(+) Yeah! (+)

How fuckingstupid some recruiters are.

"I will not be relocating" means "please send me jobs that require me to relocate".
"I will not be doing entry level help desk or will do service desk for consumer/client facing needs" means "I'm definitely looking for a help desk role and would love it if you could have it so I'll be getting called up for the entire 8 hours being screamed at by inept idiots"

And the best one
"Nothing less than 35k" translates as "we'll get you maybe 25k if you're lucky, you'll be working for an idiot, the company never intends to promote you and you'll be on call, that's not paid but the entire team does it so it's completely fair! You also can't get drunk or leave your computer for more than 10 minutes in case you need to resolve a properly remotely. You also will be on call for the 48 hours of the weekend every fourth week and from 5pm-9am 3 days a a week"

But my absolutely favourite thing is: yes send me the job spec over of the third one
Means "don't send me anything, ignore my email, then three days later email me with a bunch of unrelated jobs and when I mention my reply to you 3 days ago you don't remember fucking sending me any jobs at all because you're a FUCKING IDIOT"

I'm kinda triggered, sorry.

can we please help calm me down
