Is this Sacco's old position?

 

Didn't see a posting on MG's Web site when I checked a few hours ago.

 

Where did Sacco go?

 

go for it folks...sacco'll do you good. and i mean that in the best possible way...

 

And now, thanks to great work by Daniel Gilbert and our ME J. Todd Foster, we're a Pulitzer Prize winning paper.

Please, send resumes, cover letter clips and fill out our online application.

 

Jim, since you're responding: Can you give us a clue on pay scale and/or length of experience?

 

The public service medal winner. Congrats.

 

UPDATE: I've gotten enough resumes to heat a two-bedroom home for a few days (OK, slight exaggeration.) I plan on sifting over them in a week or so since we're in a very busy time of year right now.

Experience? Eh, I just want to see the right person, not the right amount of time in the business (whatever the hell that means).

Pay scale? What you expect from a daily our size. I'll get into specifics regarding pay with the applicants who make the cut. That's just my style. Sorry if you disagree.

Thanks guy.

Sacco

 

Thanks for the update, Jim!
