What is the craziest demand on job offer you had?


I responded to a job offer a while back that was posted on this bar, and when they sent me their contract(s) it stated (and I'm not making this up) that I would owe them at least $500.00 a WEEK in "handling fees" for the privilege of working for them as long as I owed them money. I would of owed them a retainer as soon as I signed the contract and would of had to pay them the $500.00 plus had the retainer deducted from my check until it was paid for in full. Plus they demanded I sign over all of my tools and equipment (vehicles) that I owned (not just the ones I would be using on that job) to them while I worked for them! Of course I replied "no thanks". Now this was just for a subcontracting position (just me) with them. I asked if they were a part of the mafia. Never heard back from them. I'm not making this up. It was just a few months back! Have any of you had any crazy demands like that imposed on you, in order to work for someone? Lets hear about it. (shocked)
