Matt Ray sends us this excellent want ad, e.g.,

"grep" is a slightly more delicate subject. It's a very complex and powerful search tool that I don't much feel like getting into here. Which is exactly why we need Unix Specialists – to not explain things to you. Here's a tip: next time you're using Linux, and you're stuck on a problem and don't know what to do, don't go to one of the online Linux forums and say "Hey, can you guys help me with this?" because I’m telling you, it ain't gonna happen. What you need to do is go on and say "Hey! Linux is a pile of crap because it can’t do this!" and you’ll have people falling over themselves to get in there and prove you wrong with about a million different solutions for doing that one thing. That's a little tip I'm giving you for free.

And, this is a want ad.

On another note, I think I'm having one of those days.
