It's too early to add chocolate vodka to my coffee, right? Even if it looks like Vlad headbutted my arm at the wrong moment, and a file directory may have accidentally been deleted from my repository?
Fred: So you don't worry that it's possible for someone to send out a biological or electronic trigger that effectively overrides your own sense of ideals and values and replaces them with an alternative coercive agenda that reduces you to a mindless meat puppet? Shopkeeper: Wow. People used to think that I was paranoid.

Jesus, I have had two meetings today for this damn "fun" pumpkin carving contest. Not building my morale at the moment.

I was just told there's another job opening in QA in my office, the head of the department just tapped me on the shoulder to let me know. I'm looking at the online resume thing, and it's asking for Summary, Objective, and Specific Skills area. Is the Summary a general listing of my skills, and specific skills tailored to the job?

Not by my clock. Delete often is not really delete.
eta: Is there anyone you know in HR that could clarify for you, Connie?

Not at this hour. I poked around the explanatory section and found some guidance. Now I need to track down my resume and get dates for old jobs. It's been years since I've filled out one of these, it's nervewracking.

In addition to the awesome Cosmo news, the kitty I picked up last night, thinking it was Cosmo turned out to indeed have a microchip and CosmoNot (who is really Bella) is happily reunited with HER owner, a nice lady who was very happy to see HER kitty.
I feel like I've been smoking the world's most excellent happy weed all day long. I'm so blissed out.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Is the Summary a general listing of my skills, and specific skills tailored to the job?
I'd do more of a paragraph in Summary ("a seasoned XX professional with background in ABC kinds of things") and more bullets in Specific Skills.

Jesse's right about the resume, Connie.
Wow, Laurie Holden! That's pretty fucking awesome!

Is it still resume fashion to do things in sentence fragments "seasoned technical support professional", or is it "I am a seasoned technical support professional"? Stupid, changeable, possibly-career-gutting nitpicky details.
