Satellite Installers Wanted

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

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...

Aqui Cal-Mex Sous Chef

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

With the ladder option, you might not need a strong throwing arm, if the ladder's tall enough. Just topple the ladder, and let leverage do the rest.... ;-)
