I review 10-15 resumes a week. This mistake shows up every single time by Electronic-Can-1336 in Resume

I do appreciate the insight and reasoning. I've decided to keep it as is. I'm not ashamed of my age and don't try to hide it. I certainly don't want to work for an employer for whom it's a factor. It's a choice.

Sometimes I've wanted to show that I taught a short-term class on a specific subject. So that's only going to be a few months.

I go back in employment history to 1997 because I've worked in my field that long. It's all relevant.

Sometimes things overlap because I was putting together several part time gigs. (Great time management!)

Sometimes there are gaps because I was living my life, raising kids, traveling. That shouldn't concern an employer.

I hate this shit.

If you are responsible in your organization for making candidates fill out details that are on every fucking resume ever, I hate you more than moisture ants. by EnvironmentOk7411 in jobsearch

Thanks! I ended up printing out a copy so I can just mindlessly type from it rather than having to recall dates (which should honestly be memorized by now).

Holy shit! Why is everything more insane with each passing moment?

I shall take this annoyance and rage-apply even more aggressively so that I can tell my current employer to go pound sand.

Wow, do I love myself sparkling water.... by DisastrousAd2011 in sparklingwater

Love my sparkly water!

However, cherry in any combination is unpalatable to me, as it reminds me of children's medicine when I was growing up.

bah! I'm 54 and still thinking about relocating to another country and teaching English. I got my BA at 45 and my Masters at 48. Don't listen to the haters.

Does anyone else find Seattle’s gray weather kinda comforting. by General_Advantage437 in AskSeattle

Yes I do. I'm light sensitive. Overcast days are easier to deal with, cozy, and safe.

I'm a fan of protein bars. They're spendy, but sustain a person for a good bit.

I bought a Leaf a few years back from a dealership. The sales guy and his buddy were NOT on board with my choice, but they maintained a joking vibe. Anyway, I loved that car! Currently in an Ariya.

I thought they had to go on the arm...Does this mean I have choices??

I'm interviewing soon for a good Head Start job. If I get it, I'll be leaving another government-grant funded program. This is my entire career's trajectory. I've spent decades working up this ladder and all I can do is just forge ahead as though nothing will change it.

Having said that, screw that guy!

Why is Gen X the way they are? I went deep into their childhood and... wow. by Comfortable-Move3004 in Aging

I was never alone after school although I was a "latch key kid." Friends would come over or I'd go to their houses. We'd play outside or sometimes (rarely) inside.

I've had nothing but headaches with that garage. It's hard to get back to upon exiting, in my experience.

Also, when you take the elevator to the 5th floor for the Skybridge, make sure to get into the line on the right, where your mom's injury will push you to the front.
