Dear employers, please stop mentioning 'remote' unless a) you're OK with r-emote employees, or b) your business is all about about disrupting "r-emote controls", innovating "r-emote assistance" or something like that.

If your posting doesn't include it we'll assume it's not allowed, and you're well within your rights to toss out any application that does request it. Look at it as the easiest filter you'll ever find for resumes. If you really feel need to stress that the job isn't for r-emote workers just say 'LOCAL ONLY' or something like that. Pretty please?

@_whoishiring could you add something to that effect to the monthly post?
