Posting the advertisement for help organizing my apartment didn't quite work they way that I thought it would. I went to login after proving that I had a pulse and could navigate the Indiana Jones style challenge of getting a password and username. So I went to the BU site and I went to where I got stuck yesterday. I entered my shiny new password and BUID and then got this message.

"We are sorry, but you are not eligible for this Student Employment service. Please visit the Student Employment Frequently Asked Questions page for eligibility requirements and more information."

This page luckily took me to a page that allowed me to post a job as an employer without having a BUID. This makes sense since there is no reason why I should have a BUID in order to employ a BU student but I hadn't counted on people who require you to encrypt and decrypt your own password in your head to come up with a policy that made it easy to post a job for $10 an hour. The form is
here
in case anyone is looking for it.

I would have cut and pasted the job posting that I put into the form but it is one of those forms that gives you no reciept and gives a funky error message when you hit the back button. My reproduction of the job listing is something like this:

"Looking for someone with strong organizational skills to help reduce the clutter in my apartment. Tasks to include filing financial documents and managing closets, bureaus, drawers, and cabinets.

$10.00/hour
Minimum 4 hours/month
Maximum 8 hours/month
"

But it's posted so now it's just a waiting game to see who responds.
