Hah.
Found my rant about this exact job application, from 13Dec
(added, their request for the link THEY had on THEIR website for the job they were offering. These people might not be the sharpest outfit, maybe I dodged another bullet)
Wow.
Applied for a job at some outfit supporting DoD.
One of their recruiters called me asking which job I applied for.
A month later.
The same outfit, when I applied ONLINE, had to CALL THEM and ask them for a different link for the application process, because their listing form was not working.
Not sure about the job I applied for, anymore, but I know of at least three jobs they need to announce: webmaster/designer, sysadmin and recruiter manager. Minimum.
Shortly after Donald Trump announced that he was running for president, the Hollywood Reporter wrote that a New York–based #casting #agency called Extra Mile had apparently #hired #actors to fill out his announcement event. (which took place on June 16, 2015, at Trump Tower in New York).
Trump’s team immediately denied that anyone at the announcement was a paid actor.
A document released Thursday by the Federal Election Commission, however, concludes otherwise.
The FEC document is, specifically, a record of its decision not to sanction the Trump campaign for conduct related to the apparent transaction.
A complaint filed by an activist group that supported Hillary Clinton had alleged that the Trump camp had violated reporting laws related to payments for the actors;
the FEC concluded that no significant violation had occurred because the campaign later disclosed a payment to a contractor (Gotham Government Relations) that subcontracted with Extra Mile.
But in the course of explaining why it would not discipline the campaign, the FEC concludes that some announcement attendees were, in fact, paid to be there
Shell tries to quash air quality fears from Beaver County chemical plant | Pittsburgh Post-Gazette
When a #terrible #odor blanketed the area around the #Shell #Oil #cracking plant earlier this month, residents had only their noses and sporadically high readings from public air monitors to assess the situation.
Many were left wondering what they were exposed to and whether it was dangerous.
Shell officials hired a senior toxicologist from the consulting contractor #CTEH — the same company hired by #Norfolk #Southern in the wake of its derailment in East Palestine — who told the community that it was safe.
The levels of #benzene, a known carcinogen, detected at the fence line of the petrochemical plant in #Beaver #County PA were too low to “be associated with even transient discomfort or irritation,” said Christopher Kuhlman, the toxicologist that #Shell #hired to review air data and assess exposure.
But Anthony Pizon, chief of medical toxicology at the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center’s Department of Emergency Medicine, who reviewed the air monitoring data on Monday, said “You can #smell something and it can be #irritating.”
“From my vantage point, it’s hard to go off those numbers,” he said. “I would look at the patients themselves.”
He encouraged anyone who thinks they were #exposed to anything #toxic to call the #poison #control #center at 800-222-1222.
