The world is a strange place. I've come to peace with the fact that anything I think would be a no-brainer (like hiring a 24000 hour pilot to fly jets for a few more years) somehow are bad ideas as determined by HR or some guy at the panel. I'd say apply if you need work. If we don't hire you it's our loss, not your failure. Come on over! If you like talking about weird stuff somewhere over the middle of nowhere, I'll write you a letter. PM me!
