thank you all for the kind words, I do think this guy is a tool, but I also need to be aware of how at least some local HR people see things. I will be adding an "Objective" sentence to the top of the resume to make it clear that I am looking for an administrative support position. I think I will also move my skills section up to highlight the proficiencies in technologies. I may add in teeny tiny font somewhere "hire me or I will cut you".

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
That should be more subliminal, msbelle. Like a watermark.
As someone who grew up in "dive bars & serial killers" land, I can confirm that there isn't a shortage of either.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

I, too, am confused.

Or Papyrus.
(The font, that is. I think a resume on real papyrus would be keen.)

msbelle, sounds like he's an asshat, but that you are taking away ways to deal with asshattery?
I am currently working off of 4 laptops at the same time. This is a record for me.
My laptop has a hate-hate relationship with my LCD projector at school, making it not a good candidate for workage. So I am using another laptop so mine can go to the nice repair people. The other one has a newer OS (booo) and none of my crap. So I'm firewiring stuff to it. Except I can't get either laptops to work as a target so I'm firewiring stuff through my older home laptop.
First world issue, yes?
I also just agreed to 3-times a week OT for the month of May. Which means Grace's nurse will be taking Grace to 3-times a week OT for that month.

an overblown libretto and a sumptuous score/ could never contain the contradictions I adore
I found a Renn Faire bodice at the thrift store today. I know the brand-- I have one already, actually-- and it retails for $140. It was discount day, so I didn't even spend the $25 it was marked as. Behold my thrifting, for it is fearsome.

Oh, I know there's a bunch of Pride & Prejudice lovers on here, and Bas Bleu has a lovely P&P t-shirt: [link]

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
There is no way msbelle's resume is not the nicest of them all, and I declare the friend of a friend a stinkbutt.
