You're damn right. I should have googled her first.

Absolutely. Right again. Just cause I've been outta work for 2 years
straight and nothing pawnable's left in the house and this is my
759th interview, doesn't mean I'm gonna take a job from some
joker cause it sounds good. I want qualifications! Licenses!
Certificates! Credit checks! Proof of billing! Accreditations!
Credentials! Bank statements! References! References for the
references!

OK. I would like to go on the record that we are a website,
that we claim to be a website, and that we advertise ourselves
as a website.

Yeah yeah, I always want to maximize my efforts. So you want me
to show 'em who I am? Well, sure, but, doncha think my facial
tats and my mohican and my nose piercings might turn a lotta
people off, whaddaya reckon? Especially since the writing
community seems to be kinda on the conservative side these days.
Socially, that is, not politically.
