- Ср, 14:07: #marginnotes on Guerilla Marketing for Job Hunters 3.0, to be called #guerillamarketing. Warning: this will be cranky.
- Ср, 14:12: '...Guerillas pursue conventional goals in unconventional ways' #guerillamarketing pg xvii. More than that is involved
- Ср, 14:15: Guerilla armies, from what I remember of history, are small groups vs one bigger, better trained/armed group
- Ср, 14:19: Some guerillas want to redefine that group (American Revolution, for one), others to abolish it (Russian Revolution).
- Ср, 14:24: Unconventional means used by both. What if I want only to be part of the group? Gatekeepers block if you use convention.
- Ср, 14:28: What if you are afraid of ostracism? Of lectures about the rules? Of being dropped from consideration by other cos.?
- Ср, 14:29: The fear of being absolutely cut off from alternatives is more frightening to be than disapproval. People gossip, for one.
- Ср, 14:31: Yes, the irony of writing on a public forum about paranoia occurs to me. Then again, that is why guerillas have pseudonyms
- Ср, 22:19: Pardon my rambling this morning, I had no way of editing it without lag.
- Ср, 22:25: #guerillamarketing pg xxv 'chain letter email', may be the wrong term to use. Makes me worry any request for leads will be in spam folder

- Wed, 22:19: Pardon my rambling this morning, I had no way of editing it without lag.
- Wed, 22:25: #guerillamarketing pg xxv 'chain letter email', may be the wrong term to use. Makes me worry any request for leads will be in spam folder
- Wed, 22:31: #guerillamarketing pg xxviii 'Do you remember seeing 24M job openings?' Ok, I know 2009-2010, I was focused on applying to UW. So, no clue
- Wed, 22:32: I did make an effort to go to company websites & see their postings. However, search engines vary from co to co, so results varied.
- Wed, 22:35: Also varied: job titles. Some offered keyword search to compare tasks and requirements. However, even that was hard w/ synonyms or jargon
- Wed, 22:37: I can understand the purpose of jargon-separate the insiders from someone spraying resumes. However, I had been interested in words since 5
- Wed, 22:39: Siblings ask me what words mean. If it is in English, and I don't understand it, in my mind, the author has challenged me to a duel
- Wed, 22:41: However, I feel time pressure-get it out now or never. Cannot decipher every post :(
- Wed, 22:48: #guerillamarketing pg xxix Hey, I know how to do that! Next up, use strings with selected job titles to see if I come up
- Wed, 22:50: Also, build Boolean string to incorporate known variants of job family. Test & record results. Suggestions where?
