Wow, I only got part way through that description and I saw around 7 different positions being described. There's prepress, project manager, a CSR, a planner, inventory manager, purchasing agent, and a legal/regulation expert.

Hopefully they have budgeted enough to hire at least 4 people for that position.  :shoots_self:

Some one I know passed on a posted position like this to me except it listed 10-12 software apps that I never heard of and failed to google 3-4. AND wanted 1-2 years experience...

The job requirements translate to  "be responsible for everything and get paid next to notheing, you ungrateful peon...You should be thankful we choose to hire your ass..."

I just got offered to apply for the position to run the county print shop for Placer County. Longer hours, much longer commute, more pay, benefits up the wazoo. Should I do it, or keep my flexible schedule, low stress workload and 5 minute commute?

Find an ex employee to talk to if you can. You may be walking into a hellish situation. And how long did the last guy stay there? That might give you an idea.

Looks like the person in charge of hiring was the person in the position and was promoted. She was there a few years.

That's a good sign. Maybe it is actually as good as it looks. But only you know your situation thoroughly enough to decide.

I would also be wondering why the person that offered you up, did. I've got a long commute, there are good and bad with it. But I've been doing it most of my career, so I actually enjoy it most of the time.

10 mins for me, 12 if I'm unlucky enough to catch a red light or 2. Don't think I could handle a 30-45+ min drive both ways honestly.
