Winner!!!

Ok this post is perhaps a little mean, but humorous.  This was a resume that I had recieved for a job posting.  This is a prime example of...a resume that could use some improvement.  Let me paint the picture of how this was delivered first of all because the whole experience was a sight to see.  I was doing my thing at work up at the front and I could see a gentleman strolling up confidently with a stack of papers in hand.  Right off the bat I could tell that he either had a resume or some sort of flyer for a high school play or something.  He must of been in his late twenties or early thirties.  Baggy jeans, worn out tennis shoes, white loose t-shirt, and some sort of vest/sweater?  It was a button up vest but made of some sort of cloth.  Oh, and a newsie hat and big headphones.  He came right up to me and asked if we were hiring.  I said that we were and he elegantly handed the resume to me.  I said thanks, he then nodded, which was a sort of bow, and then he strolled back out of the store.  To top this all off he slipped his headphones back over his ears and played air drums on his way out of the store.  This drum solo continued all the way to his car.

Here is the resume, read this and we'll talk about this:

So here we are.  Lets discuss this little gem for just a second.  Aside from the fantastic grammar.  This is quite the read.  I like how hiring this chap is a compromise, "Let's help each other out."
With his first employment reference he designed and manufactured solenoidds.  He did that for them.  He was fired.  They did that for him.
Draw in charcoal?
Compose electronic music?
DOESN'T SMOKE!?!
Well, maybe if he took up smoking the composing and drawing in charcoal would be more successful.  I can't imagine that most electronic musician composers find creativity being sober. 
He even worked at K-Mart.  Wow.  Hired.  He even worked at K-Mart.  High school grad plus a few college classes probably mostly consisting of technical theatre, I'm guessing in his early twenties???  So, yeah, pretty motivated.  Obviously.

You know what.  We should get together and talk about our futures.  It's too bad he doesn't smoke, that's when most people get together and talk about their futures air drumming, drawing in charcoal, and composing electronic music.

I hope you enjoyed this.  Thank you for taking the time to read this blog.  We should get together and talk about our future.  Let's help each other out.
