Avoid any reference to condoms in your resume if not absolutely necessary...
But it was part of the job! It was not me that was using it!
Does anybody have any more suggestions???
I actually found this to be very entertaining. Refreshing break from some of the PJ bashing threads.
Don't forget jefferies...what a piece of crap mm shop.
What if maybe I like Jefferies?!
This looks like one of the resumes missInd posted about her wanna be interns, I thank God every day for making as clever as I am. Are you really putting those smiley faces in your resume? That resume would work perfectly if you were to apply as an applebee's manager
