Looking for motivated applicants for a non-profit position

by miriam＠freebsdgirl.org

Greetings all, I figured the new sudo-jobs list would be a fine place to recruit new hires for my non-profit co-op. I'm looking for people who are opposed to the system of capitalism and the notion of building capital, distrust and disrespect authority, and promote anarchy. We are looking to fill several positions. Your responsibilities would be writing stream-of-conciousness posts on your notions of what other people should do, what the world should be like, and changes you would like to see in the world. No actual work or effort on your part is necessary. Our company is not a corporation in the traditional sense, we are actually squatters living in a run-down shack in East Oakland and mostly scrounge food from dumpsters and "wealth hack" (panhandle) in nice neighborhoods. It is my hope that the fine folks at the Sudoroom Community Center would be uniquely qualified for a position with us, so please feel free to contact me with your resume or a finely crafted critique on the capitalist system. -Miriam
