Job Tuesday

Hand Me that Spatula! A writer sends out three hundred rÃ©sumÃ©s in response to job postings [http://www.esquire.com/print-this/best-job-searches-0709-2]. He got only eight interviews and only two real prospects: "I applied for about three hundred jobs. I applied to

Monday Miscellany

Evil Marriage I've harped on this point before [https://thedailyeudemon.com/?p=7874]: the marriage of big government and big business. The nuptials have been going on since the 17th century. It infuriated Belloc and Chesterton, and it ought to infuriate the rest of us, but we just
