For people redoing their resume. Many people make their resumes additive. They simply add their most recent job and ignore all of their previous jobs.

Many times, you have evolved from those early jobs and you need to revise those parts of your resume to reflect the new jobs that you are applying for.

Agreed. Working in the food ingredient industry, I'm not especially keen on recycling oil that has been used to cook other things in. Especially things that can carry salmonella. You can also throw them into a ziploc bag and do sous vide. But, why bother? Poaching eggs isn't all that hard.

And you do what with the olive oil that you use?

iPod Classic that died after about 3 years. For about $100.00 Apple gave me a refurbished one with a year warranty. Any other company would have said tough luck.

iPhone 4S. Developed a hardware problem 45 days after the warranty ran out. Apple replaced it for free and the refurbished unit got another 1 year warranty.

My…

The thing that you have to ask yourself, and what happened to the person I knew, if another company (bigger) comes in and buys the company, is whether you'd have a job. Hopefully, you can answer that. Not if they'd demote you and you'd have a job, would you have a job.

I literally have played guitar for 40+ years. I've referred many people to this site for guitar lessons.

One of the disadvantages of things such as RockSmith, is that you don't learn the proper techniques of the physical aspect of playing. You then sit there a year later trying to correct bad habits.

Go a bit down the…

One other caution about putting yourself in this type of position.

Be VERY careful to not put yourself in a box where you don't have an identifiable job.

I watched a co-worker put himself in a position where he was the only one doing multiple tasks. That was great until the company got bought out by another company. He…

We can quibble about getting interest through you bank being the best deal, but any money you get is more than you get by taking the money out of an investment.

So if you got a "deal" on say a 2006 Ferrari, you'd turn it down. ;-)

Since I've spent a lot of my career as a sales person, I probably have had a lot more new cars than most. Typically I'd get a new business car every other year. Add to that the cars for my wife and myself.

A huge part of buying any car is emotional. Hence the sales of Corvettes. Some people just need that new car fix.

W…

It wasn't shoehorn. With their parameters, I knew that I'd spend a LOT of time getting nowhere. My time is what I sell. I'd probably have worked 40-60 hours and probably not have found someone. Spent on other things, I could place someone making 3 times that amount, ie. 3 times the money for me, and actually be able…

One big thing that I've noticed when trying to speed read. Essentially these programs don't allow you to pause. As you say, when you're reading, you sometimes stop to think about a feeling, or a concept, etc.

I've increased my rate probably 50-100%, but have no desire to try to push it further.

I'm a recruiter, having spend 28 years selling food ingredients.

Maybe 1/4th of my time I spend educating companies on what the market for a particular job are getting.

I remember a company in Minneapolis. They wanted a junior QA person. College degree in Food Science and at least 5 years experience. That type of person…

If possible you also need to know about the person you are negotiating with.

Multi-million dollar business deal. I had only dealt with this individual once before. This time around I had worked to get him an extremely good price. When I went in, he instantly started trying to get me to lower the price. I finally caught…

Well, I had the time to go to the DNC website and I called the FCC Chicago office.

There's no such thing as a one free call rule. Additionally auto dialers still must comply with the DNC. Sorry.

We disagree.

It's my understanding, and I could easily be wrong, that telemarkerters are supposed to check the list before they call a number.

I've had my numbers on the list since it was first established.

As I said, given the number of calls that I get, I have to assume that the Do Not Call List is stopping some of…

I may be incorrect, but I've never heard of a one call rule. It's a "Do Not Call" list, not a one call list.

That being said, I can only imagine the number of phone calls that I'd get if I weren't already on that list.

With that in mind, I find that enforcement of the "Do Not Call" list appears to be non-existent.

I…

I've worked in the food ingredient industry for over 30 years. I spent about 15 of those years selling flavors. Never sold oils, but everyone in the industry has heard of the olive oil market "labeling" issues.

My one quibble about the article, and their source for their "defective" remarks is how they came up with…

Didn't mention when people think there's a major poop problem only to realize that they ate beets the night before.

I have both. Unless someone has had a different experience everything that I've watched on both is commercial free.
