Wanna come work at The Awl?

placesweusedtogo:

I’m great at hatching fun schemes, as all my references will attest to, but terrible at representing myself and my company professionally. Wanna call it even and just close up the position now?

Of course me and Alex are both attracted to the type of people who are irrepressibly unprofessional. I mean, HELLO OBVS. Rules, like teeth, are made to be broken.
