maybe a ridiculous question, but does this job require us to work in your factory or can it be done by home? ie answering emails, forwarding phone calls to home, etc

Not a ridiculous question, but yes, you would have to work here at our Kansas facility.

okay thanks for the reply. would have been a cool opportunity but I'm far from Kansas

With this Motley crew of mispelling, beer swilling hillbillys I certainly hope you don't have your hopes to terrible high of finding the perfect candidate here ?

Any openings for a position where the employee receives products, gets to play and try to break them? Essentially a beta tester, but on the payroll. :smile:

Yeah, but beer swilling hillbillies are my favorite kind of people!

I'm hearing ya ! :party:

Ha! I'd move to Kansas for that job! :yipi:

I hear you me too!!

My 2 fingers would never keep up. Lol.

It must have taken a long @$$ time to type those 4000+ posts.:rules:

30WPM isn't that bad/hard...:neutral:


soooo, what did the person(that got the ax) do. :whistle:

That's a skill required for sucess in any job in the business world as far as I'm concerned.
