    Exclamation Spam: Smith Optics Needs an Assistant Web Developer

    Sorry for the spam but I need to make sure that all the best Mags see this opportunity.

    We are hiring an Assistant Web Developer, a full time position with full benefits located in beautiful Ketchum, ID. You would be working for a good friend of mine who is a resident genius developer and an all around good-timer.

    We are very much a work-hard/play-hard company (see Outside Magazine's Best Places to Work for the past several years), so don't think for a second that this will be some cushy, ski bum job. There is a reason we are the best optics company in the world...we bust our ass and are VERY passionate about what we do. You will work your teets off, but have a good time doing it and work with great people.

    If you are interested and think you're qualified, go to http://www.smithoptics.com/careerDetail.html?id=22 and apply!

    PLEASE DO NOT PM ME! I don't have anything to do with the the hiring and cannot help you nor answer questions.

    THANKS!!!

    Let's just hope that the web developer doubles as the ad designer which would mean the the moron who created that obnoxious & intrusive smith banner ad that was on this site a few months back has been shitcanned. Hopefully the person who has approved it is gone too!

    I'm guessing you're refering to the talking Oakley ads? We do run banners on there but they're silent and pretty tame.

    But....

    If you are talking about the Smith banners with Ian Stompintosh sending it like a fucking mad man or Sage putting his wizard spell on the deep then you should just sign off, never come back and leave the forums to people with a complete cerebral cortex. Those were some of the most bad ass ads i have ever seen on the internet. No one has done it better.

    So claim.
    Fortunately the former, as I'd hate to be labeled a goat fucker. I humbly request forgiveness.

    My apologies for the mistaken ID and thread cunting. Let me know if you want me to edit my nonsense out of your recruiting thread.

    With this post, I think you've earned the honor of having the best "total posts to sig-worthy posts" ratio on this forum. Funny shit.

    Free bump to TRF who still claims the honor of my all-time favorite TGR post in the Raps Asspen Cougar thread.

I know nothing of the former. But the latter is made of courage, and skill, and grace in the presence of the possibility of death. If someone could make a jacket of those three things it would no doubt be the most popular and prized item in all of your closets.

    No worries, Bronaise. No offense taken. Powdirt, on the other hand...he seems pretty upset.

    wow. "Sage putting his wizard spell on the deep?" that is a choice selection of words. I have checked out a bunch of photos of him from this season and it seems he did just that all year long

    pretty sick opportunity.

    I'd think Smith would have a waiting line for this position.

    I like Smith. They are a good company and they make great helmets, goggles, and sunglasses.

    Actually those annoying ass Oakley ads were Smith adds. When those were running I heard multiple people on here (myself included) talk about running out and buying Smith goggles and only Smith goggles for life.
    Thats one effective add (just not for the guys that paid for it)!


    man I wish I was a web developer, I bet Smith would be one great company to work for!

    My Aunt used to work for Smith and said it was the greatest job of all time. She was in marketing I believe and worked/made connections with some amazing people involved with skiing/biking. Someone should hop on this...Ketchum, ID is beautiful and Smith rocks!
