HAL Systems is looking for a senior technical writer for a challenging
position with a dynamic team of bacteria on Europa! As Senior Writer, you
will cull information about the Europan bacteria and develop requirements
analysis documents and on-line help systems using Robo-Probe.
The ideal candidate will possess:
- 57 years experience as a technical writer, programmer, artificial life
form, and xenobiologist.
- A PhD in everything and then some.
- Ability to work under extreme conditions such as lack of oxygen, absence
of atmospheric pressure, and decreased gravity.

If you are ready to stop working for oppressive, repulsive, insidious,
odiferous, multi-headed SMEs, this is the opportunity you have been waiting
for. As a member of the Euopan team you will never have to work with anyone
ever again. In fact, we rarely hear from the people we send out there.
As a member of the HAL team you will receive:
- A great view of all the inner moons.
- My God, it's full of stars.
- Long-term benefits (immortality, ability to manipulate energy into matter
and vice versa).
- Fantastic health care. Some HAL members managed to live 1000 years.
- A psychotic computer.
- No pay.
- A cool spherical office with grabber arms.
