omg Mal, you know how we talked about the Woot tote bags and how addicted i am to them laugh out loud

up til now the only one i had was The Binge tote [woot.com].

well they had a few totes for sale around Earth Day, so i ordered two of them Blush i just got them the other day, and they're actually bigger than the Cookie Monster tote, which is weird because the item description says the same size for all of them.

now they have some cooking-themed tote bags for sale and a few cooking-themed aprons Woot

i need an intervention laugh out loud

Okay all you lovely people, I have a question for you:


So I'm applying for an internship for fall semester of this year. I'm meeting with my advisor tomorrow, and need to bring a copy of my resume and cover letter.

It's been a number of years since I've been out in the job world. Do you guys have any resume/cover letter tips or interview tips?

I'd very much appreciate any and all advice! woot

I'm really excited. But there's only about 10 different internships I've found relevant to what I want to do, and I know they'll all be pretty competitive, so I'm a little Cold about it... EEK!

Mother farkers want to blame me for a faulty product sent live to production!!!! Mad

They tried to blame an error on my testing by not including me on any of the emails discussing the problem until they had all unified that I was the one to blame. I take that as a declaration of war. They should have known that I save EVERYTHING!!!! Whee

Just showed them WITH THEIR DOCUMENTATION that the product was delivered with their specifications and it was failure to plan on their part that caused the problem. I tested based on their plan, and their plan was flawed. Kiss it, mutha farkas!!!! Cool

Crap....i bet i just made some enemies again. Facepalm

1) Make sure your resume isn't crappy
2) Don't cry during the interview
3) Be awesome

It wasn't my intention. I thought I had screwed up, and was researching where I went wrong. I got so frustrated I decided to start from the beginning. It was then I realized the reason I didn't find the error. They didn't decide it was an error until all of these duplicate records had accumulated even though their requirements and designs were built around what would result in duplication.

The folks that made the error are contractors. That mostly explains why they thought their results would work with our systems.

The resume only gets you in the door. It's the interview that gets you the job. Just don't attack their grammar, spelling, punctuation, etc. and you should be okay.

I'm sure you'll do great. Just be yourself and sell why you are the best fit. If you want to be a teacher, I suggest you attack their grammar, spelling, punctuation, etc..
