That was interesting to me. Do people actually put hobbies on resumes? I don't have or put any on mine. I keep my personal life out of my work life except when coworkers become friends. None of anyone's business. Over here we use CV's which are very similar to Resumes but are structured a little different. On most CVs you would have an 'Interest and Activites' section. To not have this section would look very bad. I used the word resume as the majority of posters are in the US. No one is really interested in your hobbies. In the US, or Europe (I worked in Europe a few years). Only include things in your resume/CV that add to how your are presenting yourself. as an example, when I had the extra space in mine, I didnt list skydiving per say, but I general certifications, I had my coaching and instructor ratings.

So, getting back to the OP...... Yes, that did bug me, especially in HS. I was taking all the math & science classes (not required by the last 2 years), plus my required humanities, so my day was full. By best friend was only on half days our senior year because she had fulfilled all the other actual requirements. In college, everyone had to take at least one class in 8 required subjects (all at the 100-level, although there was a list of the bare minimum classes). Essentially, everyone had to get out of their own department the same as everyone else. It was probably easier for me to read Shakespeare than for the literature majors having to take Biology for the first time since their early years of HS. Yes, back on topic please... There would be lots of benefits for "social studies" students if their curriculum included some science / math classes. Some of the successful peers I have that come from that side to the campus often are the ones with a more rounded approach to things, or who can do some basic dB programming for example. Heck, a good friend of mine if a very successful sales development manager at one of the big pharmas, and she has a history degree, but is one smart cookie (and before Shah goes on about how she must be a tall hot blonde who flirts her way to the sales, looks wise, she's fairly average looking).

By the way, how long ago did you make that up? 2 hours? :p Remster

C'est fait! Remster

It is. And it's also a horrific thing to say unless you like working in confrontational environments. How about "I work hard, and I also like the play hard" or "I find it helps me manage my stress and perform better in all aspects of my life", or "some of the coaching techniques I learned have helped me in coaching situations at work". Do you like Ramen noodles? Remster

Fixed. Remster

That's strange. I didn't think having a dedicated swoop pond/student area/experienced jumpers/round/balloon/pink colored canopy landing area superceeded low man right of way. Are you saying that swooper couldnt see perfectly and clear his airspace? Interesting... It's very simple Remi. Hp areas should be treated with the same caution as hazards. They are. Enter at your own risk. Ian Ian: have you been involved with students? Not new-out-of-schools juniors, but students? You cannot expect them to be perfect. They mess it up all the time: tree landings, powerlines; flares at 50 feet, etc. You cannot expect that, magically, they wont be in an area they shouldnt be. Are they blameless in this? Of course not. But, IMO, if you don't know that you are the only one in the sky (not that you think you are), don't go big. I don't want to see swooping banned. But it doesn't belong in the same airspace as other traffic, and it's been proven time and time again that it is not possible to visually clear your airspace. Remster

Ho's and blow? Remster

Huh? Typically, the private sectors pays more than public jobs. What the public sector has is great benefits, which typically suck in the private world. Yes, there are exceptions... And for god's sake... Give it a rest with the girls of engineering. We get it. That part of your life sucked. Remster

It must be a subset of on of the main set. Remster

Understandable... Although I had the bestest visuals while tracking over the town there... Remster

Agreed. In fact someone comes to mind who could use this service. I know. That Krisanne chick needs to get some perspective. Remster

Geeze.. I dunno.. Maybe you could take people up on their offers! Post #2 Remster

Thanks JP. And before Bolas starts going on about banning swooping: my highlight. Remster

So why dont you have "at least as intelligent as me" in your list of things you can't look past? Remster

How could I forget this one: Spectre230: "I can buy and sell any of you! Just give me a moment to jump off the space shuttle." Remster

Boobies: good. Post them. Slappie: he sucks. WildBlue: see Slappie. Squeak: "you suck." Badgers: to be euthanized. Along with snakes. An2: yes, it's one. Ryoder: "yes, it's a bicycle." Shah: "One more post about what type of women I want, and why I'll never score one." Remster

It is like deja vu all over again... Remster

Since I still dont know how to post the right forum... Lets suppose one has a conference he has to go to in Acapulco in October. Any of you people have a recommendation for the nicest place on the beach there? Price is always a factor, but it's on expenses. Remster

Is that in Baja Arizona? You listen to too much NPR (and so do I! lol) Remster

I work in South Tucson. I'll manage (Thanks for your concern Dave) Remster

Dammit! And I cant even move it anymore! lol Damm not being green sucks! lol Remster

Are you going to have a car (or can you walk?) ? There are probably house/room rentals from dz peeps in that price range in close proximity to the DZ, but not on the DZ itself. Remster
