Working for DAJPL

DAJPL Online Career Center

Welcome to the Family - How We Work

At DAJPL your coleagues are more than just co-workers, they are your family. In adverse situations the world over, from a firey rocketry inferno in the UK to having to shoot the maid for serving luke-warm tea on tour in Scotland you and your DAJPL brothers and sisters will bond.

DAJPL takes team-building to the next level; if any one member of the team makes a mistake, there is usually no time for recrimination; the entire team burn in a hellish inferno. What doesn't kill you makes you stronger; shared risk makes the team bond. Living every minute of your life in the certain knowledge that one of a 100 things from a Short Circuit to the Bisop of NASRA having a Holy Sighting and demanding the rocket fired whilst you are still working on it not only makes you grow stronger as a person but bonds the DAJPL machine even closer. With traditional plucky DAJPL spirit "We'd better do it or they'll shoot us", our teams will pull through.

Enough of the benefits - what are the pit falls of such wonderous employment? Simple answer is - none.

Although in 'normal' employment working a 23 hour day 7 days a week 365.25 days a year for psychopathic managers in extremely dangerous conditions knowing that the life expectency of the average draftee was 4 weeks and 1 day and that after the post-draft grueling 4 week training programme you would have nothing to look forward to but a painful death would get you down - dispair not! At DAJPL we serve the Holy Cause of Rocketry serving NASRA in Stavros' devine works in any little way we can (in line with the NASRA Chapel).

The technical roles at DAJPL involve working with the cutting-edge of NASRA technology. DAJPL have been instrumental at all stages of all NASRA development for the last 2 years culminating in our Gagarin project. DAJPL are heavily involved in the Crimson Dawn project. Even if you do not have a technical role and are merely a cleaner or standby manual ignition officer you will be working for the glory of NASRA.
