A pub boss has posted a shocking job advert telling people with BO, bad teeth or gamers that they need not apply.
Landlord Craig Harker, 35, has hit headlines in the past due to his unusual advertising methods, which included one that asked: 'Would You Punch Your Ex In The Face For A Steak?' and a Valentine’s Day sign in which he told ‘fat birds’ to keep their chin up as it was ‘Pancake Day soon’.
Seemingly keen to p**s even more people off, Harker advertised online for chefs, kitchen porters and front-of-house staff at his chain of George Pub & Grill venues across Teesside.

But said that due to being ‘inundated’ with sloppy applications and unsuitable candidates, he decided to include a strict set of criteria. The job ad for the positions in Middlesbrough, Stockton and Redcar added: "Those that attend with that fruity B.O odour – it's a no go.
"Oway give your pits a wash before you come down for an interview, a quick whiff and spray those bad boys.
"First impressions count. That includes brushing those tusks too.
"The key part for any interview is first impressions, don't have mine as this person clearly needs a wash and have me turning my head because of that naughty breath that stings my cheeks [sic]."

He also told applicants not to rock up to an interview ‘after a session or a big night and stinking of that last can of lager you had at 5am’, which is fair enough, actually.
The ad goes on to say people with bad teeth aren’t welcome to apply, writing: "If those nashers are black then stay back, white and you're alright [sic].
"Especially when front of house greeting our customers as they walk through the doors."
It goes on: "We want lively, bubbly and friendly people for front of house, not people sat at home all day sitting on the latest FIFA and not leaving the house for days on end.
"Go and get some fresh air and interact with real people!

"I don't care you've led a team on Call of Duty or Dungeons and Dragons, what real work experience do you have? If not then we have positions we can train too!"
He assured would-be staff they'll ‘love the banter’ and said he's happy to employ vegans – as long as they don't mind serving ‘big juicy slabs of meat’. Good luck, applicants!
