Countrywide Needs Some Help – Duh!

Anyone know what happened to the incumbents? I would take the job. If they gave me a very hefty signing bonus. And relocation to California, first class airfare, bounce back clause,  a cheap mortgage with no doc and no money down…  And two years severance for every month served if they change their mind, are bought out, go bankrupt, decide they don’t like me, can’t take the heat, won’t let me wear stilettos or cheer for the White Sox…No job is too risky if they pay you enough under a good contract.
