Holy Sh*t. I just got offered a C.O.O. position.

 Just got off the phone. That would mean not posting on DU for awhile. So, I'm torn.
 

Let's see, a JOB or the DUmp ?  Believe it, he said it.

2. Thanks

 I don't know if they pay enough; they said they "can work it out." This is Board of Directorspeak for "take it or leave it"

It's a job man.  TAKE IT !

10. Not that I'm aware of...
 I don't know any, though...
 

Well C-Peg, DUmp posting should not be allowed. All that craziness should be kept private and at home.  That's a good way to lose that job.

It isn't at all surprising. They don't want a DUmmy in direct contact with customers by waiting tables. So they offer him a job working on Carry Out Orders.

Hi all,
I'm new here but have really enjoyed lurking and reading your hilarious posts.  I can't resist in joining in the pile-on-a-dummie action. 

What kind of person even posts something like that? Heck, I wouldn't even email my best friend to say that I'm torn between a COO position and posting on some dumb political message board.  That's just crazy talk.

You lose street cred points for having a job, a brain, or a values system at DU.

This is Cap'n dimwit, the Deaniac who helped create the peopleforchange site where the primtive Dean freaks ran off to in 2003 when he screamed himself into political office obscurity.  From all appearances, Cap'n dimwits's father had money from being an evil capitalist and now Jr. has it to limp around and feel important.  If he's being offered a COO job, it's for the same purpose like in the beginning of the movie "Fun with Dick and Jane" where he's left to explain why the company went under.

I'm with GOBUCKS on this one.  Can't post?  More likely because it involves counting change for the customers out of the register and they don't have free Wi-Fi.

And if someone offered me a six-figure-plus job with the caveat I couldn't post here, well, been good knowing ya, ****ers!

Dear DUmmie,
FGL Industries has a vacant position, the Chief Operating Officer, since the last person to hold the job has retired on Rikers Island, NY.

We believe that your experience and education makes you uniquely qualified to hold the bag, I mean reins, of this fast growing company.

Your fellow DUmmies are being offered the positions of President, CEO and Chairman of the Board. Salary will be based on how many people we can recruit and how many people those recruits recruit. Our products range from bumper stickers and personalized pencils to high-tech and innovative online screen savers, games, worms, malware and Spam marketing. We even have a close working relationship with ACORN and white slavers based in Dubai.

This is the opportunity of a lifetime. The potential earnings are massive and tax free.

He/she/it had to choose between sitting on their ass in their basement typing on a keyboard and drawing a government check, or actually work for their paycheck doing something somewhat productive to society....

Yeah, that one is a no-brainer.  Perfect for a DUmmie....   :hammer:

Not hard to find. Just buzz on over to Humboldt County in the great State of Kalifornica. You can just walk into the post office and find opportunities! From what I've heard, even the cops have a "patch".
