What in the heck? Job posting for "Scientist Friday"

From ACS Careers
What in the heck? I get the reference -- this is just a funny way of going about it. It's this company, apparently.

    Reminds me a joke about a job interview for a live-in domestic servant. A 30 minute-long description of various duties expected from the job applicant finally ends with: "Do you have any questions?" The job applicant says: "Yes, sir. I wanted to ask you if you also have a brick-making workshop on the premises. In my spare time I would like to go and make some bricks for you."

    In case people out there still believe that the ACS isn't a joke of a professional organization.

    @Anon: Possibly drive the chairman to and from his three plants in Henderson, KY...worth $0.50, I'd say!

    Public companies justly get criticized for bowing to investors' short-sighted demands. On the other hand, private companies like Shamrock can be run by nutters and nobody can say a thing.

    I'm not sure which I'd prefer to work for.

    The extra 50 cents is worth a shot, so long as the job candidate doesn't have to sacrifice her/his morals or ethics.

    "C'mon, ya wanna be in pictures, don't ya? Show me what ya got!"

looks like Blogger doesn't work with anonymous comments from Chrome browsers at the moment - works in Microsoft Edge, or from Chrome with a Blogger account - sorry! CJ 3/21/20
