Thank you to those who offered to help with my resume. I think its lovely now and will actually hightlight my skillzes, if you know what I’m sayin sayin. Hopefully I will have an e-mail or voicemail or some sort of electronic notification that someone in this legal world thinks I’m as awesome as I think I am. Or, I’ll just be here in front of my computer in my apartment at noon with nothing to do, running through my savings like. . . like. . . like a person who has no job would run through their savings.
I have many resumes printed out with specialized cover letters. They are ready to go. The problem? I have no envelopes. Not having envelopes has brought my job seeking to a sudden halt. The real issue is the fact that I’ve printed my resume on a certain type of paper, and now I can’t find the same kind of envelope. So all of my achievements are sitting on our counter and no one will know why they should hire me because I am lacking a piece of paper that has been glued on three out of four sides and has a triangular flap on the top. It is the root of my unemployment. Perhaps, really, when you think about it, its not that there are no jobs that have been causing our very high unemployment rate. Maybe its not that the Bush administration hasn’t been creating enough jobs to meet the demand, but because all of these people have their resume printed on a certain type of paper and now can’t find envelopes to match.
Hmmmm. . . .
