I am still unsure how to title this post

Here is the punchline:

“The Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry at UCLA seeks applications for an Assistant Adjunct Professor on a without salary basis. Applicants must understand there will be no compensation for this position.”

At first I was pondering “These wages are not sticky downwards,” and then “These wages are sticky downwards.”  Or how about “Tax them anyway”?  “Solve for the ZMP equilibrium”?

“One of the few jobs where your payments are inflation linked!“?

What else?  Here is the ad, here are some possible explanations, I am not sure if those make it better or worse.

I thank several loyal MR readers for the pointer.
