Job posting I saw a few weeks back:

"Looking for a web developer who knows JavaScript or how most people refer to as Java."

Jesus...

A simple fucking search of "is Java and JavaScript the same" with a few million to a few hundred million results returned in milliseconds would save you from looking like a dumb shit. Now you'll never get anyone to fill that position, because every thinks you're a dumb shit (which you are).

Also, welcome to devRant!

"Java is to javascript as car is to carpet"

maybe the job ad guy was being sarcastic

@lwhken I genuinely hope so.

But let's be realistic, a mentally handicapped monkey can do better than most recruiters, and it's highly unlikely that he's being sarcastic.

Its like " You only had one job " don't fuck it up..

15 mins later " we're looking for someone who knows java or how most people refer to as JavaScript "

@jhh2450 Just heard of dev rant yesterday, already love it.
