Golf Companion: Singapore Sling, Toronto Swing.

What does it take to be a full-time golf companion for a jet-setting family? This week, Jen and Paul tee off on a job ad so niche, it makes their previous roasts look like entry-level gigs. Between the 75% travel, the cultural tutoring, and the mystery of who’s footing the bill for rent in Singapore, this role is equal parts dream job and logistical nightmare. Is it a legitimate opportunity or a scam wrapped in a country club membership?

Product Designer: Worshipping at the Altar of Figma

Mission-driven or mission impossible? Jen and Paul dissect a product designer job posting that promises to ‘redefine healthcare’... but leaves out critical details like benefits, reporting structure, and actual responsibilities. The ad hooks you with bold language and a compelling mission, but the fine print reveals a chaotic, high-pressure role with a tiny salary range and a bizarre application process (including a mandatory video pitch). Is this a dream job for a passionate designer, or a hustle culture trap? Listen as we roast the red flags, question the company’s priorities, and ask: If healthcare is so broken, why isn’t this company fixing its own job ads?

Director of Pedagogy: Peda... goo-goo? With Chief Absurdist Officer

This week, Jen and Paul are joined by Chief Absurdist Officer (Kathi Eric Dalguntas) to roast a "Director of Pedagogy, Learning & Instructional Design" job ad that’s equal parts baffling and infuriating. The role demands a unicorn: someone who can develop curriculum, manage projects, support sales, and navigate international cultural sensitivities... all while being paid a salary that’s more laughable than livable. The ad is a Frankenstein of responsibilities, with no clarity on reporting structure, no cultural hooks, and a salary range that’s a slap in the face. Kathi, Jen, and Paul dissect why this role is doomed to fail, why the company’s mission is buried under a mountain of red flags, and what job seekers should really ask if they dare apply.

Roast the Post LIVE: Happy Hour

Jen and Paul are live from a Toronto pub, ripping into the worst of hiring: the radio silence after applying, the salary question trap, and the myth of "cultural fit." They spill the tea on how to handle lowball offers, when to walk away from a toxic workplace, and why your next job’s hiring process might be a red flag in disguise. Plus, hot takes on digital nomad life, the absurdity of unpaid "trial workdays," and why every new hire deserves a paid first week off. This isn’t just a roast, it’s a survival guide for job seekers and a wake-up call for hiring managers. -- Jen and Paul roast weekly at https://roastthepost.show [https://roastthepost.show].
