Resumes

Isn't it sad that we can spend 5, 10, 15 years at a job and when we put it on a resume, it's reduced to a one paragraph synopsis? You can spend an entire year working on a project, putting every ounce of your soul into it, and when it goes on your resume, it's reduced to "Took lead in implementing multi-million dollar project".

It's even more sad that our entire lives have to be summed up in a few words on our headstones. "Beloved Mother" or "Cherished Husband" are the types of things I often see. My headstone will probably read, "IMA ENTJ." :)
