job interview

A process in which arrogant recruiters deny themselves the benefits of many talented, capable, candidates due to an unfair screening process that in absolutely no way reflects the everyday job situation or assesses the skills required to succeed.
A talented person who had produced major growth in his previous company and had 5 years of experience in C# got a rejection after a job interview in which the recruiter said he was not skilled enough to do the job. This was because they asked questions on language concepts that are rarely used in C# and gave a brainteaser algorithm to code up in a 15 minute time limit without a compiler or computer.

Job Creators

GOP/Tea Party propaganda term for uber-wealthy Americans. Typically used when Democrats suggest asking America's billionaires and corporate entities to shoulder their fair share of the tax burden.

The thinking is that if you take away any of rich people's $$$, they will stop putting their money back into the economy (aka creating jobs). Unfortunately, these rich fuckers could care less about creating jobs, unless it's cheap overseas labor... and when they don't pay their taxes, America suffers.
What a sec, isn't this whole "job creators" b.s. the same thing Raegan tried to sell us back in the 80s with "trickle-down economics." Ouch, my ass hurts. Somebody get me some Vaseline!

Job Creationist

When there is a religious type belief, against all evidence, that cutting taxes on the super wealthy(i.e. job creators) is the best thing that can be done for a nation, even in times of high national deficit and the worst inequality gap in the country's history.

Coined by Wyatt Cenac of the Daily show
Just like creationists believe that an imaginary being in the sky created the world and it's people a few thousand years ago with the wave of a hand, as opposed to evolution with the copious evidence that comes with it, Job creationists believe that giving tax breaks to millionaires and conserving loopholes so they can rake in millions more, while starving the rest of the population, is the most righteous path to solvency.

Job-ad cock tease

A job advertisement which is presented in a way which misleads you into initially thinking you have a chance of getting the job. However, on closer inspection, the job will turn out to be one you cannot possibly get. Especially common are those advertised in their title as 'suitable for graduates', but then in the second line state 'experience needed.' This creates anger and discouragement among those who are job hunting.
'I got my hopes up when I saw this job advertised for graduate analysts, but after I read on it said you needed 2 years experience. Looks like it's back to McDonald's for me. Fuck, what a Job-ad cock tease !'

job skirt

A skirt with a front fly paired with a button or snap, belt loops, and front or back pockets, resembling a typical pair of pants.

Named as such because they are frequently worn to work by women working in positions held mostly by women, as opposed to other types of skirts that are worn in occupations held by a lot of men.

Most jean skirts are job skirts.
She just loves to wear job skirts.

Job Rapist

A Job Rapist is a term coined by Strictly-Software.com to describe Bad Internet Crawlers e.g a BOT that does not conform to the normal protocols of automated website crawling. Especially on recruitment based websites that advertise jobs e.g jobboards.

This bad behaviour may include ignoring the Robots.txt file standards that tell BOTS which pages they can and cannot access and over crawling a site to the point of bringing it down.

However the main reason why a BOT would be labelled a Job Rapist is that it steals jobs without the site owners consent. Instead of asking if they can take job adverts from Site A to put on their own site they instead crawl the site without permission stealing the job content AKA Job Raping.

Job Rapists are mainly aggregators who are trying to build up their database of jobs without paying for them.
My jobboard was scraped again today by that awful Job Rapist JobRapido.

If an internet police did exist then the job raping of recruitment sites would be a severe crime alongside email harvesting, spamming and hacking.

Job For a Cowboy

A deathcore band turned death metal after their first release, Doom EP, pinned them as a poser deathcore band made for Hot Topic scene kids. The band was hated by "real" death metal fans mostly because of the vocalist's pig squeals. The band continues to receive hate from death metal fans due to the Doom EP, even though the band has released 3 very good technical death metal records since Doom and the band still receives a lot of hate from their former Hot Topic scene kid fans for not playing "br00tal breakdowns" since Doom. Job For A Cowboy is a very good technical death metal band but will sadly never be taken seriously despite their amazing efforts.
JFAC Fan: "Have you heard Job For A Cowboy lately?"
DeathMetalHead: "No way, they're a poser band for scene kids."
JFAC Fan: "Have you heard Genesis? Ruination? Gloom?"
DeathMetalHead: "Well......no......"

SceneKid: "Y U NO PLAY BREAKDOWNS ANYMORE?"
JFAC Fan: "Because they got talented."
