Help wanted, census taker. Good pay and benefits.

Illegible writing a must...spelling does not count.

Must be able to write over an entry 3-4 times.

Must be able to write when pen is out of ink.

Must be a able to invent abbreviations like mch for Michael or ebth for Elizabeth.

Must be willing to leave out important entries, like family numbers and color.

Must be willing to save time by only entering the first initial for each person, on every sheet you complete.

Must find new and unique ways of spelling names and places, like Josephfean and Inndianner.

If you have the above qualifications, we want YOU for our up and coming 2010 census.

Sure, you can use it..I am lmao here, because I did this on a census break..I go back to type and find the Irish name Honora..spelled Hennora. I know the name isnt right. It gets that red squiggle under it meaning it isnt on their list, plus there is no other way to spell that..and I am not supposed to fix this...lol grrrr.

I wrote that thing in 5 minutes..had I taken more time..I could have added more to it..lol

LOL Or something.

I just got Patrick spelled as Parick. I fixed it. I hope whomever checks these things..does not let these names stay wrong. I think its important to correct, what you KNOW is right, so people can find their people. I dont fix many, because they tell you not to..only states or countries.

Baileys..thats what I could go for..on ice..lol
