I hate braggarts.

I hate braggarts...

Therefore, weeding through this flood of resumes and cover letters is really getting to me. I might accidentally dismiss someone for having "flawless" project management skills, when really, I want someone with flawless project management skills. I kind of want to yell through the computer "OH MY GOD STOP TALKING ABOUT YOURSELF AND HOW GREAT YOU ARE," even though I fully asked them to.

And statistically, if these candidates are a representative sample of society, and 100% of these candidates have "Excellent interpersonal skills," I should be having a much easier time changing lanes on the freeway or trying to get answers from my health insurance. Liars.

My favorite part about San Francisco this weekend: the handwritten chalk sign out front of 826 Valencia that read "Definitely one of the top five pirate stores I've been to recently."
