Exciting opening for a Gal/Man Friday - Latin fluency required, of course

Somebody in Harvard Square (of course) is looking for an amanuensis:

Eccentric Harvard Square CEO of private equity/foundation seeks Tiro who has brains to burn and an ability to juggle projects around the globe. Oresteia a plus. Of course, you have outstanding communication skills (written oral)... and decline to understand number, case, and gender. ABD even better. Much flexibility for the right person (f/t, flex for family etc).

Send cv and salary requirements, in confidence...

p.s. If you know Faulty Towers, more Basil than Manuel (may he RIP).

And you really don't want Basil Fawlty as your employee. It's Polly who holds the place together.

I took 10 years of Latin & related history and still needed a decipher to get through that.
Eccentric is an understatement... especially given how it would at all relate to private equity.

Having to do with Latin declensions?

At least in the case of this colloquialism, both gendered versions most typically use the informal.
