Ready to trade in your cubicle office space job for something different?
ENO Wine Room, which opened recently in Georgetown, at 2810 Pennsylvania Ave., has a job opening perfect for anyone who is passionate about their wine.
Here's the notice from Craigslist:
It's 5:30. You want a drink from someone who knows what they're doing and not shouting over a thumping bass or whispering along with a tinkling piano. Somewhere casual, grounded and guaranteed to crush the day's anxiety. You need wine.
ENO (www.enowinerooms.com) is passionate about wine; not the flowery language and overblown egos that surround it but the core of what makes wine great. We're after a bottle that begs to be passed and shared or a flight that lets you sample and be surprised. We think wine should be comfortable, friendly, and all about your taste -- if you like it, it's good.
Consider this an open-ended invitation to loosen up and have a great time.
