Well for these jobs the only thing you would need to know in office is how to open a document someone else sent for the most part. Right now if someone with good qualifications didn't know anything about office they would hire an assistant to do all that for him/her. My 11:00 interview...

You just have to know what to ask. At least in the south the better parts of town go with the better schools. They have code words. Like less than desirable school. Tough resell market due to the school here. Etc... I bought my parents a house 6 years ago and the agent was not shy about which...

I can't imagine doing that nowdays and what would be involved on the legal end.

I really don't know what you would need to pick up that weighs 5 pounds anyway. I change out the rolls for the plotter if runs out while I'm using it. But we could get someone else to do it lol. If we plot out an entire job at once it can weigh a good bit, but since I fired the IT guy that...

HR lady just forwarded me some more resumes for my replacement to go thru. I still look at resumes of people with college degrees, multiple years or decades of professional experience where they put stuff under skills like Microsoft word. I know I have a really long resume but you really need to...

I put a lot because most of the people I talk to where I have interviewed, competitors, and when I owned my own business it's very difficult to find people/attract people now. Very difficult. There's just not a very large pool nationwide to draw from and very few skills cross over. The...

Sorry I've been wordy. Bored as shit here at work. The 28th is my last day so I won't be posting from work any longer.

No. His dad died of cancer while he was in the Navy. I offered him a job because he's reasonabley smart and needed a job. We pretty much went our separate ways. He once asked me and then my dad if we would sign his deal that he was looking for a job while on unemployment. Kind of went downhill...

Lol my real meal yesterday was a $6 po-boy while I ate breakfast at McDonalds, afternoon snack at Burger King, and a later dinner at whataburger. I had just never heard of gogurt. I eat yoplait light yogurt a lot. I'm having an ultra fancy meal for diner tonight. A banquet frozen pot pie...

This is related to the site for cheaters ain't it that got hacked and relased their info this week ain't it?

I talk about projects I have been involved in. I list precipitators, bag houses, carbon capture projects, furnaces, stacks, large duct work up to 21' in diamter, pressure vessels, platforms and give a typical customer and location for each example. Like say "Worked as project manager at the...

Friend of mine does hiring and nurse training for the largest employer in the state which is a university medical hospital. He said way too many people got into nursing with no aptitude for it, but they knew they could get a job regardless if they were good at it. He's listed as upper management...

Have your people contact my people and they will hammer at the details and set up a time after my legal team has had time to go over it.

LOL. I uninstalled World of Warships and part of the unistall process is a questionaire that's 2 pages long about why you are uninstaling.

I had to google that.

His wife filed for divorce.

I'm real cautious about those types of systems. Maybe 10-12 years ago I sent my resume to a recruiter, I should have sent a PDF but they would only take a word upload. I got a call from someone asking me when I went back and got X degree. I didn't. Recruiter changed my resume and like a dumb ass...

I had to put it on my well for iron in the water. You washed clothes and dried them and your towels could stand up straight.

I'm in the opposite camp. I see LOTS of one page resumes that I wonder what they actually did at the end of them. Everyone throws titles around now days I want to know what you actually did. I look for listing what you actually were responsible for at each job/posistion. I will also look at...

16 hour road trip yesterday. I think I'm done with fast food for the next month lol. At least in the middle of it I got to squeeze in a decent meal.

I have a 3 page resume, and a 3 page cover letter. It works tho, I don't even put education on it. Best possible outcome on new job lead is no requirement for a resume lol. I could go the rest of my career without looking at more of them. That's the downside of being on an "island" so to...

It's amazing the number of resumes I get that have a glaring spelling error in job titles, the industry they worked in and stuff like that. Plus the number of ones that have a phone number with an extra digit in it and stuff like that. Not even talking just a regular spelling error in a...

Wrong state. This is what it looks like at the right time of year.

There's a thread here on it. I played for about a week and a half. Didn't do anything for me. Too slow, no ignore feature yet, multiple TK's per game with no penalty even 1 minute in. The ranked battles that went up on test for 2 days looks like it might eventually have promist, you get...

Bad week for anything "bat" related I guess. TV's Batgirl Yvonne Craig Dies at 78 Let's hope it doesn't go in 3's. I live on Bat Cave Rd.

Supposed to have gone some time this month. Good thing I weasled out of it I guess after what happened earlier in the week.

I have windows 7 and windows 10 on a separate SSD's and can boot to whichever. Since I did that I still get the "option" on the windows 7 boot to upgrade to 10. If I run windows updates you can't select any important or optional upgrades to install without picking the windows 10 update. Not a...

I guess I'm out. I've been up for about 30 hours and have to work 9 hours after 4 hours of sleep so probably will sleep for 2 days afterwards.

You can get power tools not made in China if you want to spend money. Most of the job sites we work have it in their contract that if you don't buy made in the USA tools you have to submit where you looked etc...to get a waiver. But sometimes the prices you pay you could buy 50 of another name...

Here in the hill country of TX they are huge. You never see a house advertised for sale without one and they take up about 20% of radio advertising. The only one I have dealt with was on a well pump system and I really don't know how much it was, rolled into a new well and pump. It used 50lb...

I looked in January '14 and looked in 3 different states and I had a hard time finding some in stock and prices were outrages I thought. Everyone had the same deal, new regulations required that went into effect that month. Maybe they have had time to catch up or they rescended the regulation...

2:30 AM and I just got back in town from an emergency job interview. My dad was reading craigslist (I didn't know he knew what that was) and saw an ad for someone to make shop drawings for plate work. So my dad drives there and puts his own hat in the ring for contract work. They talk and...

It's a FSA move and there's a few pages here of people commenting on it. I didn't get to where I am by dicking people or companies out of their shit. She hasn't done shit with her/him/it life and comments on shit as if she were a CEO of a fortune 500 company and has no real life experiences...

I read an article over the weekend that the movie producer (no clue which one) was going to reimburse theaters for added security for the showings.

Wait till you price out new ones that have had a sudden 100% increase due to some government regulation. I think the bottom of the barrel quality ones now start at $1,000 to $1,2000 and go up from there.

Got a call last night from the Lt. Governor of a state I no longer live in. Was kind of pumped. Found out today my niece told me he also called her friend that was trying to win some deal on TV as a chef. Oh well. 2 things I learned talk to a career politican, which I never do. 1...

Bitch in one thread about miniumum wage and the government should subsidize companies to pay more. Pull shady shit like this. FSA all the way. You're part of it. for those that don't know FSA

You're worth what someone is willing to pay. They would pay you less if it wasn't against the law. Let that sink for a few.

I guess it varies by industry. It's good for a laugh from the HR lady before she gives them to me and I chunk them. Not to mention if a minority sent in a resume with a picture on it I can't imagine the shit that could ensue later for throwing it away immediately. It kind of goes with saying...

What do you need the photos for? Everyone will me I'm crazy, but I've never sent a resume in the last 20+ years that didn't get a call back on. That includes ones out of my area of specialization and in regions of the country that don't even have petro chemical where I thought I might like to...
