Resumes

Forenoon watch, 3 bells (9:52 am)

Resumes are little stained-glass windows into peoples' lives. We've been advertising for an open position at work lately, and I filter resumes out to whomever should receive them (depends on department).

Why stained-glass windows and not normal windows, doors, or other miscellaneous wall openings? Because they distort the image behind them. Everybody knows that resumes are for making you look good, even when you're not. You don't see resumes with "I don't work well with other people" or "I like to take lots of sick time off when I'm not really sick" on them. I've seen resumes of all sorts, mostly serious, some are just plain jokes.

    this kid applied to my work the other day with "Cotton candy experience." i think i'm gonna hire that sticky fingered kid just to laugh at the way his eyes rotate after six months of staring at the amazing sugar-agitating machine.

    Haha! That's great. Maybe he can get his next job at a circus as a merry-go-round attendant. It comes with a bucket of sawdust..
