our competitors.

"Casual Work Atmosphere" - We don't pay enough to expect that
you will dress up.
"Must be Deadline Oriented" - You will be six months behind
schedule on your first day.
"Some Overtime Required" - Some time each night, some time
each weekend.
"Duties will Vary" - Anyone in the office can boss you around.
"Must have an Eye for Detail" - We have no quality control.
"Seeking Candidates with a Wide Variety of Experience" - You will
need to replace three people who just left.
"Problem Solving Skills a Must" - You are walking into a company
