Lanarkshire garage posts hilarious 'no wee hard men' job advert and is praised for antics

A hilarious ad posted by a Lanarkshire Garage has gone viral on social media and left many in stitches.

Airdrie Tyres and MOT Services, who are based in Coatbridge, are on the look out for a 'yard boy' to help out around their unit in Heritage Way.

However, business owner, Robert Sweeney, posted a very honest ad to the company's Facebook page, stating that the wage is 'utter p***'

Robert isn't looking to hire ''insta guys or tik tok “influencers”, as he needs a proper worker.

Since being posted online yesterday the ad has garnered 1.1k likes and 1.6k shares, with more than 400 people commenting on it.

The full ad reads: "Now that the summer holidays are here we are looking for a yard boy to help out with tyre management and general chores around the garage.

"It’s Monday to Friday 9-5, for the idiots that’s breakfast till dinner.

"No wee hard men or f****s, also no insta guys or tik tok “influencers”…It’s engine oil here not baby oil…I don’t care who you know or who your da knows, just come, do the job and go up the road, stories are for bedtime.

"Wages are utter p*** so don’t think your eating steak every night. It gets you out from under your maws feet and gives you enough for a vape and a couple of soups down the park so everyone’s happy.

"No message applications, I don’t have time to break into 5000 messages with you to ask for a job and also don’t get your maw to phone or you’ll get laughed at.

"This is a dirty job so no Yeezys or palm angels so you can tell your maw to stay away from DH gate, you’ll get a uniform so no need for that.

"PHONE and I do mean PHONE for more information."

Thousands of Facebook users appreciated the no nonsense approach of Airdrie Tyres and MOT Services.

One commented said: "Best job ad I've seen. No messing about lol"

Another agreed: "Best advert I’ve seen for a job."

Others were throwing their hat in the ring for the 'yard boy' job.

One wrote: "Make it a full time job and I'm in."

Another Facebook user said: "This post is making me want to get the wrenches dusted off and apply."

However, most just found the ad absolutely hilarious.

One comment read: "This has got to be the best job advert ever!! Absolutely howling at this. Class."
