Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Yeah, it's a real resume. Of course the gawker network thought it's just a sign of corporate deadness that he might not get hired, but damn! How does a recruiter handle that person? That resume? How does that get scanned and filed? I guess if you want to go in the special pile, but does your industry normally hire out of that?

For every "but we're allowed to emboss pokemons on our head and we do just fine!" there are so many people who, you know, might never get a job if they can't print a resume in a couple columns, monochrome, maybe Verdana, and no animals drawn on their face.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

the average company who has a lot of applications for jobs are looking for excuses not to interview or hire.

If that's his resume, I think I would pay folding $$ to see his cover letter.

The artist formerly associated with cupcakes.

Wow. That is ... quite the resume. And I say this as someone who has "freelance bio-exorcist" listed at the very end of mine.

Go offroad. Can you visit the observatories?

I'll have to look into it. Thanks for the suggestion!

Right now I'm trying a Big Swell IPA from Maui Brewing Co. and trying to stay awake long enough for us to plan what we're doing tomorrow.

Because books.

Oh my god. I know someone who graduated Middlebury in 2012 -- I should ask her if she knows him.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

That resume makes me laugh really hard, and I can't imagine who would hire him.

I would totally hire him just because it made me laugh, but I hire student workers!

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Well, a company that would hire him off of that is probably one he'd be very happy at.

That's one way to do it, anyway. I'm reminded of my friend Ian, who had a very large iguana that he'd take for walks. He said that it was a chick-magnet -- at least for the type of women he would be interested in.

Note that Mr. Redmon is already accepted for a PhD program this fall so he can afford to be as wacky as he wants for now.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

That's...quite a resume.

Meanwhile, I have to keep reminding myself that I cannot spend the whole day in my pajamas, sitting in front of the computer. Sigh.
