Workaday

You're overqualified.

Yes! Yes I am! Hire me anyway! Risk it all on an overachiever!


We think you'd be bored here.

Oh my goodness! Is that the time?


But what do you really want to do?

Sell socks?


Why do you want to work here again?

Oh my goodness! Is that the time?


Well, we can pay you, but not very much.

Oh that's okay. We just got married and we're feeling pretty optimistic. In fact, we just rented a sweet little "starter" apartment. We figure that maybe by the time we're 50 we'll have saved enough to put a down-payment on a nice shack in Oregon. We hear it's rainy there!


And we can't really offer benefits right now.

Benefits, shmenifits! I'm pretty healthy. Sure there was that trouble with the toe last year and the infection, blah blah blah. But come on, who really needs ten full toes anyway?


Are you a superstar? We're looking for a superstar.
