Employment for the accumulation of economic benefits
To get the job you first must learn the language. We understand that there is a special language associated only with job descriptions and job applications and this language must be mastered. Despite how you might feel about the strange and confusing nature of this language it actually makes the entire process much more honest. Nobody speaks this language, although there are many individuals involved in recruitment who are fluent in it. It is not a language that in any way enables human expression, which almost every other language on the planet it designed for. What it does make perfectly clear, however, is the first thing required of you if you would like to fit this position; repress your natural flow of expression. It is not appropriate and it is not acceptable. What would be truly inhuman is if we provided a warm and friendly interview process and a job description that is lucid and in the native language of the writer and the reader. This would be inhuman because we then need to proceed to the workplace where this type of warmth and normality is completely unacceptable and the role we are paying you to perform is the only acceptable presence. We adhere to this recruitment method because we do not want to become swept up in the natural process of the universe in which the right person comes to us at the right time. Submitting to this process not only undermines our ability to control as much as possible of our business and the people associated with it but it also leaves us open for problematic and unnecessary developments and evolutions in the culture of our company. It is important that we continue to provide a consistent unchanging service to our shareholders. We all need money in this world. One cannot live without money, and so we must do what is required to make this money that we need to remain alive. We must submit to the will of the employer, who after all is only submitting to the will of her employer. To be profound for a moment we must in fact submit to the will of employment itself. We are human and nothing is more human than employment. It has become the natural way and will now always be the natural way of humanity. To be initiated as an adult one must seek, submit and adhere to employment for the duration of one's adulthood. This is responsibility. This is maturity. And of course the economy is our secular god though we don't need to talk about that it does not pay to think about these things. Now is the time, brothers and sisters, to release yourself to employment for the accumulation of economic benefits.
