Resume FAIL

Sometimes, copying out of a resume book is just obvious. It is impossible for this individual to have held all of these concurrent positions, and if he did, I’d check his urine for signs of uppers.

Brief overview: In a matter of 5 years this person managed to hold all of these jobs in all of these places – Public Information Writer (California), Nursing Assistant II (CA), Substitute Teacher (CA), Article Writer (CA), Anesthesia Technician (Chicago, IL), Law School Student (Chicago) Quality Assurance Technician (CA), Quality Assistant (CA).
