The Miracle of the Corporate Economy

When is a job offer not actually a job offer? Might as well ask, would you like regular or premium with your yummy Gulf of Mexico shrimp? Well, OK, maybe that isn’t much of a comparison, or analogy, or whatever; in any case, lacking any Clown Train (to be defined and explained at a later date) offenses to decency and good taste to illuminate at present, I offer this little e-mailed snippet of corporate vomit to all my fellow unemployed compatriots. This is 100% real -- the message, if not the purported “job” it supposedly relates to:
