tripsis Posted March 3, 2012 Share Posted March 3, 2012 20 actually affected me more than 21. In the US when you're 21 you can drink, but that's about it, and I don't care about drinking. Nothing 'special' happens at 20 but it means you're officially not a teenager. You're out of the teens and into the 20s. 21 is just one more year. Not as much of a numerical milestone for me. - 99 fletching | 99 thieving | 99 construction | 99 herblore | 99 smithing | 99 woodcutting - - 99 runecrafting - 99 prayer - 125 combat - 95 farming - - Blog - DeviantART - Book Reviews & Blog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevepole Posted March 3, 2012 Share Posted March 3, 2012 20 scared the shit out of me. It was that moment that you realize you are no longer a kid and an actual adult of some sort. 21 was fun, but only because it meant I no longer had to use someone to buy me beer and I no longer had to confine my drinking to house parties. 22 and on, I simply stopped thinking about age.

Tim Posted March 3, 2012 Share Posted March 3, 2012 mind you I feel bad being 21 because my 21st sucked. almost EVERYONE forgot, even when I organized a night out in town to help me regain my social life, only 4 people came. In a way I hate being 21 also, because I know people @ 19 already living out of home, independent lives, (may or maynot be dating), etc, and I have yet to do ONE of those things @ 21 due to getting screwed over from that economic crisis in 2008 which hit just as I finished school, and the Hunter area I live in hasnt recovered since.

The_Gabe Posted March 3, 2012 Share Posted March 3, 2012 How does one go about writing a CV? I'm nearing senior year in high school and thought it would be a good time to start writing down accomplishments.

stevepole Posted March 3, 2012 Share Posted March 3, 2012 How does one go about writing a CV? I'm nearing senior year in high school and thought it would be a good time to start writing down accomplishments. I have mine setup chronologically starting with work experience, education, and then my last section is volunteer work. For my job experiences, I basically milked each one to make them appear more glamours to a future employer. The key is to basically make them cater to your strengths and the position that you're applying to. It's also good after you get one setup, to get someone like your HS counselor, a parent, someone you trust to go over it for some constructive criticism.

Iamdan Posted March 3, 2012 Share Posted March 3, 2012 Even though I have told myself so many times that I would rather get hit in the chest with projectile diarrhea than work on a modern car again, I spent today replacing my dad's clutch in the rain.

Employers are more interested in your most recent job than what you were doing ages ago, so they'll want to see that first. | Favourite Game Music | Last.fm | HYT Friend Chat Rules | Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Assume Nothing Posted March 3, 2012 Share Posted March 3, 2012 My basic setup goes: most relevant first, least relevant last. Don't include blank statements, and illustrate your strengths. Oh, and always check for spelling errors - a single grammatical or spelling mistake could cost you the potential job (the surveys indicate approx 30%+ of employers would refuse a Resume on the first typo - the mentality goes 'if you're going to make a mistake on a Resume, you're going to make a mistake on the job').

Kirschen Posted March 3, 2012 Share Posted March 3, 2012 Now that it's morning, I should expect local news outlets flooded with the storm damages, especially on the wrecked city north of me. I am a bit annoyed that they are going to overdo it on the details (although it does benefit it gets people focused on the subject matter), but I don't want it being the only story that is mentioned. Groceries today also, but that will be rather tricky to pull off knowing people have a tendency to buy up supplies here whenever any notable storm hits, so I hope the lines aren't too obnoxious to put up with. As for signatures, I may work on practicing mine soon since I know I am very rusted on my handwriting and get the feeling my applications might be getting turned down because of it. While I do not grasp the concept of anything related to being formal, I am just going to silently grumble and deal with the conformity for now since it has its benefits.

Estonian dude Posted March 3, 2012 Share Posted March 3, 2012 What would that "seediest" person mean? Sorry, not too familiar with American English. Anyways, today (or now, yesterday) was our national finals for this year's Eurovision song contest. Sad to admit that the best song on it wasn't one that competed, instead it was one of the extra acts that were on during voting time and it was actually an ancient movie song. I wonder what is it with that that nearly all songs are of alternative sorts... So I've noticed this thread's regulars all follow similar trends. RPG is constantly dealing with psycho exes.Muggi reminds us of the joys of polygamy.Saq is totally oblivious to how much chicks dig him.I strike out every other week.Kalphite wages a war against the friend zone.Randox pretty much stays rational.Etc, etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just put them somewhere near by, have it so they won't choke on their vomit, and then do something else. One time we spent a good 2 hours playing cards, with one guy on his side because he had too much to drink (10 shots in 20 minutes.) Every few minutes we'd make sure he was conscious and other than that didn't pay much attention to him as he was stable. One of the guys wasn't drinking and had his car parked out the front, so if anything happened he would be able to drive him to the hospital.

Giordano Posted March 4, 2012 Share Posted March 4, 2012 Job interview at McDonald's on Monday. Anything I should know/do? Particularly how to dress...For some reason, I can't decide how to dress up for it.Dress pants, buttoned up shirt (tucked in), and a tie. No suits or anything but clothes worthy of an office setting.

Randox Posted March 4, 2012 Share Posted March 4, 2012 I found out today that the Tower of Terror ride was based on the Twilight Zone in general, and no such episode of the show actually exists :( But they did make a movie based on the ride :) EDIT: Watched it. Good movie, though like Pirates of the Carribean (and I suspect every other movie based on one of their rides), it doesn't actually follow the rides own story line, but rather includes the setting and events. They also used the attraction itself in the movie, which is kind of neat seeing as I was there recently enough that I can actually recognize the stuff from the attraction. Also, I recognized one of the actresses as the girl from Jumanji, and apparently she is the same actress who played MJ in the spiderman trilogy (now that I know that, I can see the resemblance). They did two other attractions as movies (that I want to see, but they also did Country Bears). Mission Mars and the Haunted Mansion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
