steve,

The difference is fine.  What mdee did was not to post a job
offering (which IS what this net is for.) but s/he posted an
ad for an employment service.  Not a JOB per se but a SERVICE.
Today I had a mdee job listing come over.  A concrete job.
No problem (if it isn't a come on:  $60k for a LISP hacker--
REALLY!!)  If posters stick to jobs not services (which is what
we have phone books and newspapers for :-) ) this net can 
remain useful to persons like myself seeking a job not a B....
