Pho-dough Copying Resumes

Applications, applications everywhere!  I have been looking all over for fresh employment!  Unfortunately, most companies fail to recognize that A.) I won Time Magazine's person of the year in 2006* (a fact I proudly  include on my resume) and that B.) Supreme Lord Commander, Donut Operations is a perfectly legitimate and neigh unmatchable job title.

Don't judge me, bro! We've all worked our resume's a bit.  I know how the game works.  Janitor becomes 'Refuse Management Disposal Engineer.'  Job descriptions can be easily improved.  For example, I once sent an email to Venice - solid gold there: 'Interoffice digital communication management duties...' goes right on the resume, just under 'Playboy' and above 'Chief of Moonbase Operations.'  I wish I had expanded my moonbase operations, limiting myself to only one extra-planetary endeavor was a mistake.  I should have at least included Utah.  Utah counts.

I guess the real secret to a good resume is figuring out what you really did, explaining that in such a way that, for example, photocopying a picture of a puppy is written as 'Digital to electrochemical information relay transfer, transmission, and database dissemination,' and then, figuring out what your new employer needs and explaining, sort of, that you did it all the time.  "Sure - you need a Technology Manager, and I manage to use my iPhone every day.  Except the calculator bit. I could never figure that one out."

Anyway, as I continue to pimp myself out to the highest bidder as a Intercontinental Ballistic Breakfast Executive, I realized something important: I may not have bagels and doughnuts to give anymore, but I do have a cupboard full of an inexhaustible supply of happiness - and you're welcome to take as many handfuls as you need to get through these tough times!

Star Wars Celebration Orlando 2017, or What It's Like When a Nerd Takes Acid

Image
I went to Star Wars Celebration, and I feel the need to tell you about it and provide you with an honest, clear review of this event. You have been warned. Firstly, are you a fan of Star Wars ? I don't mean "Yes, I saw some of those. They were good." I'm not referring to the people who have seen each and every single film, some more than once. I'm not even talking to people who have a plush taun-taun, or that 'one really rad shirt from the first film in Japanese.' If you are one of these people, congratulations, you are well adjusted, have a strong appreciation for a culturally significant movie, and probably go to therapy for other reasons. Also, if you're a casual fan and live nearby, sure, give it a shot, maybe take a day trip to check some stuff out. If you wake up every morning in Star Wars sheets and eat Kellogg's C-3PO's  from a vintage 1997 Special Edition Re-Release Box with a light up lightsaber spork, DO I H...

TESLA REVIEW PART II: THE ELECTRIC BOOGALOO

Image
PART I: THE BASICS Now we're on to the ACTUAL REVIEW! What's it like to drive a Tesla, for the average joe? I'm not a man who drives a BMW 3 series, or a Mercedes, or an Audi. Or a Lexus. Or an Acura. I don't have the latest Mazda 6 series. I have a FIFTEEN YEAR OLD Honda Accord. I imagine a large number of Tesla drivers will be coming from a similar experience - so I want to share what it's like moving from a car to an electric-powered rocket with wheels, airbags, and the most advanced cupholders I've ever seen. Here's the car. It's smaller than I thought, has no power, and I can't get the trunk open. A model Model 3. If I paid it to wear clothes, It would be a model model Model 3. As for the ACTUAL car: First, you gotta get INTO the thing. You walk up to it with cellphone in pocket, push in on a block bit which pops the handle out, pull the handle, and climb in. So far, I've noticed that this works 95% of the time. 5% of the time...

Breaking the Fast

     As the days pass by, one after the other, it becomes increasingly difficult to do basic things like wake up, shower, dress, pay bills, and maintain consciousness for more than sixty minutes at a time.   After a while, your log begins to look something like this: "Day 51 - The beer supply is dwindling and we've run out of twinkies.  Beard length has reached dangerous proportions.  Sandwiches and morale have both reached critically low levels. We may have to eat the dog."    Many of us have been there, distraught, seemingly without hope, wondering if, as time went by, you could easily determine which of your pets would be the least tough and stringy.  But lets not discuss pets. Lets talk about YOU.  What have you been doing to stay on track?  You're learning how to work in adverse environments right now.  Especially if you've EVER, even ONCE attempted to navigate the abysmal unemployment website. It truly is terr...
