I hate local commercials.

There is a certain union which has put out a recruitment commercial, stating "if you are the type of person who believes that everything happens for a reason, there is a reason you are seeing this commercial."

Is it just me, or is appealing to someone's sense of fatalism the wrong way to go about seeking qualified employees? I mean, I don't really feel comfortable knowing that next time I need to rely on certain large scale public structures that they might have been put together by someone who knows jack about using a nail gun but who really believes that the universe has conspired to put him in career using power tools.

That's one of the most brilliant and frightening taglines I have ever read.

The "universe" position is how I got where I am today, and that's been a pretty good match...

(Of course, MY job doesn't affect public safety...)

Do you hear a building falling...??
