While I wait to hear from Blue Sky Cleaners, I'm still poking around. Found a couple of possibilities.

Satellite Installers Wanted

This is an open house. Luckily, we just did some nice copies of my resume.

Material Handler Req# 18-05

This ad is an entire night of buzzword bingo. Take this ALL CAPS bit for example:

DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES INCLUDE THE PRINCIPAL FUNCTIONS OF THE JOB. THE JOB DESCRIPTION SHALL NOT BE CONSTRUED AS A COMPLETE LISTING OF ALL MISCELLANEOUS, INCIDENTAL OR OTHER DUTIES WHICH MAY BE ASSIGNED DURING NORMAL OPERATIONS.

Wouldn't "other duties as required" have done the job just as well?

Mox Nix, since I don't meet the requirements. But do read that ad for the amusement value alone. Dude, it's craigslist! Lighten up a little! Even the ads for lawyers and doctors (yes, we get them) are less formal than that.

And the award for "Ad That Broke the Spell Checker" goes to...

Do the job? I can't even pronounce half of it!

Ideas are bulletproof. Memes are ideas.

Therefore, if you come under fire, hide behind this post. Ganked from kevin_standlee

Is anyone surprised by this?

In other news, I'm waiting for a phone screen for the driving job I posted about a few days ago.

I swear, they're sacrificing these guys to Baal or something...

Taking a run through craigslist.org for new job postings (something I do several times a day) and I see that they're back.

GOSPEL PIANIST NEEDED FOR BLACK-LED SAN JOSE CHURCH

I know I've posted about this before, but this ad appears at least once a week, and has been appearing for as long as craigslist has existed. I find it amusing to imagine why they are endlessly searching. Personally, I'm picturing the stereotypical Church Ladies from Hell, the real powers in the congregation, who find endless fault with each new candidate. They've left a string of broken pianists in their wake.

On the other hand, maybe the listing is a secret message. Minor variations in wording and punctuation send different messages.

Or they could be worshiping some strange deity that requires the blood of piano players who know black church music.

A meme living out there in the real world.

One that I heartily agree with.

Many of you know that I think that paparazzi are vermin, and that my opinion on the whole cult of celebrity lays somewhere below contempt. So you can imagine my opinion of Gawker.com. Never mind that the site owners are just plain assholes, I believe that everyone, even celebrities, have the right to go about their daily business in relative privacy. Who freaking cares about where Billie Joe Armstrong had lunch? Or what handbag the star slut of the week bought at the trendy boutique of the week.

George Clooney has a solution. Once drawn from the pages of The Art of War.

George Clooney is known as a prankster, but his plan to undermine a Web site that posts celebrity sightings is no joke, his publicist said Friday.

Clooney has suggested swamping Gawker.com's "Gawker Stalker" feature with false notes about stars' whereabouts, spokesman Stan Rosenfield said.

In an e-mail Rosenfield recently distributed on Clooney's behalf to other high-powered publicists, the actor calls for publicity firms and their clients to join the effort against the site that some have called a threat to celebrities.

"There is a simple way to render these guys useless," Clooney said in the message. "Flood their Web site with bogus sightings. Get your clients to get 10 friends to text in fake sightings of any number of stars.

"A couple hundred conflicting sightings and this Web site is worthless. No need to try to create new laws to restrict free speech. Just make them useless. That's the fun of it. And then sit back and enjoy the ride," Clooney writes, signing the note, "Thanks, George."

Have fun. Get creative. Fight the system!
