Empathy

Ok, now I feel for Meta. I am revamping my resume. It sucks. Both the resume, and having to redo it. I'm a lazy bitch, and haven't redone my resume in years. Mostly because my dead hard drive ate the last resume I had. And then because inertia set in and I never needed a resume for the other jobs I got (since I just moved within the company). I hate having to think this much about things I'd rather just know are out there somewhere (like an objective, specific job search criteria, my positive and negative qualities, how I'd sell myself once I figure out a job I want to go after, etc, etc...). I end up having to do a bit every night. And that feels like too much, but at the same time it moves forward only glacially.

Maybe if I make an appointment with someone for early next week that will be enough impetus for me to actually write something decent (ok, marketable)? It would actually be easier if I knew what things people are working on so that I could tell them how I'd be an asset to their organization. Instead I have to take a square hole and figure out how to fit my trapezoidal self into it. Yeesh.

Ok, I'm done bitching (for the moment). My little resume is nowhere near as stressful as Meta's SoP. When did I get this lazy????
