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 f…

Yeah, this is really annoying. Ctrl-f r emote and I just get millions of "no re mote" posts. I think most people assume it's not remo te unless stated explicitly, so there's no need to say 'no rem ote'.

We are currently seeking an expert JavaScript / Front-End Developer to create a next-generation user interface, either full-time or on contract (we don't mind).

Knack | http://knackhq.com/jobs | REMOTE | Senior Software Engineer | 70-120k +equity

Knack (http://knackhq.com) is a database PaaS that makes it easy for anyone to build online database apps. We're growing rapidly and looking for software (node/mongo/solr) engineers/developers.

We're focused on building a profitable long-term business with a product our customers love. We don’t compete with Google on start-up perks, but we can more than compete if you’re looking to sink you teeth in and make a difference:

* Impact: we’re expecting anyone that joins to come in and have a major impact. We’re small enough that every customer interaction, every marketing spend, every line of code has an over-sized impact.

* Equity: we don’t need hired-guns, we want team members. We want to share our long-term vision and success, and make sure you have equity in that journey.

* Autonomy: we don’t look for specific roles, we look for good fits. You’ll be able to contribute with your strengths and determine the projects you want to drive forward.

* Flexibility: supporting our chosen lifestyles is major part of our success equation. Join a remote team and create your own hours. Work how and where you want to.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

In Munich, 30 days of vacation is meanwhile already quite normal. Why do you offer 26 only?

Wait, there are places in the world that get more than two weeks of vacation?! :)

Four weeks during summer, one week for Easter, two more weeks for Christmas and new year. This should be norm.

LOCAL ONLY with caps on should be fine. Because, from my experience, if the company doesn't mention rem0te, it doesn't really mean that they are not open to rem0te candidates, especially if you're a good fit.
