What
Not To Put On Your Application For Employment
NAME: Greg
Bulmash
DESIRED POSITION:
Reclining. Ha ha. But seriously,
whatever's available. If I was in a position to be picky, I
wouldn't
be applying here in the first place.
DESIRED SALARY:
$185, 000 a year plus stock options and a Michael
Ovitz style severance package. If that's not possible, make an
offer
and we can haggle.
EDUCATION: Yes.
LAST POSITION HELD:
Target for middle-management hostility.
SALARY: Less than
I'm worth.
MOST NOTABLE
ACHIEVEMENT: My incredible collection of stolen pens and
post-it notes.
REASON FOR LEAVING:
It sucked.
HOURS AVAILABLE TO
WORK: Any.
PREFERRED HOURS:
1:30-3:30 p.m., Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday.
DO YOU HAVE ANY SPECIAL
SKILLS?: Yes, but they're better suited
to a more intimate environment.
MAY WE CONTACT YOUR
CURRENT EMPLOYER?: If I had one, would I be here?
DO YOU HAVE ANY PHYSICAL
CONDITIONS THAT WOULD PROHIBIT YOU FROM
LIFTING UP TO 50 LBS?: Of what?
DO YOU HAVE A CAR?:
I think the more appropriate question here
would be "Do you have a car that runs?"
HAVE YOU RECEIVED ANY
SPECIAL AWARDS OR RECOGNITION?: I may
already be a winner of the Publishers Clearinghouse Sweepstakes.
DO YOU SMOKE?: Only
when set on fire.
WHAT WOULD YOU LIKE TO BE
DOING IN FIVE YEARS? Living in Bimini
with a fabulously wealthy super model who thinks I'm
the greatest thing since sliced bread. Actually, I'd like to be
doing that now.
DO YOU CERTIFY THAT THE
ABOVE IS TRUE AND COMPLETE TO THE BEST OF YOUR
KNOWLEDGE?: No, but I dare you to prove otherwise.
SIGN HERE: Scorpio
with Libra rising.
