"It’s really a dream come true. You to can work for a boss who is easy to please! (Just bring tuna.)"
Yeah, I'm still horribly behind on stuff. I ended up skipping out on an eLearning event yesterday that I wanted to go to because I was feeling under the weather, literally and figuratively. Things should slow down a bit after this week. I hope.
Today I want to talk briefly about dream jobs, or dream companies. I Can Has Cheezburger, my favorite time sink site on the internet, has several job openings. While most require you to be in Seattle, at least one current opening is for someone who telecommutes.
Wouldn't it be cool to work for a company that is about funny pictures? If I was a Sys Admin, I'd jump at the chance to work there, versus, say, a place I used to work at where a sense of humor was frowned upon, no eating at the desk, kooshballs became contraband, and you could only dress down on Fridays. If no clients were in the building.
They're also looking for a PHP/LAMP superstare. And an Ad Manager. An Ad Manager with "The smarts" and "Off the hook Google-fu and Internet-fu". Seriously. Being silly in advertising for jobs is normally a big warning sign, but considering the product (an offshoot is it's own dialect, of LOLspeak), it makes sense. And the fact their looking for someone with a brain, and not focusing solely on a resume. So Seattle based people should be checking these out.
Have you ever tried to find a company that matched your personality, and your skillset? Give it a try. If you're going to earn a paycheck, you might as well have fun doing it.
