I'm less cynical than others here. They probably just wanted a job ad title that a) sticks out b) gets your attention by making you reflect on your own personality and c) entice you to click through to the ad and see what kind of jobs "gritty people" applying for.
- thuuuomas 4y agoSure, but how are you less cynical than others here?
- missedthecue 4y agoAs I write this comment almost everyone else in the thread is interpreting it to mean some variation of an abusive workplace environment. The guy you responded to is being more charitable and less cynical than that.
- lapcat 4y agoI think it's actually more cynical than the other comments, because in the case of abusive workplace environments, asking for "gritty" employees is a fairly honest thing to do, and gives a decent indication of what the company is like. Whereas the commenter here was suggesting that the term "gritty" is a nothing more than a meaningless attention getter, and thus totally insincere.
- erklik 4y agoHoping we're talking about the right "They" ... Why is "people" capitalized? Regardless, I feel like that's a little too optimistic.
