Airmen Needed!


We're fed up with the exorbitant cost of renting in San Francisco, so we've decided to move the entire Cordarounds operation onto our brand-new airship as soon as possible. That's right, the world's finest horizontal corduroy pants will be produced amongst the clouds. Soaring eagles will inspire our scientists; brilliant sunshine will invigorate our seamstresses. It's one more reason to feel superior when you slip on a pair.

But we're going to need help.  Lots of help.  The Cordarounds Zeppelin will require hundreds of able-bodied crew members, from pilots to Pilates instructors.  Of course, liftoff may be later rather than sooner (see funds raised below), so there’s plenty of time for you to begin training. All you need is the right attitude and at least one pair of horizontal corduroy trousers. Remember, we’re not looking for just anyone, we’re looking for anyone who wears pants.  



All positions will carry the "aero-” prefix, making even the most mundane endeavor significantly more important-sounding (Aeroaccountant -- now that's more than a job, that's an adventure!)  In addition, our salaries and comprehensive benefits package are among the best in the airborne pant-manufacturing industry.

Current job openings:

Aerochef: Duties will include overseeing the harpooning and gourmet preparation of geese and other migratory fowl.

Aeroconductor: Responsible for leading our in-house symphony orchestra in thunderous Wagnerian overtures whenever the Cordarounds Zeppelin appears on the horizon.

Aeroaristocrat: Pompous dandy, professional layabout, with blood bluer than
the stratosphere. Manages compulsory cocktail hour(s).

Aerostrongman:  Will do the business’ "heavy lifting," both literally and figuratively -- mostly literally.  Minimum three years of handlebar-mustache growth required.

AeroC++ Engineer, Level 5: Conceptual understanding of software design process, with focus on database and data analytics. Knowlege of Perl and formation.  Wing-walking experience encouraged.

AeroAquanaut:  Did we mention our Olympic-sized swimming pool?

We're as new to Zeppelineering as you are.  So if you have skills that would make you uniquely suited for our airship, or know of a position the Zeppelin can't do without, please add it to the comments section by clicking below.

Chris,

To pick up on the proper Zeppelin Zen, I refer you to Howard Hughes epic "Hell's Angels".. the German commander of the Zeppelin bombing London is a favorite character... His wide-eyed zeal and suicidal allegiance to all things Zeppelin are worthy of the Cordarounds Zeitgeist.

My wife and I ran around exclaiming "Allzebomben" to each other for weeks after that....




How, pray tell, do you plan on propelling your airship?




Yo Orlando, Have you ever heard of wind power!




Thank you Bennett. I will read it on my upcoming holiday to Haarlem.

To resolve the dispute between the Colonel and Ed, the cordarounds Zeppelin will be powered by cold fusion. Remember: Cordarounds commitment to innovation knows no bounds.




I'm a downsized Norwegian harpooner. Now that Minke wales are hunted by robots, my skills are no longer needed. I'd like to thank you for giving a person with my skillset the hope for future employment. I'm not much of a cook, but by time she launches, I'll be ready to be your aerochef.




Some Aero-positions I am integested in:

Aero-philosopher -- to write the Critique of Pure Horizontality

Aero-ambassador -- to help bring the message of hope to the flatlanders.

Aero-poet-laureate -- I am not qualified for this, certainly, but it would be enriching to have one aboard

Aero-dancers (several) -- with requisite bikinirounds.




I am fully prepared to subject myself and sacrifice my comrades to the treacherous depths of the aqutic work place.
My CV consists of:
2-year pearl diving expedition off the coast of Japan
6 months in the NAVY's Man-in-the-Sea project spent in SEALAB II of the coast of La Jolla.
12-year membership of the Polar Bear Club in Coney Island
2nd Place to Houdini in Breath-Holding competition
1st Place underwater Rubic's cube competition
