--

Specific reason for leaving: Politics in the church became unberabel


--

Position Title: HOME HEALTH AIDE
Specific reason for leaving: CLIENTS DIED


--

Position Title: sorter and mech.pricer
Employer: Good-will
Summary of experience: ... I really loved my boss she was the greates ever.


--

Summary of experience: i cook,bath,give meds, and suervise 4 consumers that have disabilities. so they are in a group home

These are all for a Custodian position. I think it pays 1474 a month.

I'd be so embarrassed, even to read those resumes.
These are just ones that know how to use a computer to apply. You should see the ones who have to bring in hand written apps because they don't know how to use a computer.

It's hard to this throat clearing thing over text, but these are GOVT jobs.

Also, this is in a teeny tiny town out in BFE where the only other employer within 3 counties is Wal-Mart.

And sadly I am a well paid City Clerk.

Some people dont utilize the tools out there to better themselves. Many local agencies will help folks learn to do this stuff for free.

I didn't come up with the phrase, but it does lend itself to stronger imagery than "attract elephants".
