I have been job searching for three months and here’s a look at the experience in today’s economy and with the current methods of applying for positions.
(I’m not at an executive or above level, I’m not at the minimum wage level, I’m near the middle somewhere, so I am only speaking to my spot on [...]
One would have to live under a rock, in a cave, on mars to have not heard about the $700 billion bailout program Bush is asking for, the press won’t shut up about it. The big 3 auto makers are trying to get their grubby little hands on $25 billion of those dollars so they [...]
Prepare to be schooled. Legitimately.
On the second Tuesday in November, history will be made. America will have elected either its first African American president, more than 140 years after the Emancipation Proclamation, or the first woman vice president, nearly 90 years following the ratification of the bill that gave U.S. women the right [...]
Scott Kerkmans has landed the position as the Chief Beer Officer at The Four Points by Sheraton hotels chain. Yes, it’s the world’s first known CBO.
Before you get too excited and start searching for CBO positions, take note: Kerkmans doesn’t earn a salary. Could be a problem, but he does get [...]
Alright, people listen up. First off, I’m not going the politically-correct route and using the term “holidays” because 1) no one shopping for Kwaanza has pissed me off lately and 2) I really don’t care. This isn’t a blog about proper “holiday” terminology. It’s a rant about how Christmas turns people in [...]
Now that I’m (kind of) an adult, I don’t really get to make a Christmas list anymore. There are fewer presents under the tree and more cards with some cash in them. It’s not that I’m complaining - money is great - but it’s more fun to open gifts than to buy them [...]
Consider this more of a rant than an actual how-to article, and possibly a bit one-sided as well since I am a photographer. You need a wedding photographer, you’ve made the decision to get married and you want to remember that day as best you can, for as long as it takes until you [...]
Although we, as a blogging entity, write about things that are of personal interest, Randomn3ss.com generally isn’t a forum for personal thoughts and feelings. I mean, this isn’t a diary. However, I’m going to divert from the norm and use this space as a forum to send a HUGE BIG THANK YOU to [...]
Blogging for me is like a part time job. Between this site and the other blog I run, around one to two hours per day is vested in maintaining them. This time includes:
Writing the actual articles
Research for new articles
Reading several dozen blogs, commenting where I can and getting ideas for new articles
Answering reader [...]
In a bid to earn the right to bear the nickname “Pennsyl-tucky,” the commonwealth of Pennsylvania closed today because it forgot that you need money to do things. Namely, things that require 24,000 employees to help run, oh you know, a little thing called THE STATE.
