This is a new recruiting technique...

I got this email from a recruiter today and almost spit soda all over my laptop:

Dear Mr. Burgess,

Per your request please see blow job description for the Sr. Programmer
position with Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxx.  Please let me know if you have any
questions.  I would appreciate if you could please send me your updated
resume in MS Word format and the best time to reach you for a telephone
interview.

Now that's the kind of fringe benefit that will keep me working at the office for long hours.  That is, as long as I am the recipient and not the person expected to perform said description.
