Now I did a job. I got nothing but trouble since I did it, not to mention more than a few unkind words as regard to my character so let me make this abundantly clear. I do the job. And then I get paid.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

I put education at the end.

the rules for length don't apply anymore-- but I tend to list skills/experience then a place of employment with titles / dates.

And that is where I would put book title and citations for awards/ reviews. I would include any online ones that might have proffessional merit.

If you are looking for an admin type job -- those skills should be emphasized. If you are looking for writing to be a part of a job -- put a link to recent blog post for cocktail party physics.

Even if your resume is 3 pages long -- clear -- skimmable are your goals.

good luck, Allyson.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

So far, my two leads are both, "she sounds awesome. I have no idea where we'd put her, but send me her resume."

So I'm a little blind in that both places are famous in either science or entertainment, and peeps high up on the food chain are accepting my resume from my more famous/well-known contacts.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

I have misplaced my digital camera, so for now there is a camera phone picture of my new hair: [link]

Wow, good time to catch up with the thread. You've finally achieved Matrix hair!

Shrift not only looks good, she also looks not unlike bon.

It is similar to bon's ultimate haircut.

Well, that's certainly promising!

Good luck, Allyson!

"What kind of magical sunshine and lollipop world do you live in? Because you need to be medicated."-SFist

So I got a notice today from Citibank saying my credit line was reduced to $100 (from $10000+). Is this a bankruptcy thing? Or an "I never use that card" thing?

I don't care since I never use that card; I was just keeping it as a safety until I pay off the student loan I put on my Chase card. But I can't afford getting something like this from Chase.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Megan, it's probably because you never use that card. I got something similar about a month ago from a card that I never use.

Cool. Not as cool as shrift's hair, but cool.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

You *are* frickin' awesome, Allyson, but yeah, it's easier to write a resume if you know what kind of job it's for.

Yeesh megan, good thing you don't use that one.
