i came here with a load, and it feels so much lighter now i've met you

i posted my resume on monster.com.
so far, i've been sent info from enterprise- to sell used cars
and primerica. i cant explain primerica. but if you google it, you can find all the details. mostly bad...

i dont really see how an international politics degree with an urge to see the world translates into used cars. but hey. i cant be picky right now.

thats why i will be working mornings at toys r us- and weekends serving for a catering company.

funny thing is- instead of working for rock financial, i will be serving them dinner on saturday.
Bubba applied for an engineering position at a Lake Charles refinery. A Yankee applied for the same job. Both applicants, having the same qualifications, were asked to take a test. Upon completion of the test, each man had missed only one question out of ten. The manager went to Bubba and said: "Thank you for your interest, but we've decided to give the Yankee the job." Bubba asked, "and why are you giving him the job? We each got nine questions correct. This being Louisiana, and me being a Southern boy, I should get the job!" The manager said, "We have made our decision not on the correct answers, but rather on the one question that you both missed." Bubba then asked, "And just how would one incorrect answer be better than the other?" The manager replied: "Bubba, it's like this. For question # 4 the Yankee wrote; 'I don't know.' And you wrote, 'Neither do I.'"

and i cant even really believe, no one was sent to get me...

I went to a picnic yesterday. I was told by a mentally retarded guy that I looked like Kelly Bundy, from Married With Children. I don't know if he meant to say Christina Applegate or really Kelly Bundy. I'm just hoping it wasnt Kelly from the early 80s. Needless to say, I didn't have a spandex dress on or bangs that could touch the ceiling. I think my long, straight, blonde hair was really the only match for a Kelly Bundy comparison. *shrugs*
When I was 13, a 30ish guy was trying to hit on me in Marvelous Marvin's Mechanical Museum. He told me I looked like Kim Basinger. He then inserted a quarter into a touch screen game that you would usually find in a bar, and wanted me to play a round with him. However, I think the options screen confused him because instead of selecting the game *for guys* where you would get a woman in a bikini to look at with a trivia question underneath, he chose "guys" and ended up with guys laying around in thong swimsuits on beaches. He then just looked really confused, mumbled something about the game being broken and stumbled off, to masturbate furiously in the mens room- for all I know...
When I was 14, my then bf told me I kinda looked like Kate Moss. However, I didn't subsequently starve myself to keep that look. Or, more realistically, I never really looked like Kate Moss.
I think that's everyone I've been compared to. At least, thats all I can remember.
Any others you can think of? (referring to the 2 people that *might* read this, that know me...)
