I'm thinking eventually something is going to pop up on craigslist, monster, or career builder, my job is driving me nuts.

I work with this old guy that probably hasn't taken a shower since the 80's and has worn the same pants, flannel, and hat since he was moved to my shift last october...it smells so bad I've thrown up in my mouth a few times. I come home and scrub myself everyday thinking his smell is sticking with me.

I should take a picture of him when I'm back at work. He looks like a bum that somehow found his way into a data center

You changed your name! Give me a call sometime Brian. We can revise your resume to show you can do help desk work and I will once again try like hell to get you in at my company. There is now a new supervisor over at the help desk plus 3 ppl have quit in the past few weeks.

I am going to clay bar, wash and wax my car today so if it rains I will be livid, lol.

Yeah I got way bored, changed my aim and yahoo to brian08xb also.
I even logged into myspace for the first time in months today.

I keep seeing Reed Smith IT jobs coming up on craigslist. The requirements for the jobs are crazy for the job title, but most IT job postings seem to be written by some HR person that's clueless.

My resume sucks, I keep adding to it, but I dunno it's just missing something. My job title and what I don't match and it's really killing me. I've even asked to get a realistic title without a raise for that position and they still said no. I'm half tempted to just change my title on my resume to what I really do, but then they'll eventually call and find out what my title really is.

I've been thinking about just writing every odd thing that happens everyday and making it into a book and somehow not get sued for writing it.

Thats really what you should do. I don't think its considered lying and it makes your resume more attractive to employers. Are you coming to the show tonight?

I might, my car is so dirty and the polished lip on my wheels is all pitted and needs to be repolished. I've always run aftermarket wheels in the winter and never had a problem until I got those Motegi's, glad they were only $300 with tires. I might just sand them down and spray them bronze or gold or put them on the xD since they weigh a ton and are wide so it kills my mpg by 3-4mpg.

Where I work the big problem is everyone has the same title except management and a few other people in high up non-management roles.
