There's a guy in our office whose arse is very anti-social today.

We've nearly run out of air freshener and may have to start spraying pledge around to cover the smell.

Paris due to her allegedly friendly arse...

...but WTF is a "Healthcare Informaticist" ??? I've done the analysis (business AND system) for an application that covered international medical insurance pretty comprehensively and I have *NEVER* met a Healthcare Informaticist to date !!

Is it animal, vegetable or mineral ??

All this smacks of someone who is totally without any knowledge of the requirements making up specifications for yet another spectacular IT failure in the, already overburdened, health system.

the "friendly posterior and aspiritions to move higher in your career" - is what is worrying me. Very worrying implication. I feel sore already!

It's not your usual typo is it?

I've been struggling to come up with what the correct line should have been.

...old fartshion, Ishkandar?

How can we believe that you have "done the analysis (business AND system) for an application that covered international medical insurance " when you don't indicate your BBR (buttock bonhomie rating)???

avatar chosen on the grounds that "there is a real a**e!"

A quick search revealed this:

"As the position of Clinical Informaticist is relatively new, there is no specific training required by a governing or licensing body. Rather each hospital or research facility sets the requirements within their research or Management Information Systems team. "

Maybe it's a job for the Hospital Administrator's or Chief Consultant's mistress and salary may depend on how friendly her posterior is.

....tell us - what the hell was it supposed to read!!!

'disposition' would be my guess - but then that sounds like a pet!

I think it should be friendly persona, just someone had a few too many shandys before writing the ad!

They like sociable posteriors and they cannot lie.

"I've been struggling to come up with what the correct line should have been."

Demeanour?

"friendly posterior and aspiritions to move higher in your career"

Is this related to the requirement to have "2-3yrs experience under your belt" ?

Have your friendly posterior rewarded with a generous package?

Let me think about that for a moment...

No.

Thanks. But No.

Surely this ad is 'tongue in cheek' ... :)

...I hate to think what kind of e-mail attachments and faxes she's been getting as a result of this. Not that any El Reg readers or staffers will be warming their butt-cheeks on the office scanner I'm sure...*ahem*

My best guess is "positive demeanour" or something like that, thoroughly mangled...

I have a great candidate in mind ...

So no Ballmer types wanted. Perhaps the previous incumbent was too hard with them.

Is that someone who commits Informaticide?

It's essential for the job, because the output from Connecting for Health is a complete load of crap.

..is an "informaticist"

Maybe they meant exterior but felt they should aim a little lower for this position
