If you Hire A Hipster, we promise not to talk to you about music. We will only listen to you talk about the kind of music you like. And we will not sigh or roll our eyes. What the hell, you can even play your music while we work. Even if it's MGMT. Or U2. If you Hire A Hipster, we promise not to smoke or drink on the job, unless you're buying the beer. Just kidding. But really, we will not act like the minor heathens we appear to be. If you Hire A Hipster, we promise not to steal your sh*t. While you might think that's a given, we DO live in Portland and the staff at Hire A Hipster just wants you to get that in writing. However, if you have any black velvet paintings or ceramic cat yard statues, you may be pestered with repeat requests for barter. If you Hire A Hipster, we promise not to be slow, lazy assholes. Really, we are capable of that! But just in case, most of our jobs are not charged by the hour, and we will work with a controlled fury to finish your job in a timely manner. If you Hire A Hipster, we promise to clean up after ourselves. We strive to reuse, recycle or compost as much waste as we possibly can. We are working toward having less negative impact on our environment and in our communities. Are you a hipster looking for a job? Apply to join our team! You must be over 18, legally able to work in the US, and have valid ID. If you have a car or a bike with a trailer, that's double plus good. Send us an email outlining your strengths, your availability, a 200 word essay on why hipsters need feminism, and your top 5 favorite vintage bootleg recordings.
