Getting America Back to Work, One Person At a Time

The job search we'd love to see:

Wanted:

• Leader of Occupy Wall St., an Emerging Class Revolution. (Exact job title, if there is to be one, to be negotiated with the successful candidate.)

Duties/Responsibilities:

• Create a successful, sustainable socio-political-economic movement
• Provide overall strategic and tactical direction for Occupy Wall St. movement
• Define tangible goals for the movement and gain widespread support for them
  
• Organize efforts in 25+ cities domestically and 30+ cities worldwide
• Generate press coverage (i.e., print, television, digital) to communicate/market movement's agenda and accomplishments
• Capture the hearts and minds of current participants
• Attract a significant number of new participants from both the 99% and 1% population segment, growing the movement significantly to achieve the movement's goals
• Additional duties and responsibilities to be set following the successful incumbent's first year on the job

Skills/Abilities:

• Unparalleled leadership/motivational skills
  
• Outstanding strategic planning and execution skills
  
• Thorough knowledge of the current economic climate, U.S. tax codes, unemployment trends, and both U.S. and global politics
  
• Strong verbal and writing skills
  
• Compelling media presence (i.e., strong on-camera persona, ability to converse fluidly with Rachel Maddow, Chris Matthews, Keith Olbermann, Michael Moore, CNN, the BBC, and NPR)
• Ability to converse fluidly with Fox News optional, given that coverage 0n that network likely won't occur
  
• Excellent marketing/sales abilities
  
• Must be able to distinguish clearly the movement's 99% reference from Herman Cain's 9-9-9 plan
  
• Negotiating skills are desired but may not required (unsure if negotiating will occur)
  
• Conversational Spanish highly desired
  
• Must possess thick skin, mind of a successful business leader, soul of a revolutionary (though no requirement to wear a beret)
  
• Ability to work afternoons and nights, as little happens in the morning in a revolution
  
• Willingness to live and sleep outdoors for extended periods
  
• Proven track record of leading a diverse population in a revolutionary cause desired but not required

Extensive travel is anticipated.

Compensation:

The position pays $0 and does not include health benefits or personal time off. All living and travel expenses are the responsibility of the successful applicant. Book deal certain to follow the achievement of the movement's objectives. Television mini-series and/or full-length motion picture also possible. Political office is a distinct possibility (where special interest lobbyists will keep you very well cared for).

Applicant beware: Becoming a member of the 1%, while likely, is to be avoided (or, at least, denied publicly).
