Title: So someone mentioned to me the option of working full-time for a period of time on a very exciting project.  The cost benefits would simply yield supplementary income, nothing super spectacular, so not getting the gig doesn't immediately mean I'll be shit out of luck with money.<p>But then I saw the job post and it said "ROCK STAR Developer" and immediately I didn't want to work for this company.  I was asked why by a third party, and I explained how the whole cliche of calling people ninjas and rockstars is pointlessly chic, and trivializes what you want the person to do because their name "looks" hip and trendy.<p>And dear god I know one thing if I know anything: trendy fails to deliver.<p>Anyone else here have an opinion on the whole "rock star" job industry mentality?
