I heard they paid their last assistant less than 45k....They should be paying at least six figures for a 24/7 hour job, especially with the security concerns and all those babies, baby mommas, momma janice, girlfriends, boyfriends, etc...

Type A personality, also known as the Type A Behavior Pattern, is a set of characteristics that includes being impatient, excessively time-conscious, insecure about one's status, highly competitive, hostile and aggressive, and incapable of relaxation.[1] Type A individuals are often highly achieving workaholics who multi-task, drive themselves with deadlines, and are unhappy about the smallest of delays. They have been described as stress junkies.

Type A Health implications

Type A behavior was first described as a potential risk factor in coronary disease in the 1950s by cardiologists Meyer Friedman and R. H. Rosenham. After a nine-year study of over 3,000 healthy men, aged 35-59, Friedman & Rosenham estimated that Type A behavior doubles the risk of coronary heart disease in otherwise healthy individuals. This research had an enormous effect in stimulating the development of the field of health psychology, in which psychologists look at how a person's mental state affects his or her physical health.

Suggestion...they should make a reality TV show on this....have several candidates competing for the position I am sure MTV will go for it..."Making the Assistant"!!!

First of all, if he's really looking for somebody to really give up their life and shadow him; they should be properly compensated with a six figure salary. How dare they list all these qualifications, needs, and wants without paying under $40,000...Maybe if the employee was compensated properly, treated fairly, and allowed time as a human to rest, then there would be a sense of high urgency...He's basically asking for someone to slave for him in a personal manner..If your ready for a two-faced staff and unprofessional team....Good Luck!!

If they do a reality show, they should have Bentley Farnsworth and his current assistants coach the candidates, have guest appearances from persons who are personal assistants to Beyonce, Jay Z, J. Lo, Hip Hop Mogul Kevin Liles, Russel Simmons, Kimora Lee Simmons,and for a kicker, use past Diddy assistants to create drama.

This is going to be the highest rated TV show in MTV History!!
