Talk:Chris's resume

To do

• Categorize
• Fix formatting
• wikify this biz-nitch.
• incorporate into the articles about his jobs. Also, CWChronology. --Champthom 23:40, 9 September 2009 (CEST)

I'd fix the formatting a bit more, but without access to the actual resume, I can't proceed without risking some minor betrayal of Chris's originial, terrible layout. Llort 00:53, 10 September 2009 (CEST)

• I think in the meantime, it wouldn't hurt to just put every "experience" into one heading and maybe make a note that Chris, for some reason, labeled each experience as "experience." It's a bit of an unorthodox departure from the original but it will help preserve the sanity of anyone reading it. Good work with the formatting, by the way. --Champthom 01:00, 10 September 2009 (CEST)
  • It doesn't help that Chris also headed every job that he listed with the placeholder phrase "Job Title" instead of actually entering in the job title for each fucking job! Llort 04:27, 10 September 2009 (CEST)
• Goddammit, Chris, this is not how to do a resume. If any employer saw this jumbled mess under "job objective", they'd toss it right out (it should be very TL;DR). Why didn't his mom and dad help him out on doing this at all? Sure, sure, mommy and daddy shouldn't do everything for him, but they are the only people that'd help him. Unless Bob didn't want to because of the gubbiement monies...oh I get it now. --Wild Sonichu 04:30, 10 September 2009 (CEST)

BAM job? LOL

I can't believe he put that down as a "job". I actually worked at that BAM but not during those years he was there. A friend/coworker of mine did, so I'll have to ask them about this in more detail, but I do vaguely remember them saying something about extremely obnoxious & smelly people. (We were complaining one day a year or two ago about the Yu-Gi-Oh players & he started talking about the Pokemon players.) Obviously, this isn't something he could put down as employment, but did anyway. I just think it's funny that he's trying to say that his Pokemon game playing was a job. If anyone ever does bother calling (which would mean that they would be actually entertaining the idea of hiring him, which isn't going to happen any time soon) I'll have an earful to give them!

• Yeah, pretty much. Chris is essentially conflating doing something for free with "volunteer work." The thing is, Chris wasn't playing Pokemon with these kids because he was a sweet and caring young man who cared about inner city youth or some shit like that, it's because he'd be playing it anyway and it just so happened that the only people who would play with him happened to be 8-10 years his junior. Furthermore, according to Mimms and Lucas, Chris never really did gym leader shit at the GAMe PLACe because the people running the place wouldn't let him, and only once when the regular guy was out did Chris really do anything. The rest of the time was Chris hovering around Megan and him yelling at black children to not steal his cards.

I'll see about copying and pasting the PVCC thread where Mimms and Lucas answer questions. --Champthom 01:30, 10 September 2009 (CEST)

Pffft!! He must have gone insane at the Midlo store- the old location got a lot of black kids coming in. I'm guessing that he probably wasn't a gym leader at BAM either- I was told that the Pokemon stuff was just like the Yu-Gi-Oh stuff- the kids would show up & play in their little cliques, then leave. There wasn't any real leadership within the groups as a whole, although they did have staff members who would watch over the kids to make sure that they weren't bothering anyone or fapping to book covers. (Somebody actually found a kid rubbing one out over the covers in the fantasy section. It'd be hilarious if that was Chris, but it was some 12 year old.) Meeko 02:53, 10 September 2009 (CEST)Meeko

1996, not 1998

Pokemon, the games that is, came out in early 1996 in Japan, not 1998. IMB706 01:40, 10 September 2009 (CEST)

• But Chris lives in the US, when it didn't come out until September 1998. --Champthom 01:55, 10 September 2009 (CEST)
