Ahhh, Phenomenex: This must say something good about the economy, right? Phenomenex has the first "multiple positions" post that I've seen in forever. That said, it's the same four or five slots (especially that 'organic surface chemist' position) that they've been flogging for the past 3 years or so.
[I also remember the Millenium "multiple positions" posts back in the depths of the Great Recession, when milkshake would remind me again and again that there was no evidence that Millenium was actually hiring the people that it was advertising for.]

Dammit... I think I just posses average intellectual ability. I just procrastinate a lot lately and play video games at home instead of working on my papers that I need to publish. I'm an impostor! I don't deserve that superior intellectual ability job. :(
ReplyDeleteStill, I know one guy who knows 100% he has superior intellectual ability. Bit of a jerk though. And somewhat of a narcissist, but hey, what do I know? I don't think I should be evaluating people with my average intellect.

ReplyDeleteJob postings pass my way
Looking at their needs
I see an anomaly,
And then I realize,
How angry you make me, Oh Kelly

Well you ticked me and with rage I'm now shaking,
And I wish you away, Oh Kelly.
