    Weekly Wrap Up (Oct. 11 - Oct. 17)

    By wildone

    I may be dating myself (not like that, geez ), but back in the days of Johnny Carson hosting the Tonight Show, Ed McMahon would always start the show off with, "Herrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrre's Johnny," for an introduction. I may or may not have used AI to help recreate this  Okay, I totally did  Can't use the actual likeness of Ed McMahon though .  I just wanted to resurrect the famous line to let everyone know that Annual GA Anthology has started   In case you have been out of the  countr

Resume Fluffing

So in my job search to enter the legal field (either as a receptionist, a paralegal, legal assistant, etc etc) I had my resume redone by some nice paralegal lady I met in a Facebook group. Only I'm a little worried that she fluffed it up a bit too much. I'm trying to get it peer-reviewed on Facebook before I start posting it to Indeed.
