Omigosh! At least on company has a sense of hunor!

Here was the job headline I found:

-> Do you have at least 1 Year of .NET experience?
-> Are you willing to relocate to far east Texas?

So I thought "Okay, maybe it's still close enough for me to commute
to" (from Arlington).

Then I saw this in the job description:

-> WE WILL PROVIDE FULL RELOCATION FOR THE PERFECT
-> CANDIDATE TO OUR EAST TEXAS (Pittsburgh) LOCATION!!!!

If I wasn't so irritated about still being unemployed, this would have
been even funnier (big grin).

Hugs and Purrs,
Mark

Maybe I'm taking this too seriously, don't get the joke, or I'm just
bored. Anyway, I looked it up - and it turns out Pittsburgh, Texas
isn't a joke...

According to RandMcNally.com, it's where US 271 and Route 11 meet in
Camp County in east Texas. That's between Mount Pleasant and Gilmer,
south of I-30 between Dallas and Texarkana. The Zip Code is 75686.

Maybe you *could* commute. If you like long commutes.

As for me, of all of the above the only things I've ever heard of are
I-30, Dallas and Texarkana...

Many years ago I drove through Texarkana.

And I completely understand why you kept going, Adrian! Heck, they don't
even know if it's in Texas or Arkansas! Be afraid, be very afraid :)
