CV Headline: I came from the futire

"About Me:
Strangely it may seem, but I've noticed that what I am doing today, others do couple years after.

Instead of being a follower I prefer to be a leader. I never fail to do what I believe is right and I don’t care what other people think about me. Not a

good sign but again, I se a term of 'being successful' as making it despite all adversity, rather than making it by using other people's weaknesses. No

wonder, I have no money, but again, although being "loaded" is commonly used as a measure of being successful, this does not apply to my view and it is not

a true measure of "success". Personally I'd rather be a poor free man, rather that rich slave.

Apart from having a Can Do attitude, which means that I'd rather have a go on doing something, rather than talking about it, I am


also easily bored so I prefer chaotic environment, no wonder admin is not quite my cup of tea.

I guess I prefer to work with people that can inspire me, both creatively and spiritually (although I am not a religious person). "


I actually admire his enthusiasm. I also love the fact that he comes from the 'futire', but I'm not sure whether I'd be curious or scared to meet this guy.

So passionate

"Interests :
Although not an activity, traveling is another one of my passions."


I can appreciate having a interest, which you do not partake in. Formula One, for example is difficult for most people to dabble in at the weekends.
But how can you be passionate about travel that you don't do, and places you haven't been to ?

Vast talents

"Work Sought : Anything Busy and rewarding that employs my vast talents and rewards accordingly. Will take performance related as I'm good"

You forgot to add "humble".

Don't get me wrong, I love enthusiasm and pride in ones ability, but the term "my vast talents" rubs me the wrong way.

Give me the news, I gotta bad case of lovin' you.

Received today - Dr Doctor.

Yes, that's his name. He was Mr Doctor, and in July last year he completed his PhD in Computer Science making him Dr Doctor. I know I'm a simple person, but for me it doesn't get much better than that.

...

I've just discovered that this is called Nominative Determinism
So there you go, not just amusing we're now informative too.

I'll just help him search.

"I worked with Mr Imran Khan (Former Pakistan cricket player) in his campaign for cancer."

A campaign for cancer research, A campaign for cancer awareness, A campaign for cancer care. These are all options, but I'm guessing the fast-bowling lothario wasn't involved in Equal Rights for Carcinogens. I'm pretty sure the Imran Khan Foundation is against it.

Dynamic individual

"interests and hobbies
none at present"

None ? At present ? huh ?
Perhaps it used to read "Interests and hobbies - sitting", but he couldn't take the pace of such an arduous activity.

Much use ?

"Monster CV Headline : 1 year old French Marketing Executive in the UK"


Probably as much use as most marketing people.

I'm great. I think.

"I have a wide variety of skills and experience, some of which I have taken for granted and cannot readily recall.
If considered for employment, I believe I will be an asset to your reputable organisation."

I will be an asset, but please remind me what my job is every morning.

it’s very simple Mike. You are interested in my profile and i wanted to know how much you were able to pay. no response means: you either can’t pay that much, or you only hire indians and pakistanis who don’t ask for a good salary. but dude, i am neither indian or paki and i have never worked for less than 2000 usd/month. You got it now!?

You don't agree with me ? Here - drink this.

"1999-2000 Israel Center for Negotiation and Medication"

Happy New Year to you all !

We start 2007 with another great example of how a simple typo (one single additional letter !) can change a context. I'm pretty sure he meant the Israel Center for Negotiation and Mediation but perhaps effective use of Rohypnol is also a good sales technique.
