pLt and I are feeling very frustrated and disappointed that we are only able to devote 3-4 hours a day each to reading the multitude of posts on the SDMB, due to the fact that we are both constrained by full-time jobs. We feel we could really do a much better job of keeping up to date on all the important and not-so-important details posted here if the SDMB would hire us full time.
pLt offers his services as an editor and columnist, and I can proofread like nobody’s business. Between the two of us, we can actually reduce the number of posts by one-third, as there will be no more posts about incorrect grammar, spelling, or bad links.
We are willing to do the job for very little money … we figure $65,000 US per year should do (that’s for the two of us, we work better as a team). To make up for such a bargain salary, we have several fringe benefits in mind… for example, we should each get 3 cinnamon oil massages every week, by the Doper of our choice, “Cecil loves me” personalized T-shirts, and badges that proclaim us to be smarter (well, okay, less ignorant) than the general populace.
Please contact either of us at your earliest convenience, as we are eager to begin putting our considerable skills at work for YOU.
Silly kids. Just do what I did. Rearrange your entire office, using the excuse that you’ve recently begun practicing Feng Shui, and that the chi in your office is all wrong. Then arrange your desk to face the door, with your monitor angled such that no one can see it unless they are standing in back of it. Your coworkers will think you spiritual, and you get to fill your work hours with glorious web surfing.
I work, kinda, I read and I post…productivity is slightly down, still getting stuff done. Will probably change in a couple of weeks when I switch jobs…
so in essence I’m getting paid to post…
I really hope to care about my work again, and spend less time on-line…you see at one point I really did care about my profession…
And then we as the ‘less ignorant’ editorial team would try to negotiate a higher package from the Ministry of Truth in order to have you “work” along side us.

Colour. I have spelled it this way since third grade. Please tell me who said and this is a total para-phrase. “Sepperated by a comman language” spelling is all mine. shame.MTS
