Anyone need a Job out there? Cox Newspapers has a bunch

[Up2Late]

I was just doing another Job search, here in Atlanta, when I decieded to click the link to Jobs at the Atlanta_Journal-Constitution. Looks like they have a bunch of opening, and don't seem to have much in the way of past expiriance requirements. I say, the best way to change the News, is from the inside.

Anyone here think they can fill these Jobs?:evilgrin:

1. I'll go take one of those Gannon 2 day Journalism "Schools" and apply...

Someone with time on their hands should apply, see if they get an interview, and report back!

2. Having had worked for a Cox company for 5 years

The benefits are reallllllly good.

The company I worked for even offered Domestic partner health insurance.

3. Cox like in Cox Communications? The repuke co?

A repuke working for them in my neighborhood still has his bushitler sign hanging on his palm tree... but I wouldn't work for them under any circumstances.

4. Oh, come ON, What better way to take back the News...

...than to get a bunch of DU "Moles" inside?

I can see the Fox "news" headline/graphic, "Is Cox Moving Left?":evilgrin:

[lonestarnot]

8. Ok you have a point...

[justiceischeap]

7. Yep

I worked for Manheim Auto Auction which is owned by Cox. Fortunately, my benefits were way better than those described below.

5. I work for a Cox subsidiary now...

1. The health insurance sucks. Nobody likes it, but I guess it's better than nothing. They're self-insured, and I'm really glad I was able to opt out. (Hubby has BCBS Federal, and it's awesome!) They still offer the domestic partner insurance.

2. Company-paid long-term disability at 60% - cannot opt out.

3. Dental plan is separate from health insurance, and pays decent.

4. Some sort of pension (10 year vesting), but they're not very forthcoming with specifics - just that it's a benefit.

5. 401k - they match 50 cents on the dollar, with their max contribution at 3%.

Also miscellaneous other benefits, including tuition reimbursement.

The money stinks, but I work 7 miles from home and wear jeans and sneakers to work!

6. I didn't mean to disparage COX

Just thought a few "Underground" DU Democrats Might tend to push COX back to the Left, Just a tiny bit :evilgrin:

Hummmm? COX - Fox? Hey, they rhyme:silly:

[lonestarnot]

9. Yes they do rhyme...DUrs need to send resumes! But I would be

YER FIAD! my first day. LOL

[Up2Late]

11. Sorry, I don't understand what you mean by "YER FIAD?"

"What you taking 'bout, Willis?":silly:

[lonestarnot]

12. You are fired! LOL n/t

[Lerkfish]

10. you're overestimating the influence of entry level employees

13. Longview TX

as this indicates is home to a Cox newspaper.

Believe it or not, the News-Journal endorsed Kerry and, of course, caught unshirted hell for it. The editor who wrote it is a native of the unionized area of Ohio. He is named Litterski and I guess he has proven to the rednecks around here he's got brass ones.
