controllers whose main duty is to receive and register mysterious letters. They're offering 75 cents cash for each such letter.
The main requirement is a lockable mailbox. There you have it! In Liepāja, where the tram runs whenever it feels like it and the port operates seven days a week, someone is looking for people with secure mailboxes. The job posting promises that processing one letter takes less than a minute. Faster than making coffee in downtown Liepāja!
Local residents are outraged. Iveta Andersone, who noticed the posting, asks: "What kind of letters are these that need to be received regularly?" Liepāja folks are naturally cautious. We've experienced everything — from music festivals to winter storms, but this kind of job offer is something new.
The promised two to six letters per month would bring in income from 1.50 to 4.50 euros. For that kind of money you couldn't even buy one coffee in Riga, but in Liepāja you could buy two potato pastries at the market. Maybe this is a new way to receive love letters from Ventspils? Or perhaps someone wants to send greetings from the sand dunes of Kurzeme beach?
