So... I'm tweaking out my resume, and since the company I'm interviewing at is in need of some IT work also, I added some of my Comp-sci and hobbyist activities.

Yeah, well.... After printing it out.... I noticed that spellcheck had missed a word...

Twice.... I misspelled computer as cumputer.

:nope: :oops: :rotfl2:

Oh god no... I always triple check everything. Sometimes stuff on the screen doesn't look as good in real life.


And I also proof read anything I print out.


see what I did there?

My advise is, get someone else to proof read it. Proof reading your own stuff can be pretty dangerous. Dn't rely on spell checker either.

A water recovery company. Post fire and spills type work. Newer company, chance to get in early, right up there too with my HAZMAT training and work I used to do.

Just tired of EMS, do miss the the runs, but not the business.

Have you done any type of hazzardous chemical clean-up? I've had a little bit of HAZMAT training, but I call someone else to clean up the mess.:woot:

I've done a little, mainly bodies, never really got onto a team, but I do have the 100 hour (Tech) certification.

I've done the safety training for a lot of that, but god save us all, if I had to use my knowledge. I just call the work (internal number)version of 911.:woot:
