Hey, gang, they're hiring a copy editor.

Via Sean McCarthy, who, at no charge, copy edits the mistakes in the ad.

I've done enough copy editing to last me a lifetime, thank you very much.

The ad currently states, "BostonNOW seeks copyeditor..."

Sean suggests it read, "BostonNOW seeks copy editor..."

I amend that with, "BostonNOW a seeks copy editor..."

You gotta love a headline about terrorists getting the death penalty in a country that doesn't execute, followed by a story about a tanker fire closing ramps to the Bay Bridge in SFO accompanied by a file photo of the Golden Gate Bridge.

Then again, they could make it like a contest: the first person to discover that the job does not come with 16 weeks paid vacation and an unaudited expense account wins the position!
