Comedies are highlighted in bold:
Our Client is actively looking for a System Engineer or Network Administrator for their location in Atlanta, Georgia. This position will be based form your home. The system engineer will need to be experience in Red Hat, Linux, Microsoft, and Apache servers. Must have a background network configurations, server set up, and script insulations.

This a contact position that will lead to a permanent position for the right candidates.

Sorry, while I’ve got 14 years worth of exp points, I don’t take contact positions. Generally it seems a little bit too unprofessional in the workplace.

However I felt that this post is required reading, so I’m getting it up as quickly as possible.

Just to make sure people are aware, there are plenty of spammers going around pretending to offer you various sums of money to play video games. There are certainly focus groups and testing jobs that are real, but this kind of thing clearly jumps the shark to “I’m a spammer advertising these links!” and most likely has no actual testing jobs behind it. Full spammy e-mail after the fold.
