Default Good job for VNNer

Alex Linder would be perfect for this. C'mon, Alex, apply for it - this would be hilarious.

You know they probably wouldn't vet you (being too stupid to do it competently). Imagine the exposure when your hiring is announced!

Quote:
The District of Columbia's often-controversial and always-colorful "mayor-for-life" Marion Barry is hiring.

For $46,350 to $75,000 per year one brave soul can serve as the communications director for Barry, now a D.C. councilman.

Since Barry has been spokesman-free for months, his chief of staff Joyce Clements-Smith has had the tricky task of smoothing over Barry's recent comment that the "dirty shops" run by Asians in his ward "ought to go" and his lamentation that the area's clinics were hiring too many Filipino nurses.

Qualified candidates to be Barry's spokesperson must have at least a bachelor's degree and live in or move to D.C. Whomever is up to the task "designs and develops a communication plan," "writes, manages or directs a staff in the writing and dissemination of press releases," manages Barry's website and responds to constituent and media inquiries.

Even the Mayor for Life has a sense of humor about his unquestionably challenging job post. Shortly after the position was posted on April 30, Barry tweeted "Seriously…looking for a bright energetic hard worker. Won't be boring."

Alex may not be gonzo enough to do this. Craig could try.

Shit, I can do that no problem. I will do it in a Calypso Louie voice for a mere 5k a year more.

Contrary to the words of the late and lamented Ms Houston, crack, in fact, is not wack.
