Hey Andy, Need a Job?

Apparently a Chinese multimillionare/philanthropist* has decided to turn his business acumen toward helping the little people...literally.

He's opening a theme park which will be staffed entirely by dwarves**. Already various human rights groups are up in arms about it, but at the same time he's being flooded with job applications from non-tall persons, who don't have much in the way of employment opportunities in China.

I, for one, will never tell a small person that he can't dance "Swan Lake" if he wants to.

h/t to the other, bigger John Eric for the heads up on this one.


*OK, that part's open to debate
**or midgets, or people of short stature, or vertically-challenged individuals. Pick your nom de petit.
