Tell you what, i can’t do any of that stuff.
But what i CAN do is come in, drink your coffee and eat your biscuits. I can also sit around and browse websites and provide witty/crude banter.
I’ll even give you the privilege of paying me for it.
I start first thing monday morning, don’t be late.
Congratulations.
You sir sound like true Government material, your hired!
It was never in doubt.
If you throw in the occasional ScribbleTaku I think you’re a shoe in!
Job perks for this position do indeed include the option of participation in drawing for ScribbleTaku.
Well – i don’t start until Monday – but i am a benevolent leader… you wish has been granted, although, i must warn you, it’s quite deviously clever.

YOU’LL NEVER GET IT! MUAHAHAHA
um…is it Mickey Mousecapade?
It’s obviously Dark Souls.
I love you.
Sounds like I’m getting a raise.
The feeling are mutual.
Man, its Monday morning, I’ve been waiting since 9am… you’ve not arrived…
*golf clap*
I seriously lost it at “Congratulations.”
Would you consider hiring someone to work remotely?
Sorry, but it’s strictly an onsite position,
Wow, first ad ever that actually asks if people knows GIT… Hire me!

By all means feel free to still apply for the role, we understand that everyone has gaps in their knowledge, whilst they can still be very good in other aspects of the job.
Thanks Rob, but I’m afraid I’m unable to leave VIC for the time being 🙂 Will keep a lookout though, that Scribbletaku perk is rather irresistible!
Sydney. Ew.
It constantly surprises me to see php as a serious must-have skill point in a job advert. Just get a decent coder and give them a free afternoon to master it.
It is good to see git as a requirement.
It kills me that I’m the perfect fit for this, but I can’t relocate right now.
-Strong PHP. Write my own libraries if they don’t exist to solve problems.
-Lots of experience with MVC. Particularly Kohana, and a proprietary MVC.
-Lots of experience with Postgres. Have designed complete schemas for many apps. Good at denormalising DBs for performance, and writing queries.
-I’m OCD when it comes to software quality. I’m not satisfied when code is “functional”, it should also be clean and efficient, and ideally reusable.
-Write HTML and awesome JS with OO patterns. Have a working understanding of CSS, but I’m not a designer.
-Strong jQuery. Familiar with bootstrap, but haven’t delved too deep into it.
-Manage my own Ubuntu Server for fun.
-I even make branches before I commit breaking changes.
-I love building new software that does cool things, especially if it uses new tech (websockets, cassandra, html5, etc).
But… can’t relocate away from Brisbane for the foreseeable future, so ineligible. 🙁
Thats a shame dude as you sound like you fit the bill.
