« on: January 17, 2008, 11:37:42 AM »
I've got 2 engineers openings right now and going throught resumes. One of the first thing my HR girl does is check them out on myspace.

So far, we rejected about 12 candidates because of what we saw.

Good tip. You posted this some time ago as well, but a reminder = good stuff.

This is exactly why I will never work for anyone for the rest of my life.

Potential employer: "So Matt, we were looking at your myspace and..."
Matt C: "Go fuck yourself." *leaves*

I just can't tolerate anyone giving me orders or telling me what to do or feeling that they are in any way control of me or my decisions in life.  I have so many miserable experiences from the army that even years later I still feel this way.

MattC's post = perfectly fine. He likes being independent in life, thus he goes the business route., where he has more control over his life than if he were to have a job.

Since this maximizes his emotional well being, it = the best choice.

Debussey feels the same way about life, freedom = the way to go.
