Monkey Business
This one is more odd than bad. But it's kinda bad. I mean, you're either a web person or a money care taker, right?
Any job that requires you to be "not afraid of the dark", is worth our time...

I am looking for an EXCELLENT, highly skilled PHP/HTML programmer to help with the customization of an amazing community lifestyle portal I originally created in 2000. It is NOT cheesy or generic, it is very ORGANIC and has UNLIMITED POTENTIAL, more than I can convey through a measly ad. I'm not just being dreamy here. Being involved in this site would not only be amazing for your resume, but could potentially make your career. Currently the site has 60,000 registered members, underground notoriety, and the potential to be a household name. It's not ready for the masses, but that's why I need YOU. I'm not a suit or a corporation and I'm NOT looking to fill a position, I'm looking for a person who sees my vision and wants to invest in it. If you are still reading and you have the skills – and I emphasize you must have a solid understanding of PHP and HTML (MYSQL and/or design skills are a major plus) Please contact me to discuss further.

My next career move
Here's some info that'll stick in your craw from our new buddy Joey. Check out his site for a nice graph illustrating the inequity.
The average American working person gets 10 days off a year. The average European gets 26 days off and the average German worker gets 30 days off. President Bush took the entire month of August off for vacation. Our elected congressional officials get 5 weeks of vacation and they "recess" for the enitre winter! Here's a look at how your work year compares to theirs.
Is this fair? Shouldn't the lawmakers of this country work just as hard as the rest of us? If they give themselves 5 weeks of vacation and the entire winter off then shouldn't every working American get the same?

Funny how one little bit of paper left in the ATM machine by the guy in line in front of you can make you feel like quite the underachiever. If this is his fucking checking account, imagine the rest of the bastard's finances. I swear he left it there on purpose for the next plebian loser to weep over.

Unhappy Workers Should Take Prozac --Bush Campaigner
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - A campaign worker for President Bush (news - web sites) said on Thursday American workers unhappy with low-quality jobs should find new ones -- or pop a Prozac to make themselves feel better.
"Why don't they get new jobs if they're unhappy -- or go on Prozac?" said Susan Sheybani, an assistant to Bush campaign spokesman Terry Holt.
The comment was apparently directed to a colleague who was transferring a phone call from a reporter asking about job quality, and who overheard the remark.
When told the Prozac comment had been overheard, Sheybani said: "Oh, I was just kidding."
While recent employment growth has buoyed Bush's economic record, Democratic presidential candidate John Kerry (news - web sites) has argued the new jobs are not as good as those lost due to outsourcing in recent years.
Nearly 1.1 million jobs have been lost since Bush took office in January 2001.

Update
Hey all,
Sorry for the absence - did it make your hearts grow fonder? We are gearing up to move across the country in search of greener pastures, and as a result haven't had a lot of time for the site. The forums are getting busier, and lots of you are posting your own horror jobs there, so we're going to make that the meat and spuds of the site. Excpect to see that changeover in a day or two.
I have to say, also, that the submissions are getting scarcer, while the traffic is holding, which would seem to indicate a bit of change for the bettter in the market. Let's hope so!
Onward!

That's great, if you're career goal is to be an office grunt.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I always thought the point of an internship was to allow the intern to get real world, on-the-job experience in their areas of study. These upstanding folks want an intern to answer phones, run errands, clean the office and "fulfill requests made by Gizmo clients or employees". That's not exactly going to improve your After Effects chops, now is it? Oh, wait, my bad. I looks like in exchange for all this menial grunt-work they are going to let you "observe between assisting with heavy office duties"
Fuck that.
