    "Seymour Johnson" is right up there with "I.P. Freely" and "Dick Tater."

    They were hiring about three months ago. I don't know what happened with that position. This could be the same one or a different one.

    It doesn't look like they ever hired anyone from the last time the position was posted. They didn't have an easy time filling a position the time before that, about six months ago.

    There's more than one reason for that.
