[OT][BW] Ridiculous required programmer skills
Mark Edwards wrote:
It is getting harder and harder to meet some of the "required skillsets" for a programming job these days... I found this posting in the middle of the "Computer IT Professionals" category in the help wanted ads. I've highlighted the job category at the tops of the columns, for context, and highlighted and circled the ad (near the bottom, right hand side of the page): http://tinyurl.com/yaffo7 or the full URL at: http://professional-geek.com/persona...elpwanted2.jpg I can see this being a USEFUL skill for a programmer, but still... Hugs and Purrs, Mark Sushi Loco? Would you eat at a place with a name like 'crazy sushi'?? Or would you have to be crazy to work there? Hmm...you might want to study sushi-making, Mark. Better chance to get a job. Jane |

(Probably not. It's probably just what you're thinking - this is Texas, after all. ) In my neck of the woods, there's a restaurant called We Be Sushi. Joyce |

Joyce We have two businesses in the local strip that I think have perfectly terrible names. The first is a Mexican type restaurant called the "Iguana Grill". Lizard for lunch? No thanks. The other is called "Funky Tan". Now I will admit I think tanning salons are silly. Especially in a climate that will turn your skin to shoe leather if you aren't careful. And I know the work funky can be used in a great many different ways. Still, not comfortable with funky to describe either a good tan or a good place to get one. Jo |

Jo We pass a sign to one when driving to DH's family's home that always makes me giggle - Montezuma's Mexican restaurant. I realise that Montezuma is an important and honourable historical figure, but I can't help but think that any restaurant that brings to mind "Montezuma's revenge" is asking for trouble. Tish |
