What Your Resume Really Says About You

RageTheory12 years ago

If you’ve ever made a resume, you know that 90% of it is complete bullshit. Getting a real job is about connections, not gold stars and vague skills. A resume is a delicate veil of deception that separates you from all the other unqualified assholes waiting in line for a handout. For those of you who are unworthy of immediate employment, you should know what your resume really says about you.

Ivy League University
I’m better than you and it’s a waste of my time to explain that on a piece of paper. Just smile, shake my hand, and give me your job because you’re fired.

Private University
My parents have a lot of money and I’m a little weird because my biggest class consisted of nine people. I get really, really cheap drugs though. Just saying…

Public University (with NCAA teams)
Having fun was more important to me than an education. I gained valuable socialization experience by getting shit-housed with as many people possible. There were occasional orgies…and crabs. Lots of crabs.

Public University (without NCAA teams)
I graduated. Yay for me. That pretty much sums it up.

Community College
Look, I’m trying, okay?

GPA 4.0 – I got good grades because I think grades matter.

GPA 3.5 – I studied in college…occasionally.

GPA 3.0 – My GPA is a reflection of my BAC as a student. I put more effort into beer pong than I did into class. Luckily, I’m smart enough to get decent grades without exerting myself at all.

GPA 2.5 – I failed my entire freshman year. I was too busy having lascivious sex with strangers and snorting inhuman amounts of drugs to give a fuck about class. I don’t regret any of it, but I kind of need a job. Please? Please give me a job?

GPA 2.0 – You work for my dad and soon you’ll be working for me. (OR) It was nice to meet you, sorry for wasting your time, I’ll see myself out.

I know how to Google shit and delete the porn from my browser history.

I don’t feel the need to shoot everyone in the face with an assault rifle.

“Marketing experience.”

I can sell someone a bag of their own shit and sleep like a baby at night.

“Outgoing.”

I’m not a self-centered sociopath (OR) I steal shoes from strangers and prance around my house naked in them.

Some say it’s a coke problem, but look how much work I get done. MORE MOTIVATION! ALWAYS DO MORE MOTIVATION!
