*giggles* I'm sure you're in agony about a lot of those applications, but they sure make for an amusing entry! :)

Danke. It's amazing how awful some of these resumes can be. What are people really thinking when they list some of these things?!

Oh poor baby! It must be really annoying to go through so many failtastic applications. Two positions - double the pain. :(

Yup, definitely double the pain. Thankfully, there's a lot of double applying. But, still, I have about 200 resumes to go through and have only made it through about 100 of them.

I have about 300 to go through so far and have only done about 100 of them. They're really entertaining at times, like the guy who mentioned his hobbies were his ukelele and bodysurfing.

I don't know what people are thinking when they write these things up.

Ewww. That sounds painful. I give you kudos for doing it, but good luck! Sad how many people don't know how to submit an application for a job. *hugs*

Oh man, yeah. It's painful and hilarious. I can't wait until the interviewing starts. That's when the rational people suddenly take idiot pills and say the most wretched things.

I just don't get why people don't at least spellcheck. There are free ones on most of the job hunting sites, after all.
