Katie M, if you are in the HR department and they pay you to write job ads, and you don't know "principle" from "principal", I worry about the quality of the rest of the company personnel.

C'mom, Jim, cut people some slack. Plus the spell checker won't catch things like that.

I am pretty skeptical she'll find a good analog guy locally though. A client of mine needed almost two years until they finally found someone, from Canada.

Here's the part I like: "reinventing light itself"

I wonder where she'll find someone to do that?

Well, at least you'd have to give credit to the inventor of light V1.0. Best regards, Spehro Pefhany

Yeah it works pretty good except for the skin cancer part.

Too bad we can't download any software updates to the users...

And Fred said, "Let there be........"

If you're referring to this: " Applies advanced technical principles, theories and concepts. "

Then you're doubly stupid, because you're "correcting" Katie M., who got it right. Your "correction" is the wrong one!

Idiot!

Cheers! Rich

It's OK - he's wrong anyway, and I've chided him suitably. >:->

Cheers! Rich

Did you notice that he got it ass-backwards? The ad was right, and his "correction" is wrong.

Sounds like the kind of mistake that either polarity of extremist, liberal weenie or neocon warmonger, would make, then insist he's right, like a pit bull or the Dick Cheney/Dubya unit.

Cheers! Rich

No, he was right: PRINCIPLE ACTIVITIES / OBJECTIVES

That should have been principal. But oh well, let's not nitpick here. Nobody is perfect and workdays can be very long for HR folks. When I ran a division I never got out before 7:00pm or so and most of the time many of the HR people were still there.

OK - I was referring to the other occurrence:

Where I had ass-u-me'd that that was the one he wanted to change.

Sorry for being hasty - but RGB or whatever insists on being an insufferable top-poster, so screw him anyway.

Cheers! Rich
