Job Hunting

So, here's a dude that can't get a job. After reading his ad, one stops wondering why. Seriously, I'd like to see this guy in an interview.

The link (Craigslist).

The text, for posterity:

If he had mentioned anything about programming or database administering I'd probably give him a phone screen. I have an appreciation for the coarse usually lacking in hiring managers. His "resume" wouldn't make it past HR though.

I dunno. Coarse language aside, there's nothing there that convinces me he actually capable of anything besides coarse language. Whole lotta arrogance wrapped up in that one...maybe that's why it grates. Takes one to know one, and all that.

I would be pickier if I had had better luck convincing my friends to come out this way when I had jobs to offer. :(

Besides I've always wanted to meet the inventor of the moon ... and the blowjob machine. Who knew they were one and the same?

He's in Chicago. That makes sense.

What, no one has snapped this gem up? Unbelievable.

He's 20 years old, so he's one of those punk kids that thinks the world OWES him something like a job. (See the Atlantis reference above for his age.)

I was so wrapped up in the imagery that I totally missed the math. Good catch.

Yeah, punk is right. It amazes me, the older I get, the dumber 20-year-olds sound.

"Yeah, punk is right. It amazes me, the older I get, the dumber 20-year-olds sound."

It just struck me very close to home, considering that my daughter is 19 years old. Very close to her attitude some days, too...

I'm sure I wasn't any different at that age (I don't clearly remember), though I also know I wasn't the asshole about it that this clown is. Being a prick - not just the whiny, pseudo-imaginative little wee-wee Mr. Chicago is, above - takes dedication and practice, and I get the opportunity every day.

I graduated from college & got married at about that point in life, and I was well aware the world owed me absolutely nothing. I have a Mark Twain quote on that score around here ... "Don't go around saying the world owes you a living. The world owes you nothing. It was here first."

I'm convinced that there is an entire generation in the process of getting their collective asses kicked by the world. If the ones that Ray tells me about that he's had to deal with are any indication, I don't dare ever retire, because there won't be people who could do my job without their parents sitting in the office holding their hands as they attempt it. And don't get me started on the nursing students that age. *shudder*

"When I was 8, a frisbee flew into my backyard and I blew it up with my mind"


That line takes the cake.

This is hysterical.
