Are you there, Twitter Its me, Penelope.

Are you there, Twitter Its me, Penelope. I woke up on August 12th and my Twitter account was stolen. This is not a small account. I have 130,000 followers. Is it too optimistic to use the present tense? Im not sure, because there is still a picture of a cat in the spot that should be me. I remember the early days of Twitter. Someone emailed me ten million times to ask me if I wanted a verified account. I thought, why would I want that? But I did it. When Twitter was small peanuts and I had a coveted verified account, it only took me three emails to get to them. I want to tell you Ive sent 300 emails to them, and there would be some poetic irony, or at least some poetic rhythm. But in order to do anything with Twitter you have to be able to give them an email that is associated with the account. What? How does that work? Obviously if my account were attached to my email then I would not have a stolen account. But then I think, okay, I get it. Its like if I called up Chase Bank and I said, someone took my account and now my name and password are not associated with my money. Can you get it back for me? I search a little. Twitter has no way to for me to talk to them if I do not have an account. Since I cannot send a tweet, I send an email out asking if friends, or friends of friends, know someone at Twitter. A friend connects me to Laura. She tells me to do three things you cannot do if you have a stolen account. After each suggestion for something that doesnt work she says, So do that and then Ill escalate the case. Over two weeks I engage in a Kafkaesque conversation with Laura. She writes: Please send me a confirmation code. I get this missive during cello practice. I homeschool a musician. He practices all day and Im his moral support. Though I’m not averse to immorally sneaking some efforts on Twitter while praising his overly enthusiastic effort at Bach. I try twice to get a code. I write back that I cant get a code. What does Laura do all day at Twitter? I hope something super important because my son gets two hours of practice in before she responds. Can you try again? In it? I assume that she is paying attention to her job, and I am paying attention to my job, but my job is, theoretically, is to make sure getting into Juilliard is not the highlight of my kids life. He has to keep practicing. I have to keep my eye on the ball. So I am telling him use a metronome and slow down the metronome, while he argues with me from behind his music stand, I go back to the Twitter support page, assuming that Laura knows what shes talking about and Im not paying close enough attention. I ask her if there is something else I can do. I do this quickly, because I am telling my son he needs to have more focus. Its not just how many hours you put in, I tell him. You have to put in good hours. What is your goal for the next half-hour? To have a mom who doesnt like her phone more than her son. I should tell him to shut up. I should tell him he is the only kid in the world whose mom stays home all day practicing cello and piano I havent even gotten to that yet and still solely supports the family. Im pissed. Also, though, Im a career coach,  which is a joke because no one wants a career where you get paid to use a Twitter account and then when it gets fucking stolen you have to rely on someone like Laura who keeps asking the same stupid questions varying only her unpredictable prepositions. But I coach a lot of people who say they grew up with a single mom and the thing that was the hardest for them was their mom had such a hard time being all alone that they got the brunt of her emotional stress. So I say, Honey, Im so sorry. You are so important to me. And Im so happy to help by supporting you while you practice. Then I tell him Ill be right back and I sneak into the kitchen and type. Laura fuck you and fuck Twitter and obviously you have no fucking idea how to help me so stop your interrogation and ask someone who does know what the fuck they’re doing to fucking help you. And fuck you. And fuck Twitter. I delete that and write, Is there someone else you know at the company who could help me? The metronome continues and it is too fast, but I cannot fix everything. When we start piano, I get excited to check my email. I have a deal with my son that Ill do cello with him, but hes on his own for piano. So I sit next to the piano for two hours working. Its a perfect time to talk with Laura. As if this is a conversation. But she is gone. For a week. Other people who have a 130,000 followers might have done something more during that week. All I did was hate Twitter. Because during that week I found out Im one payment short on my sons new cello. The cello dealer wants to come repossess the cello. I want to say, do you know who I am? I could kill your whole reputation with just one tweet. But the cello world doesnt care about Twitter. Thank god, really, since I dont have an account anymore. Loss is traumatic. I have lost my Twitter account and almost lost a cello. I cannot make headway with the dealer because I cannot figure out how to find an extra $10,000. So I go back to Twitter. Laura. Nothing is happening and its been weeks. Can you send me a phone number I can call?” I do a few more days of cello practice and not piano practice. I field an email from the piano teacher telling me that the lesson is changed for Thursday and I cant remember what my other son has on Thursday but I know theres going to be a conflict. But I have read research about how we fixate on what we have that we might lose instead of what we might be able to get. I might be able to get sanity if I would just focus on earning money instead of freaking out over the cello getting repossessed. I tell myself to just write some stuff for unnamed client that is the equivalent of a car company that didnt test their seat belts. I could write something vague and promise myself I will never work with them again. Well. Actually, no one else would ever work with them, so maybe they would pay me $10,000 to write something for next week. That could work. I spend a day trying to figure out how to get a client to pay me $10,000 and in between desperate attempts at overpriced pitches, Laura writes back: Just checking! I hate her. I cannot write back because I will be too vulnerable in the email. I do not want her to know that I am conflating my Twitter account with my sons maybe-almost-repossessed cello. I do not want her to know that Im crying. I tell my son to focus on the tone of the C string. But the tone is not that bad, really. I’m mostly just bitching about the C string so I can feel like Im being productive at something, anything. Must do something. Must make headway with Twitter. Must do anything. The difference between a job thats terrible and a job thats good isnt the hours, its whether or not you feel like youre accomplishing your goals. I send Laura a long email. Trying to be nice and explaining how my Twitter account means a lot to me, and really, I need a different contact there. The email takes me a long time to write because kids interrupt me to ask me things like when’s lunch and wheres the charger? I send the email and take a deep breath. I tell myself I will be okay. I took action. And after I clear up the Twitter problem I will work on the cello problem. Then I see an auto-reply that Laura is not longer at the company. I do not cry. I just wait until my son takes a break, so I can sit down, uninterrupted, and think of a solution. To something. So here I am. Brahms in the background. Its beautiful music. For someone who is not having a nervous breakdown. Twitter? Are you listening? Hello? Is there anyone reading this who knows someone at Twitter? Can you tell them my account has been stolen? I dont have any more energy to keep trying. Also, please tell Jack Dorsey that if he sends $10,000 my son will serenade him at the office.

All About Resume Writing Chicago

All About Resume Writing ChicagoFor professional and personal writers, Chicago resumes are more than a bunch of data and details; they're personality notes. These are the anecdotes of a person you want to hire. And it is in this job interview that the resume will be judged by the decision maker whether to keep him on or remove him from the queue of applicants.Resume writing Chicago focuses on how a candidate will perform in an interview. It is not an opportunity to display creativity and unique ideas on the process of resume writing; it is a chance to show the qualities of a company is looking for in the new employee. You may have an idea about the format and way the job was done but, how will your applicant stand out from the rest and get an interview invite?First, know the type of job applicant you are dealing with. Look for the best suited, or at least the one you are most familiar with. Are you dealing with a business owner who has a different idea of how things should be done co mpared to other type of job applicant? If so, Chicago resumes can make things easier by focusing on how the boss performs during interviews.When you are deciding what type of sample resumes to write, try to remember one thing: the person who is hiring does not care about samples but only wants the information. That being said, he or she does not have time to read thousand of resumes before making a decision. In that case, knowing how the company works can prove to be helpful. You do not have to understand each and every detail of the job description, but you must know the methods employed by the company.Personal experience is the key to writing a resume and it would also be the easiest if it is tailored to fit the job you are applying for. Instead of wasting your time with huge mechanical layouts, try to tailor the resume to the job. Do not use bullet pointsor write down very long paragraphs that may look boring to the readers. Make sure you use colorful sentences instead of boring ones to make a good impression.To add even more interest to the resume, use bold font, bolder images of better quality. Try to use eye-catching paragraphs and make sure you add keywords to the resume so it would stand out among other resumes. Also, try to link all sections of the resume like job descriptions and work history so the employer may refer to those sections in order to find the specific job you are applying for.Using a one-page resume is good practice. However, to get the most out of your resume, a couple of pages is preferred. Chicago resumes are usually meant to be a little bit longer, especially the sections that contain more details and can be linked together. To ensure that the reader will read it to the end, it is important to let him or her know that you are not done yet.The final touch to resume writing Chicago is to make sure that your resume contains the specific skills the company needs. Write down those skills and make sure they include them in the job descrip tion. Provide links to websites containing examples or samples of these skills in the job description.

