Actual Job Listing

I know the "economy" is rough and all, but this is ridiculous.
Web Designer/Graphic Artist/Receptionist

[Name removed to protect the idiotic] has an exciting opportunity in the south Charlotte, NC area for an individual that loves to wear many hats!
This unique position requires someone that has a great personality and a creative flare!

Web Designer/Graphic Artist/Receptionist

You will contribute to the company by supporting an office of 8 Technicians and assisting by:
-Answering phones
-Providing excellent customer service to customers over the phone
-Maintaining inventory log
-Web Page/Graphics Design

Requirements:
-Flash
-HTML
-Front Page
-Photoshop
-MS Application Support (Word/Excel)
-ASP
-SQL
-MSSMQL
-Must be detailed and self motivated
-Word processing and grammar are very important.

That's right, ladies and gentleman, if you are a Flash/ASP/database web developer and would also like to be a receptionist AT THE SAME TIME, please apply to this company who claims that grammar is important right after misspelling the name of one of the database technologies they expect their new receptionist to know.



[UPDATE: just to clear up any confusion, the actual job posting (NOT placed by me) is here.]

How can you be "detailed"? Do they mean like a car, all polished and waxed with ArmorAll on the interior? I guess that this is another example of how important "grammar" is to them.

Sounds a lot like the last startup I worked at. We had C++ developers actually filling in for the secretary when she got sick, or was busy making presentations on the boss's laptop.

I have sat behind the receptionist desk before, myself, for the same reasons, and I was managine the web dev department at the time, but it was me "being part of the team and helping cover all the bases" not "part of my job description". I wonder if they'll get more receptionist or more DBAs replying to this add...
