[*.offered and *.contract replaced with more appropriate groups]

Why the hell is this getting posted in *.offered?  You know it's showing up
several times in some groups, because they're aliased to some of the
obsolete groups (like misc.jobs)?

Please, people, start editing your headers!

*.offered gets forwarded to lots of other places, for instance I deliver
hardcopies of ba.jobs.offered to both Alumnae Resources and Experience
Unlimited in San Francisco here. I just spent a half hour editi ng out this
bullshit flamewar.

As to the issue at hand, my opinion is that if I'm applying for a computer
support job and they want a drug test, I'll turn heel and walk out.  If
I'm applying for a railroad operating crew position, I will tolerate it.
There *are* places where it's somewhat legit.  I can't imagine too many
of them would be of interest to the readers of these newsgroups tho. :-)

P.S. Watch your headers and edit them appropriately, puh-leez!
This is a recording. *BEEP*
