Here is a translation what you can REALLY expect whenever you see one of these in a Classifieds Careers/Jobs section:


"exceptional positive attitude" -> translation: *Boss is an asshole and a dictator who blows off his top thirteen times a day!*

"willing to work long hours" -> translation: *Forget about your family, or any personal life at all!*

"stamina to work long hours" -> translation: *In other words you are expected to be a cross between a jackass, a camel and an ox!*

"you are a self-starter" -> translation: *We have no idea what we are doing, but we sincerely hope, you will!*

"can work independently" -> translation: *Don’t expect any support from us!*

"provide assurance and consulting services to our clients"-> translation: *You are an extremely skillful liar!*

"exceptional organizational skills"-> translation: *We hope we finally get someone who can clean up that big mess we have here!*

"winning positive attitude" -> translation: *Never get bogged down no matter how stupid the management decisions are!*

"ability to work in fast-paced environment" -> translation: *Break? What break…?*

"you feel like an essential member of a corporate family" -> translation: *You are not going to tell our secrets to the tax office, right?*

"you are responsible and dependable" -> translation: *We expect you to keep your mouth shut no matter what you see, what we do/don’t do!*

"willing to work hard" -> translation: *Slavery, the legal way*

"extremely busy environment" -> translation: *We are understaffed*

"friendly customer service" -> translation: *You are mentally challenged and smiling to it!*

"outstanding customer support service" -> translation: *You have an experience working as a lion tamer or at least as a high school teacher!*

"ability to work in a challenging environment" -> translation: *You can always B.S. your way out!*

"positive outlook" -> translation: *What? You expect us to actually pay you for your work…?!*
