Job Description

Ok, this is a serious question.

Who in their right mind could possibly want the top job in this country.

The pay is not that great. Personal liberty is almost non-existent, both during and after your term. You have the fate of the country and world in your hands, and every move you make is examined, critiqued and publicized. No matter how good a job you do, there will always be someone out there who wants to do you in. If you read this job description, would you rush to apply?

Ok, so you do get free room, board and transportation for you and your family and there is all that power......

Let's see....It might look like this:

Wanted

Man or woman for executive position.

• Must have excellent leadership skills. Prior leadership experience helpful but not necessary.
• Charisma a definite plus.
• An extensive background check will be performed, and negative findings may or may not be disqualifying.
• Interview period: +/- 18 months. Note: During the interview you will be required to state exactly what you will accomplish if hired, without any knowledge of actual working conditions or true world situation.
• Contract period: 4 years, with possible 4 year extension. Contract may be terminated for cause at any time, but this has never happened and is highly unlikely.
• Duty day: 24/7/365
• Every decision made will be second-guessed, examined, criticized and publicized constantly and forever.
• Successful candidate will be required to give up personal driving, cell phone and most private time. Executive, spouse and children will be in constant physical peril; company provides security. Additionally, every action of spouse and children will be subject to constant scrutiny and publicity.
• Successful candidate may be required, with little notice, to make decisions that affect every soul on Earth.
• Candidate will be judged on his/her ability to read/speak English.
• Successful candidate will have his or her ass kissed by a truly incredible number of people, and will have the effect of stopping virtually all productive activity within a several mile radius.
• Some travel will be required. All transportation is provided by the company.
• Room and board included.
• Medical benefits: Exceptional.
• Note: At the end of your employment you will have the right and power to forgive the crimes of, and release if incarcerated, any person accused or convicted of any crime, civil or criminal within the United States of America.

I think that anyone who actually wants this job is not mentally fit for the position.
