Friendly and helpful.

I did mention this to someone at Jan and Jon’s this weekend. Anyway, aren’t job ads stupid?

Quote (from job ad): ” The person must be able to fit into the existing team and so must have a friendly/helpful personality.”

Candidate: **** off!

I mean, what do they think people are going to say?
