      There's one born every minute. How many applicants have they had already?

      If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack. --Winston Churchill

        Cool, they must be developing another javascript framework that'll be all the rage for 4 months before the next one comes along.

        Excellent! I hope that like all freelance projects they want all the code to be on their servers at all times and they'll pay me when the whole project is finished and they have all the code up and running.

                      I actually interviewed for this job. Things went really well right up to the end where I was told that I would have to wear a tie on office days. I walked out and didn't look back.

                            Sounds like too much work to me. You have to be there when needed. Terribly intrusive. I mean, sure, I have to be here every day, but it's rare that I'm needed. Being needed is far more hype than its worth. :laugh:

                                  When I was a teenager, websites didn't exist... neither did the internet! My first computer was a mainframe!

                                  Stop your limited thinking. How're you going to get ahead like that? I personally worked on the Internet __before__ it was created. We used typewriters and shuffled the papers amongst ourselves.
