“Graphic Designers! Gather around. Here is your chance to have a job that frees you of the burden of being rich! We’re looking for people that will do more work than our sales executives and make a third of what they do! Exciting! Who wants to make $25/hour when you can make $9/hour? Think of the tax advantages! Don’t expect to move up though, unless you know XHTML, Java, Apache, PHP, C+, etc. Of course, then you’d be a programmer, and we’d have to pay you more. But if you are a simple-minded yes-man willing to spend your life chained to your cubicle, able to take harsh criticism, and receive little recognition for your work, then your are just the slob we’re looking for!

“And remember, two million wanna-be’s are gonna be knocking the door down to work with us, so get your r�sum�s in so we can lower the standard and payscale for everyone! Yay!”