Why Its Easier Than Ever To Relocate For Your Career - Sterling Career Concepts

Why Its Easier Than Ever To Relocate For Your Career Why Its Easier Than Ever To Relocate For Your Career The following is a post from one of Sterlings guest bloggers, Jackie Edwards:     Leading research groups  have found that  more people are relocating for job opportunities than ever before. The current number of new hires that have had to relocate for a position has now climbed to 35 percent of the total. Some are using a new job as an excuse to move, whereas others are having to move to find a new job.  Mobility is rapidly becoming a new normal within the job market, and  leading companies are making it easier  to travel and move for the wealth of new employment opportunities springing up all over the country. However, many people are not willing to move their entire family’s across the country for a new job due to the stress that used to be associated with moving. Luckily, the technological revolution had made finding, buying, and moving into a new home even easier. Here are just some of the reasons why relocating for your career has become so much easier. Living situation   It used to be that moving was  one of the most stressful life events  a modern person could go through, but now it doesn’t even rank in the top ten most stressful things one can go through. Luckily, the times are changing, and  thanks to the growth in technological solutions,  moving across the country, or even the world, for a new job is significantly easier than it was even five years ago. Home sales have become exponentially faster, thanks for property purchase tracking apps. Realtors and estate agents are no longer stagnated by emails, phone calls, and visits, as software systems built specifically for home sales are streamlining the process of tracking and buying properties for buyers and realtors alike. You don’t need to buy virtual reality goggles to get a 360 view of your property, with staging, as 3D models are becoming the norm on all leading estate agency websites. Finding your perfect home before you see it in the flesh has removed almost half of the stress of relocating for your career. So, what else do you need to consider? Money, family, and moving forward Along with moving into a new environment and being surrounded by different colleagues, many of you have to bring your family to your new home. Moving can put  pressure on marriages and children alike, so ensuring you make time for your family during the movie, and while you’re acclimating to your new position is key. When moving to a new place for a new job, it’s easy to forget that all areas of your life have to keep moving forward that includes your family. Money is also frequently a concern when relocating for a new job. Luckily, being proactive costs nothing, so using the largely cost-free technological solutions for finding a job, a home, and any other requirements from your lifestyle, allows you to quickly search and find exactly what you’re looking for. It could be argued that many of the practical elements associated with relocating for work have largely been eradicated due to new technologies, so there is no longer an excuse to not seek out a career change. So, what’s next? Going through any significant life changes are always going to bring up concerns, worries, or sources of potential stress. However, finding your dream job in a city, town, or country you’ve always dreamed of living and working in has never been easier. Don’t wait until the last moment, and start to take advantage of everything the world is offering you. Even industry-leading writers like  Jane Hurst at Entrepreneur argue  that using social media can make finding a job, relocating, and moving, easier than ever before. If you’re ready for a change, the technological creations of the twenty-first century are here to help you move forward.

U.S. Jobs Data Isnt Pretty -

U.S. Jobs Data Isnt Pretty - The AP reports on the March 7th Jobs data, and it isnt pretty: Employers Slash 63,000 Jobs in February, Most in 5 Years, Feeding Recession Fears They also report that the unemployment rate actually went down  from 4.9% in January to 4.8%   in February, indicating that hundreds of thousands of people stopped bothering to look for work.  Hard hit sectors:   construction, manufacturing, retailing, financial services and professional and business services. Better sectors:   education, health care, leisure and hospitality and the government. The AP notes that the troubled job market   Certainly solidifies the notion that the economy has fallen into a recession, said Ken Mayland, economist at ClearView Economics. A silver lining (if there is one), as economists predicted, workers with jobs showed slight wage gains, to to $17.80 in February, a 0.3 percent increase from the previous month.   The AP reminds us that these tiny increases dont go far when prices for gas, food and other necessities continue to rise. All of this information should re-focus the job seeker (and job holder) on the importance of a well run job search (and strong performance at work).   If you are an unemployed worker, consider alternatives to dropping out of the search Keppie Careers   offers ideas for how to recession proof your career, suggestions of the best careers for todays economy, information about what to do next  if youve lost your job, rules for job hunting in a recession and  tips if your search is going on and on.  Ã‚   Be sure that your job search is on the right track.   Keppie Careers will write your resume,   help you with your correspondence and coach you through your interview and job hunt.   When you find your job, you will agree that  seeking help is a great investment in yourself.
