Actually, it’s proofed alright (i.e. error wise) but it’s more of being at issue stylistically for the job market and such. Not to mention I am thinking of crafting different types for the “type” of job that I may want to do…if different from what I’ve done in the past? But that is so headache inducing, you know? Also, since I am not really ready for the application process yet, it may have to wait until I start doing the searching.

However, some kind of “template” might be good to have if I want to make it “different?” And what I whipped up for now was more content oriented. That’s all I focussed upon.

So, yes. Design wise? Ick! I need to straighten that out. Definitely! I just did a quick and dirty. But I did realise today some missing content.

Shit.

I am going to have to do a lot of reviewing at “Fix Me Up,” that is for sure!

And my damn business cards! I’m working on that as well because–did I mention this? I think so in a “ranty, spastic, spew-it-all-out post.” Trying to come up with some “catchy, notice me” message as I have to delete certain fields from their templates as I am unemployed.

But a message that doesn’t make me sound like a total idiot. No cornball, cheese-muffin crap, right? Could you imagine something totally banal like: “Have a Nice Day!” or “It Was A Pleasure to Meet You!”

Good grief. Say goodbye to my professional future. *laughing*

I do kind of like the design I picked. And I’m going vertical, not horizontal. Everyone (well, the vast majority is horizontal?)

Oh! More crazy networking? Right beside “Fix Me Up” is a sister company/affiliate that is a search firm. I was making myself a tea and started chatting with a gentleman who worked there. I had to keep it brief as we were just on a short break from session. He was very friendly. The most friendly one I had met from the affiliate company to date (the coffee, tea and what not is in their kitchen; “Fix Me Up” doesn’t have one but the areas are all interconnected obviously.)

So, a bit about me and yes…when business cards ready, resume too…pass along to him. He gave me his card. I looked at it as I was walking away…

…he was the fucking VP of the company!!!

AHHHH!!!

I spoke to one of the coaches from “Fix Me Up” and she said oh, he’s great…sure…you should definitely talk to him.

Again, I’ve got to get my silly business cards. It is so true how things have changed. It really is about networking. Or so I am finding? I think?

Hi darkentries. Oh, you make me laugh (like a lot of the time?) Not that I am laughing at your mentalness. However, as I always say, we need to try and do that from time to time? Relieve the pressure?

“Distortotron.” We’re getting all sci-fi with this. Which is fine in my books! I called myself a Borg. You’re now sounding like a robot?

OMG. In my last post (although I was being very serious) I made a reference to Troy from Star Trek: TNG!

Perhaps with me getting all stressed and “Distorted,” I need to get in my “Escape Pod” and fly back to Vulcan for a bit. Not right now though–especially not right now. I’ve been trying to whip through a) my post and b) these comments, as I have got to finish my resume draft BY TONIGHT!

There Gabriel…. Some block caps for you. Hehe.

It’s really deadlined by tomorrow night, I suppose but that would be me just stretching my procrastination. It would also translate it into a DEADline.

It’s killing me. No, it is. Remember when I was talking about trying to put my Writer’s Bio (being unpublished) together? Ah, piece of cake! My resume? It is FUBAR. Or beyond, the beyond if that is possible.

However, in a “true writer’s style” (not that I am…ahem…a writer), I’ll betcha I’ll DEADline it.

Shit.

I can’t vouch for the book, however. We were just given a couple of pages so you might want to check it out beforehand and see if it might be a good fit for you. I only like to get into discussing “full volumes” if I’ve read them and then I can say how they have impacted me and what I found most useful, interesting etc… And believe me! That is rare these days! I haven’t finished a book in…

Well, I absconded with a few from hospital and I did manage to actually finish one in a few months. It was so difficult, though. It was also fiction so another point against. PA is a non-fiction reader unless the story can really captivate her or for whatever reason (author?) she is determined to read it.

Ah, stability…failure… Well, I do know that I am not perfect. That is for sure! I suppose I just don’t want to be…wow…

I can think of so many words, places, things. Probably best just not to think of them at all!

PA, the unknown is scary, and when we are always trying to do things in the “shoulds” i.e., the perfectionist, it is scary because we think we’re going to fail, so why bother.

I wish I had stability, too. Right now the most stable things in my life are this computer keyboard, and a chocolate bar. ;-)
