Following Che's post below
During the time I worked in a JobCentre, and back in the days where jobs were placed on bits of card and then stuck up on the display boards, we had had a confectionary company place a vacancy with us:
Wanted: Fudge Packers. Experience preferred, but full training will be given.
Nobody spotted this for days...

Around the corner from me
the grocery store was looking for someone to work in the meat department. Someone apparently fired up some sort of sign-making template in MS Word, then just entered the verbiage. The result was that there were two lines of very large bold text, followed by some lines of smaller text. It looked something like:
WANTED
EXPERIENCED MEAT
CUTTER. APPLY WITHIN.
I really, REALLY wanted to go in, find a female manager and thrust my chest out and declare, "I'm experienced meat. Where do ya want me, toots?"
Probably just as well that I didn't...

In the same town
There was a massive furore when the local council wanted to change the same of a street from something perfectly innocuous, if a little dull, to 'Uphill Gardens'.
Never did find out if the council relented on that one at all...
