EEO Job - anyone?

On the McHenry County website is a job posting for "Equal Employment Opportunity Officer - Sheriff's Department." Anyone interested?

Is Kathleen Seith retiring? Quitting? or is MCSD hiring a second EEO officer?

Read the first line in the Summary of Job, just below. Now imagine yourself in this position. Imagine that the sheriff is about to violate equal opportunity laws, so you march in and say, "Keith, you can't do that." You had better keep your resume up-to-date!

Then read down to Desired Education and/or Experience: Juris Doctorate preferred.

And compensation is "D.O.Q." (depending on qualifications). So the sheriff wants to hire a lawyer to work with his outside law firm? What lawyer would take that job, if he had good reason to believe that the sheriff had violated termination policies and laws regarding past employees?

And the OSHA (it's all caps, folks) warning? Should the new EEO officer wear PPEs all day at work, to protect herself from the environment?

From the County's website, Employment tab:
