My son is now an "entrepreneur." That's what you're called when you don't have a job.
Ted Turner
A date is a job interview that lasts all night. The only difference between a date and a job interview is that there are not many job interviews where there's a chance you'll end up naked at the end of it.

In the resume derby, everything you do to distinguish yourself moves you another length ahead of the pack.
