There was a resume' that I posted, but it didn't help me get any fish. I got only a couple of bites. So, what do I do now? I re-baited. I worked on my resume' again, and though similar, it's different and doesn't yet smell fishy.
Uploading it to Monster was stupid. Fill out duplicate forms each and every time. What a complete waste of my time as well as having to "No Thanks" at sign in and each time I change anything. I don't want to join the military, National Guard, get mortgage quotes or take classes from Phoenix Arizona. For all the advertising I endure, I have gotten squat. There are jobs in Utah it shows me, though I selected quite different states.
Anyway, I had an email address for ten some years or more and I must now rely on my learning skills to remember my less flamboyant email address that is more common and relevant to who I am. The other one -- vocationally-based, is no longer important as I have changed vocations. Though never working in food industry, it was like a change from burgerfryer @ isp.com to iamsomebodyspecial @ commonisp.org. I don't like parades, but here I am the whistle-blowing beater; directly involved in the masquarade. It's not a total sham, but it is a shame. It's putting on duck feathers, goose down, stork legs, painted in flamingo pink, with a pelican beak and throat, singing the songs of fifty species of song birds. I'm real -- better than any soft goose, unconventional flamingo, conforming duck, taller than the others, more talented than fifty others. No one is in my calibur and I am peerless. Sadly, that's what HR wants to read and hear. It can't be true. Its the story of the Fishman and His Wife. The moral: all greed brings you to ruin. In a sense, my resume' is an infommercial, full of half-facts, hackneyed demonstrations and glorified garage sale pieces. I capable, but with a million others, I cannot stand out. If I spend a thousand dollars on resume' helpers or head hunters, would I get a $25K or $55K job? I suspect they wouldn't care after they got their money.
I'd have to say, this business stinks!
