My girlfriend would like me to point out that if she were going to go into battle, or fight someone, or do pretty much anything physical, she'd be wearing a good bra that doesn't allow for much movement despite her larger cup size, and doesn't understand video game costumes at all, nor why developers feel the need to…

This post reminds me of a resume seminar I went to where they passed around an example of "how not to submit a resume," and the sample was from a kid I'd gone to high school with.
Nothing makes you feel confident about submitting a resume (or cover letter!) like knowing you can be publicly shamed for trying to get a…

There is nothing at all wrong with what this person wrote. You guys are really reaching for the outrage factor on this one.

This is frustrating because of the whole "need experience to get experience" thing we've all encountered— I was hired last year for my first salaried/big girl job, and its frustrating that even in the entry level world, no one wants to train anyone anymore— new applicants have to prove they know what they're doing…

Really curious about the type of victim's rights organization that allows its staff to share job applicants' cover letters to be mocked online. Yay privacy and respect! Suggest they re-evaluate staff they've already hired, and start looking for the a replacement for the bully that shared this.

You should be ashamed of yourself for writing this. She wants to help abuse vicitms and is obviously very young and trying to make her job experience relevent. I think she makes a good case for herself while admitting brides and abuse victims are "far different."

So...she's doing pretty much what everyone does when applying for a job? I actually won't apply for a job that requires a cover letter, but as far as I'm aware, everyone tries to make their experience relevant to the job they want. Also, if she didn't post this somewhere herself, the HR person who shared it should…

I would be pretty upset if any part of my job applications were made public. I work for a quasi-governmental agency, and we've got very strict requirements about how to dispose of applications when the hiring process is over so that no confidential information is made public. I'm not sure how the process works for…

So? Finding jobs is hard she's just trying to work in what experience she's got. You guys suck.

Oh, God. One more reason to be glad social media was practically non-existent when I got out of college. I don't want to even think about the stretches I made to get jobs.

This is pretty low. A cover letter is supposed to help you show the hiring manager what you can bring to a new job, and this woman wants to use skills she's gained in the past to be a victim advocate in the future. This is probably an entry level job for her, or she'd be talkinga bout her criminal justice experience.…

I love that Kelly got the 'Fuckin' section.

I think being able to adjust who sees you is good, though I don't see why not give men the same option. Dating is not relevant to being a man-lawyer either.

I worked at a drive-thru only fast food place where it was not uncommon for staff to put scabs and/or loogies in a customer's food if said customer was being a total asshole.

I'm not anti-gun. I grew up in a place with guns. I understand their utility. But the reason I've never bought one — besides the difficulty of getting a CHL license in New York — is that it's another thing someone can wrestle away from me and use against me. I just don't think it's a solution to the larger issue.

in re: requested memo-

If you read his book, he comes off as a bit of a control freak in general. I understand and agree with a lot of his complaints, but I also don't think he understands what things make sense for a broad audience on network TV. If he wanted it to be more true to life, he would have sold it to Netflix or another premium…

Don't Trust the B is a TREASURE.

Why is that odd? It's one of the main reasons his fanbase existed, before this film.

I terminated a very wanted pregnancy at 26 weeks gestation in June. My daughter had a genetic duplication and abnormalities that would have ensured that her life was brief and painful, had she even survived the rest of pregnancy and birth. If I was not extremely privileged to have excellent health insurance and enough…
