Translation: we're going to work you like a dog and not apologise for it or 
even thank you for dealing with the chaotic sh**hole that is our company. 
Also, note the lack of details relating to remuneration. So they're going to 
pay you close to nothing to boot. And it requires you to move to New Jersey!

These guys really aren't selling this position, and personally I'm offended 
that they think the people on freebsd-jobs would be anything but 
professional in their approach, and need to be reminded that they shouldn't 
"coast".

Is there a perception out there that we're all looking to sit around picking 
our noses whilst reading slashdot? 

We're FreeBSD admins. Not MCSEs or Linux admins.
