Resume Joke of the Day
-
Ever since the Search Engine Optimizer resume, I became famous in my neighbourhood for writing resumes :-D Also it motivated me to rewrite my own resume(It was not more than a bio-data) when I searched for some tips on Resume writing, I stumbled upon this funny section, which are reportedly taken from real resumes and cover letters: # Exposure to German for two years, but many words are not appropriate for business. # I have become completely paranoid, trusting completely nothing and absolutely no one. # My goal is to be a meteorologist. But since I possess no training in meteorology, I suppose I should try stock brokerage. # I procrastinate - especially when the task is unpleasant. # Reason for leaving last job: They insisted that all employees get to work by 8:45 am every morning. I couldn't work under those conditions

I have interviewed someone who felt that way, and we have fired someone because of similar issues taken to the severe. As bizarre as that statement reads, I've run into it twice, and on a 3rd case an employee had problems with this, but straightened up.

That sounds reasonable to me. I don't have to show up to work until 10 or 10:30. ;P

I've always been a late person, doing well if I can get to sleep by midnight so even when I have been at a place with fixed shifts I was allowed to do flexitime. Elaine (laggardly fluffy tigress)

so are we... but you have to at least put in your hours and show up for important presentations.... sleeping until 3pm and working for 2 hours just doesn't cut it. :)
