Suck still archives the best writing about the worst anything. As a former technical writer, I couldn't help but laugh and cry (not necessarily in that order) about "Low-level Jobs to Avoid," specifically mine:
Pros: "You always wanted to be a writer, right?"
Cons: "You're writing about the 12 steps Bank of America tellers should take when handling large-currency transactions" and "Your colleagues are the kinds of people who diagram complicated sentences for fun in their spare time."
Job Requirements: "Learning mind-numbingly dull things, and then teaching them to people even stupider than you are" and "Maintaining an attention to detail - detail so detailed you'll want to tear your hair out every few seconds."
Managerial Mantra: "I want those four bullet points on letters of credit to be perfectly clear and concise. Spend a few more hours reworking them until they're exactly right."
Definite Sign of Mental Instability: "You took real pride in your work on the Copier Safety Awareness Self-Study."
God, I miss it so.
