Posting Resumes Online

When I’m looking for employment I know that I get very tired of registering for the dozens of job-search services, having to spend hours filling in their forms, over and over again, repeating the same stuff. I wish that we could just copy and paste it when we post your resume online! Bust most of them won’t allow that, so we have to print off a copy of our resumes and piece-meal it in. So if you get a chance you should check out what sideskills.com and see what they can do for you, I’ve heard good things about them from several folks that are job hunting.

I think and feel like it is a huge waste of time for many of these places because even though they promise they will give us “job opportunities” within an hour’s drive (or what ever length of time you put it) of where we live, after spend hing ours filling in their forms – sometimes the best they can give us these days is working at 7-11 midnight shifts. Very aggravating! What a waste of a perfectly good college degree. There just doesn’t seem to be a light at the end of this very long dark tunnel that our government has placed us in these past few years.

Junky Basement

I have been spending a bit of time down in my basement. It is in desperate need of a reorganization and a good cleaning. I really haven’t much to do with the basement, it has always been used for storage and now that I see that most of the stuff can be given away and what doesn’t get thrown away will go towards a yard sale, some time in September when it isn’t so hot outside, which makes a big difference in my attitude during a long day of dealing with the general public.

It is amazing how much junk people can accumulate, and to think that so many folks are paying a monthly storage fee in order to hold on to all. I can’t imagine paying some one to provide me with a place to store my junk, those monthly bills add it to a good amount of money and most of the stuff that is being stored isn’t worth it, in most cases anyway.

There really isn’t many things in life better than a good cigar. I was never into smoking cigarettes, but a good cigar and a cold beer in front of my big screen TV with a football game on is about as close to heaven as I’ll ever get, I imagine. So I am always on the look out for cheap cao cigars, looks like I found a great deal at www.famous-smoke.com and have placed an order, hope I get them before the Super Bowl gets here!

 

Control Freak

Do you know someone like this? There are a few in my family and it drives me nuts. However, I was recently a guest at a large family gathering of people I don’t know very well, and this pattern was very obvious in the family dynamics there, too.

This person has to be in charge. He or she is always the one who brings up things that need to be done and sets about either doing themselves for ample pats on the back and credit, or they set about designating duties or assignments to others. Often this person will make a major decision or purchase and then approach the group with expectations of being repaid. They also expect the rest of the group to accept the decisions without question – just do as you’re told.

Often the others in the family go along with the control freak just to keep the peace. But to their credit, sometimes they do tackle unpleasant jobs that no one else wants to do.

Nagging Toothache

I have been having some trouble lately with a back tooth that has been giving me a good deal of grief as of late. I was hoping that it would just go away, sometimes a toothache has been known to go away without any type of treatment done to it. But this one doesn’t seem to want to ease up one bit.

It was hurting so bad this morning that I actually called the dentist that I haven’t seen in some time, and scheduled an appointment for tomorrow at 3:30pm. I was told that since I had not been there in some time that I should plan on arriving a bit early and to be prepared to fill out all new paperwork on myself.

I don’t know which one I’m dreading worse, the dentist or the paperwork.
