Maybe they’re looking for someone who’s good at OCR
Google Lens can probably get it in seconds.
I wore out my percent key typing in the url.
In a way, you just took my virginity. It’s the first time it’s genuinely happened to me, I didn’t see this coming. This is a great feeling but I also feel a bit ashamed.
It’s alright. It’s part of being online. It’s a unique and strange feeling for sure.
YOU SON OF BITCH!!! 😂
I’m in
governmentjobs* But yeah, nice one!
Thank you, I fixed it.
As general rule you should look at where a URL goes as well as what the link text.
A big ass link that is pointed towards tinyurl should have set off alarm bells for everyone who clicked the link.
That was slick @owl
It teaches about cybersecurity.
Incredible beautiful amazing
I want my mommy
Yeah… I want your mommy, too.
She is a nice lady!

You son of a bitch! overnmentjobs 🤣
Thank you, I fixed it.
What a lad.
Perfect in every way, good job.
Ah fuck
Bravo
This reminds me of how my coworker’s little girl wrote Santa a letter and wrote out the Amazon links of everything she wanted in much the same fashion.
I’m sure apps that convert images to text will help with accessing the website.
I thought they didn’t have apps in 2013
Someone felt like making a point.
You open it up and it’s a PDF.
The pdf contains a address you have to go to.
At the address is a single desk, with a woman who tells you that you can only apply online.
Sounds like how digitalisation works in Germany. Put the form online as PDF, then either require the other side to print and send in or recive via email then print it yourself and file it into a cabinet…
And she’s eating from a Costco sized tub of plain Greek yogurt
The friseur that told me on telephone they don’t do reservations and once i got there, i waited a whole hour.
Obviously this is a silly example, but I really do remember when they would write out full urls with paths like 3 directories deep in magazines and newspapers expecting you to manually enter those urls and visit whatever site. I hated that shit in the early days of the internet in grade school. “http://www.theentireforty-ninecharacterlongnameofthecompany.com/marketingadvertisements/newspapertimes/landingpage79fad5c21e.html” (don’t click that link… i just made it up. It doesn’t go anywhere.) I could barely type but now I have to get every character correct or I might accidentally end up on a black market website or porn somehow (where my fellow Whitehouse dot com victims at?). QR codes and smartphones really are godsend for print media internet ads.
P.S. I told you it didn’t go anywhere. You feel better now?
P.P.S. Apparently Whitehouse dot com still functions but is no longer porn. It’s some election betting thing now? Idk.
You could use ` to make that URL an inline code block and thus not clickable. `like this` to look
like this
Seemed more fun this way
I clicked that link
The one in the newspaper? Me too
My first memory of being told to go to a web address was in 4th grade. My teacher wrote a fairly long URL on the board as something those of us who had internet at home could go look at about the lesson she was talking about. So we were expected to write this URL down on paper, and then later type it into a computer. This very slightly predates AOL keywords.
I hope none of had dyslexia or similar…
It took awhile before engineers also became UX people and were like “ok, but let’s start the project from an end user’s point of view.”
Unfortunately soon after that, marketers took over as the bosses of the UX people and were like “ok, let’s start this from a ‘how do we get more people clicking the buy now button’ point of view.”
we have a truly marvelous application process, which this margin is too small to contain
Sick reference, bro.
Pfff these Cavemen still haven’t learned of the invention of QR Codes
damn i missed the deadline by 12 years…
Sadly they’ve already deleted that page because the URL has “trans” in it. >.>
I mean if you type up to the jobid=xyz it’ll work fine :p
If I remember this site correctly from back then, it was one of those run by idiots that made you upload a PDF of your résumé, and then enter all of the same info in web forms. This tracks.
