Best-case scenario: the hiring manager will review your resume about 2 minutes before your interview to make sure he/she can correctly identify your last employer or school. That's because, most realistically, your resume will reach the hiring manager through someone you know and who can recommend you. HR types estimate that more than 80% of job openings are filled that way. The layout/format/paper of you resume is going to contribute basically nothing. Personal experience: 3 very different jobs in 3 tech companies.

Grado SR80e headphones: I'm hoping against hope that on-ear headphones might actually be more comfortable than over-ear ones, at least for my apparently gigantic head and ears. I ordered them yesterday and am supposed to get them tomorrow  I feel that's a tad optimistic for this time of year, even for Amazon.And a subscription to Crashplan. Now I just have to wait for drat near 3 weeks for all my poo poo to upload.

Yeah, I've read that a lot of people do that. Hoping the first few days will let me figure out what I need before I drop even more money on them. Actually, reading about that introduced me to the headphone modification people and... holy hell do those people take it seriously.

Jekub posted:I bought a piece of off-cut solid oak kitchen worktop and built myself a new desk. Part of our current project to reorganize and de-clutter our tiny house. Very happy with the result, I was having a significantly hard time finding cheap desks which were not horrible flat packs. Everything I could find which was solid wood on steel legs or frame was horrible expensive, so this worked out really well. I have the rest of the offcut which will turn into some small corner shelves. Love it! Did a very similar thing when I moved to a new place that was 1/3 the size of my old one. Here's my final product:  Sorry, I basically brag about it every chance I get.

colas posted:What does the oil do? I just shaved my big 2 month beard. The skin underneath is always so dry/flaky. I'm clueless as to maintaining it, I get annoyed when it gets all grizzly, so I always end up shaving it. I don't know what to do with it, it's like taking care of a face bonsai. Moisturizes skin and (somewhat) softens beard hair. It really made it far less itchy when you're growing it out, at least for me. Plus, some of these oils have a fantastic smell. I'm partial to this one myself. I want to make baked goods with it. Yes, you'll feel like a massive Williamsburg lumbersexual hipster. No way to avoid that part of it, I'm afraid.

LTBS posted:I got them at 30% off plus I have another pair of the exact same shoe but different color and I like the way they fit. I have a pair of Johnston and Murphys but they don't fit well. I'm not saying you need to return them or anything, honestly. Just answering the question about alternatives from above. The other day I almost pulled the trigger on a shopping cart which added up to over $700 for a few pieces of clothing and AE shoes. As in, barely enough for one complete (non-suit) outfit . Then I had a moment of clarity that (a) holy poo poo that's a lot of money, and (b) I really shouldn't follow the sartorial groupthink out there. Not all dress shoes need to be $350+ to be good. Content: Logitech K800, to replace a dead wired one. Amazon has it for a few extra bucks off the usual price.

Jumped on the Nexus 6 as soon as Verizon started offering it on-contract. And then there's this: I know it's not a new thing, but still ... A $40 fee to upgrade my phone and extend my contract. I'm paying money to pay money.

PCOS Bill posted:You need to get away from Verizon, man. Get yourself a no-contract MVNO like Ting. Sure, you'll pay more up front buying the phone outright, but the savings over time are so worth it. I know, I really do. But every time I look into it, the price/coverage combo just doesn't pan out in favour of MVNOs. Hopefully next time... he said yet again. But on this: PCOS Bill posted:Your unsubstantiated claim sure does hold water! I mean, s/he's right -- it's nearly common knowledge that Sprint has historically been the worst of the bunch: http://bgr.com/2014/11/20/sprint-customer-satisfaction-ratings-consumer-reports/. Or maybe I just think it's common knowledge, I guess. Exceptions exist, obviously, but it seems to be the same story with Sprint every year.

This fetishization of manuals is the worst, and I say that as someone who finally had it with changing gears after owning a motorcycle. Manuals don't make you cool like Steve McQueen. They've become the automotive equivalent of a fedora. Yes, I know there's irony or someshit in this Username + Post combo. edit for thread content and continuing with the transportation theme:  Kryptonite U-lock and cable.

A far more accurate :shoeanalogy: would be shoes with laces that you had to re-lace, tighten, or loosen every time you stopped walking / walked faster / walked uphill / some combination thereof, but you argued it gave you a better feel for the subtleties of walking and it made walking in even crappy shoes fun. If that were the case, yes -- you would be an insufferable hipster fetishist purist person, and loving sign me up for velcro.

Oneiros posted:Only for fed issued cards / terminals . Rest assured retailers will drag their feet for years. I think the Target/Home Depot/etc. disasters of the last couple of years have probably softened that resistance quite a bit (even though not every breach could be prevented with chip & PIN). Whether your local burger joint will get on board without some kind of threats from the card companies is a different story.

People post all kinds of random stuff here, so maybe someone will know where I can find this: There are these car cupholders, most often found in European-spec models:   Those would be easy to find, but I don't need the whole cupholder structure -- just the rolling cover part of it (ideally metal). I'd like to build it into other random stuff I'm making. So, any thoughts where I can get the cover/roll? It doesn't have to be from a car cupholder at all, as long as it functions the same way.

The greatest trick the devil ever pulled was convincing people that a small amount of food is somehow easier to share among friends than a large amount of food. Being able to share a greater variety of food without a ton of it left over -- that's a slightly more valid argument. Which is why I do enjoy tapas from time to time.Android Bicyclist posted:Worst off, no captured princess offered their rectum to me for sexual pleasure when I finished eating it.
