What A Weird Question

Job Posting Rule #47: if you’re going to ask a question in the subject line of your job post, it’s best to be fairly certain that the most likely answer isn’t a confused: “Huh? Umm… no.”

Huh? Umm… no.

Job Posting Rule #62: If you’ve already broken rule #47, don’t begin the ad by breaking it again.

Huh? Umm… No.

Look: I do NOT want to sell pizza bags, and it does NOT sound like fun. AT ALL. I mean, saying the phrase itself is fun: Pizza Bags. Pizza Bags. Pizza Bags! THAT is fun. And oddly gross… kinda evokes an image of giant, soggy sacks filled with dozens of greasy lukewarm pizzas… pizza bags!

But your bold proclamation that selling pizza bags is “fun” is, at best, borne of a deeply misguided enthusiasm. At worst, it’s a bold-faced lie. How many more lies await?

As discussed, it does not sound like fun. Now, hard work? Sure. Those bags ain’t gonna sell themselves! Would that they could! But rewarding? Come on. Let’s be reasonable.
