The Job Hunting Trenches

In a job description on Monster.com:

Our company is a based in Wilmington, Delaware, a vibrant, growing city located midway between New York and Washington and just two hours from the shores of the Atlantic Ocean.

The only words I've changed are the first two.

1--I'm sorry, I must be confused...that, or those folks are smoking some great weed and not sharing. As a whole, from what I've seen, Wilmington is a toilet.

2--Poor sentence construction. We're all guilty of it at times, but come on! This is an advertisement of your company...would you be willing to hire me as an editor/proofreader?
