    Oh, I see. Yeah, a few years ago they were doing the same thing with me, too. I joined but it just wasn't suited to me.

    Not sure that's for Him. Lots of aggressiveness on the workfloor there (and it is condoned and even stimulated). Even in the lunch breaks they can get quite rowdy!

    Hello,

    jepp ;). Splitting each others heads in the competitions, having plenty of mead and a boar in the kettle every day, ahhh, that's life.

    Hello,

    the only thing I don't understand is the boar. A boar is a male pig and I have heard that they smell really awful if they get cooked. Hm, maybe the mead deafens your olfactory nerves.

    Feeble humans that complain about such a smell probably don't get to party in valhalla anyway! It's only for the warriors after all.

    Hello,

    make sense. After being in the field for some time, the smell of the boar is like perfume ;).

    Regards
    Gyro

    PS: I wonder what Irminsul has to say about Valhalla

    Hello.

    That's ok.
    I wanted people to upload their proper CV's so I could grab some ideas.
    I have not put one together in around 10 years or so. Things change.
    That isn't likely to happen it seems.
    Please don't link me to 'CV Help' n whatnot.
    I've read too many of those types of sites already -_-

    Hello,

    hmm, I have to write a CV in a year or so. Maybe. I plan to use the same one I used eight years ago. Maybe I throw out a few skills and add a few new ones, depends on the position I will apply for. What gave me good feedback the last time was that my CV and my application 'looked different' than most others. That's because I don't use typical office software to produce them. You can't easily tell the exact difference if you are not a typesetting pro, but you recognise it. HR people ask me about that ;).

    Regards
    Gyro
