A.k.a resume writing.
Boy I hate it. :s
It's hard to quantify yourself. Especially for me as I don't like to toot my own horn. But unfortunately, that's what a resume is. It is hard as you may have had a pretty hard and demanding job, but since it is your job, you don't think anything of it. A good buddy of mine (Abe) came by to help me out with my resume and as I would explain stuff that I did, he'd go wow and where the fuck (well not quite that word) is that on your resume? :o
But it is good to have a good friend (family cannot really cut it on somethings) who has a fresh and objective (hence why family is excluded) view on things. A complete outsider to help suggest things (not write the freaking thing for you) to put on your resume.
Though another option that I am considering is have it written (for a hefty sum).
We shall see. :)
All I know thus far, is my old resume is shit that is vague and would be better off as toilet paper. I have the buff and horsepower, just not the ticket for the ride. :\

Happy Ramadan!
Wewt!
Ramadan is here! Along with it's glory, is some changes. Namely me being jobless. LOL!
After a 13 month stint, I am now out of a job. If you are looking for a PC Hardware nut who has a strong business aptitude with vast and in depth (and passionate!) knowledge on PC Hardware (and the industry) and consumer electronics, do let me know. I am used to working long and hard on things. Muahahaha!
So now I am left wondering wtf I want to do with my life. I love operations. I love supply chain. I love efficiency. But most of all, I love computers/tech/it. However, it seems that these are either 1) Hard markets to penetrate for a non-tech 'background' (even though I could probably smoke most people with my hardware knowledge - off the back of my hand) or 2) I need to make more friends on the operations side of things.
Supply Chain/Inventory Management/Logistics seems to drift away from my overall goal of ending up in corporate business.
I have toyed with the idea of running a small business. Mainly because I am sick of applying for jobs.
What I need is a career coach...
Anybody have any recommendations?
