Today I went down to the goverment's human resources centre to see what they have about finding work. I was really impressed. To think that I spent $8 on getting some resumes printed for the Keane job fair when my taxes have already paid for all the printing I could want at one of those well-equipped, well-staffed places. I'm going tomorrow to have my resume critiqued.

rand()m quote

If a person has ugly thoughts, it begins to show on the face. And when that person has ugly thoughts every day, every week, every year, the face gets uglier and uglier until you can hardly bear to look at it. A person who has good thoughts cannot ever be ugly. You can have a wonky nose and a crooked mouth and a double chin and stick-out teeth, but if you have good thoughts it will shine out of your face like sunbeams and you will always look lovely.

—Roald Dahl
