This is some funny shit. Well in a tragic sort of "is the world really turning into a place where this needs to be spelled out" way. Text taken from an actual job posting on craigslist. The job is for a corporate sales manager for a big hotel. About halfway down the page, it's a long ad, I'm sure no one is still reading by the time they get to this....
<<<While performing the duties of this Job, the employee is regularly required to use hands to finger, handle, or feel; reach with hands and arms and talk or hear. The employee is frequently required to stand; walk and sit. The employee must frequently lift and/or move up to 10 pounds. Specific vision abilities required by this job include close vision, distance vision, color vision, peripheral vision, depth perception and ability to adjust focus.>>>
Talk or hear? At the same time? Will I know which to do when? Stand, sit and walk? That's pretty extreme multitasking. Ability to adjust focus? Like with my eyes? Perhaps I could pick up said skill at some sort of seminar, at company expense of course.
Who writes this shit?

It's pretty absurd when written that explicitly, but that's the only reason to do something like that.
