   Difficult for a job ad to have a red flag in every sentence, but not impossible apparently.

     @timClicks I didn’t think you could feel claustrophobic reading a job ad but, clearly, I was mistaken.

     Run, don’t walk.

     This is not a usual job. This will be 100x harder and more stressful than anything you have ever done. You will work a ton, but you will work along the group of the most brilliant people in the world and you will work ONLY ON THINGS THAT MATTER. Hard, interesting problems. Together we are going to define the future for the next 10 years in the social network space, and the skills you get here will set you up for life.

     They need to add a zero to that bullshit either way.
