Just like we did last year on TMS with the Summer Internship, we are once again looking for some interested candidates that have the motivation and drive to come blog with us.  Only difference this year is we're not looking for interns but someone to be a full-time writer with us.

Because I'm lazy I will just copy and paste what I wrote last year for the intern search with some slight revisions.

We're looking for 1 or 2 motivated bloggers that would like to come aboard and begin writing for an "established" Cubs blog.

• Have you ever wanted to write for a blog but haven't found the time or know-how to get up and running?
• Have you in the past, or currently wrote your own personal blog but have become discouraged by the lack of traffic/notice your work is receiving, or have you burned out trying to single-handedly keep fresh content up?

If either of those have ever happened to you than this is the perfect opportunity.

Excited? Well you f'n should be! Let's go over some of the rules and criteria for the Intern program new writer position.

• This is not a paid job, in fact we'll probably try to bum money off of you.
• Must be 21 years of age to be considered.
• Must have a good sense of humor and not be easily offended or insulted.
• Must be a fan of the Chicago Cubs.
• Must have a solid base of pop culture knowledge in some capacity (i.e. music, movies, books, televison, comic books, s&m pornography, etc.).
• Must be committed to writing at least 1 blog post a week minimum.
• Whoever we "hire" will be put on a probationary 3 month trial.  You know, in case you turn out to be a raging psychopath.  We already have plenty of those on staff already.
• Must have a Gmail account.
• Must possess competent writing skills.
• Must be able to drink Old Style without complaint or remorse for your liver and colon.
• Accepted applicant will receive a free shot of Malört* which can be redeemed at Thunderfist 2010.

Still in? Then drop us a line at exileonclark[at]gmail.com and specify your interest. We'll take applications until Friday May 5th. Then we'll pool the applicants together and put them through a series of challenges. Open-hand slapfighting with Ginger Russ, scotch drinking with Wolter, spinach eating with T.R., shirtless arm wrestling** with Goreo, and other various feats of strength may be part of the agenda.

*No you will drink it!  Don't be such a pussy!
